Sultan Minerals Commences Sampling Program on the Daylight Gold Property

Vancouver, November 5, 2013: Sultan Minerals Inc. (TSX-V: SUL; "Sultan") is pleased to announce that Jack Denny and Associates of Salmo, BC, have been contracted to conduct a prospecting and sampling program on Sultan's Daylight Gold Property located south of the community of Nelson, British Columbia.

The Daylight property was initially staked and worked in 1893 following discovery of the famous Silver King Copper-Silver Mine located 500 metres to the south. The Daylight Property is host to a number of vein, stockwork and porphyry style gold and gold-copper occurrences including the historic Starlight, Victoria, and Daylight gold-silver-copper mines.

The Starlight, Victoria and Daylight mines were operated intermittently from 1937 to 1949 and shipped high grade gold, copper and silver ores to Trail, BC for refining. The historic mines focused on quartz veins that were up to 1.5 metres in width. The quartz veins are surrounded by a low grade network of smaller veins in an altered shear zone that is reported to be up to 50 metres wide. Associated sulfides, consisting of pyrite with variable amounts of chalcopyrite occur both in the quartz veins and in the surrounding altered shear zone.

In 2003, Walcott and Associates completed an Induced Polarization (IP) survey over the Daylight Property. The survey results showed the three mines were connected by a large complex zone of strongly anomalous chargeability readings trending northwest across the Daylight property and open at both its southeastern and northwestern extremities (see map). Walcott concludes that there is reasonable probability for the existence of porphyry style gold-copper mineralization in the underlying rocks, and recommends that the target be investigated by trenching and diamond drilling. The anomaly was not followed up because Sultan did not completely own the Daylight property at that time.

The Daylight property was eventually acquired by Sultan in November 2011. The current prospecting and sampling program will attempt to verify the grades of the historic workings and prepare the zone for an expanded trenching and drilling exploration program in 2014.
