Sultan Minerals and Altair Gold Amend Agreement relating to Kena Gold Property

Vancouver, July 2, 2013: Sultan Minerals Inc. (TSX-V: SUL; "Sultan") is pleased to report that it has signed an amending agreement (the "Second Amending Agreement") with Altair Gold Inc. ("Altair", TSX-V:AVX) amending the Letter Agreement dated December 30, 2011, as amended on December 28, 2012, between Sultan and Altair relating to Altair's option (the "Option") to earn up to a 75% interest in the Kena gold project near the town of Nelson in southeastern British Columbia (the "Kena Gold Property"). The Kena Gold Property comprises 152 claim units for a total of 7,609 hectares and covers approximately 8,000 metres of strike length on a district-scale gold and gold-copper system. Kena is an advanced gold project given the significant gold resource already outlined, the potential to expand it, and the opportunity to make new discoveries on the other exciting targets.

The current resource estimate for the Kena Gold Property is set out in the technical report dated May 15, 2013, entitled "Technical Report for the Kena Property" prepared for Altair by Gary Giroux, P. Eng., MASc. and Vivian Park, P. Geo. The mineral resource statement for the Kena Gold Property, as extracte from the 2013 Kena Technical Report, is summarized in the table below. The effective date of this resource estimate is February 7, 2013. The mineral resource statement is reported at a cut-off grade of 0.3 gpt gold.

Under the terms of the Second Amending Agreement, the term of the Option has been extended by an additional two years. In addition, to earn an initial 60% interest in the Kena Gold Property under the terms of the Second Amending Agreement, Altair would have to incur exploration expenditures on the Kena Gold Property of $ 6.15 million over the next 4.5 years and pay Sultan $2 million ($400,000 in 2013) and issue a total of 2,666,666 shares (500,000 shares in 2013) over the next four years.

"Despite our successful drill campaign in 2012 and significant upward revision to the resource estimate, whereby we were able to increase our Inferred resources by 173%, current market conditions dictate that we adjust our strategy with respect to the development of the Kena Gold Property. We have worked cooperatively with Sultan to ensure that we evolved a new commitment structure that is fair to all parties concerned," stated Altair's President & CEO, Fayyaz Alimohamed.

The Second Amending Agreement is subject to acceptance for filing by the TSX Venture Exchange.

The Qualified Person for the Kena Gold Property is Mr. Warner Gruenwald, P.Geo. and VP Exploration for Altair.
