Sultan Minerals begins Jersey-Emerald drilling

Mr. Arthur Troup reports

SULTAN MINERALS RESUMES DRILLING TO EXPAND JERSEY EMERALD RESOURCE

Sultan Minerals Inc. has begun its planned 2007 underground drilling program at its Jersey-Emerald property near Salmo, B.C. The program, comprising up to 14,000 feet (4,200 metres) of NQ-2 diamond drilling, is designed to expand the tungsten and molybdenum zones reported in the National Instrument 43-101-compliant initial resource estimate on Nov. 8, 2006. Drilling is being carried out from the historic Jersey lead-zinc mine workings in order to penetrate and delineate the underlying tungsten- and molybdenum-bearing horizons.

The Jersey-Emerald property is host to the historic Jersey lead-zinc mine, British Columbia's second largest lead-zinc producer, and the former Emerald tungsten mine, Canada's second largest tungsten mine. Both mines were closed in 1973 due to low commodity prices. The initial resource evaluation released in November, 2006, shows there is a remaining drilled out tungsten resource that compares favourably with the published reserves of the Western world's three largest tungsten mines.
