Sultan Minerals Inc.: Sultan Minerals Intersects 0.76% Tungsten (WO3) on Its Jersey Emerald Property, B.C.

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Sept. 28, 2009) - Sultan Minerals Inc. (TSX VENTURE:SUL)(FRANKFURT:RZN) ("Sultan") is pleased to announce results from 6 diamond drill holes completed on its Jersey-Emerald Property, Salmo, British Columbia. This drilling intersected some of the highest grade tungsten mineralization intercepted to date, including 2.5 feet of 1.17% WO3 (within a 13 foot zone averaging 0.76% WO3.

The 6 holes were completed on the recently acquired Victory Tungsten Deposit located approximately 3.5 kilometres north of the historic tungsten mines on the Jersey property. The high grade tungsten intercepts verify the presence of a resource reported by previous operators during exploration in the 1960's and 1970's. A zone of high grade tungsten mineralization, including 84,000 tons of 0.54% WO3, (not NI 43-101 compliant) was reported for the historic drilling.

These results confirm the presence of a high grade tungsten resource on the Victory site. The results also show there is good potential for tungsten resources away from the historically mined Emerald, Dodger, Feeney and Invincible tungsten mines on the Jersey Property. Combined with the drill results from the Lost Creek valley, 1.5 kilometres to the south of the Emerald Mine, (see news release of August 20th, 2009) these results demonstrate potential for tungsten exploration along a 7.0 -kilometre corridor of prospective geology. Three drill holes completed in the current program, VIC0901 through VIC0903, returned exceptional tungsten values such as 0.42% over 13.1 ft including 0.69% over 4.8 feet and 0.76% over 13.0 ft including 1.17 % over 2.5 feet. Three holes VIC0904 through VIC0906 missed the tungsten zone and returned no values. Significant assays for holes VIC0901 through VIC0903 are tabled below.

Because of encouraging exploration results, Sultan has recently expanded its holdings in the Jersey Emerald area to more than 18,000 hectares (Please see Map). With mineral holdings totalling more than 180 square kilometres Sultan is currently the largest mineral tenure holder in the Kootenay Arc region of BC.

The Jersey-Emerald Tungsten mine was the largest tungsten producer in British Columbia and second largest in Canada. The mine went into production in 1943 and produced from five deposits until it closed in 1973 due to poor tungsten prices. In January 2009 Sultan completed an updated resource estimate showing a remaining measured plus indicated resource of 2,719,000 tons averaging 0.358% WO3, and an additional inferred resource of 2,320,000 tons averaging 0.341% WO3 at a 0.15% WO3 cut off.

The mineralization intersected by the current drill program remains open along strike suggesting significant potential for expansion. Sultan is currently undertaking geophysical surveys over the Victory Tungsten deposit and south of the Lost Creek mineralized zone. These surveys will assist in tracing out the prospective tungsten zones along the favourable, 7.0 -kilometre corridor.

In addition to its tungsten mineralization, the Jersey-Emerald was British Columbia's second largest lead-zinc mine. A study of the potential for remnant lead-zinc-silver mineralization within and adjacent to the historic Jersey mine is presently being carried out by Giroux Consultants Ltd. The study includes more than 3,000 historic drill holes as well as widespread drill testing completed by Sultan in 2007 and 2008 and results of the study are expected shortly. The lead-zinc resource is expected to supplement the NI 43-101 tungsten resource released January 21, 2009, and will assist in scoping the potential for a combined metals (Pb-Zn-Ag-WO3) multi-element mine on the property.

Perry Grunenberg, P.Geo., of PBG Geoscience from Kamloops, BC, is managing the geophysical survey and exploration drill program and is Sultan's project supervisor and "Qualified Person" for the purpose of NI 43-101, "Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects". Mr. Ed Lawrence, P.Eng., former Manager of the Jersey and Emerald Tungsten Mines is supervising the geological review of the Jersey Zinc Mine.
