Sultan Minerals Drills Bulk Tonnage Tungsten Mineralization at its Jersey-Emerald Property, BC, Canada

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - April 15, 2008) - Sultan Minerals Inc. (TSX VENTURE:SUL - News; FRANKFURT:RZN - News; "Sultan") is pleased to report assay results for 9 holes, JS07-30 thru JS07-38, from the on-going drill program on its 100% owned Jersey-Emerald tungsten-molybdenum Property in southern British Columbia. The holes explored the East Emerald Tungsten Zone and show 6 tungsten bearing horizons, several of which are molybdenum rich, hosted within a 700-foot thick stratigraphic unit. The holes confirm the continuation of the tungsten mineralization over a length of 2,000 feet (600 metres) and a width of 700 feet (200 metres). The zone remains open to the north, south and west.

The East Emerald Tungsten Zone is a sizeable zone of low-grade, bulk tonnage, tungsten mineralization discovered by drilling in 2006. Assays from the earlier drill holes completed in November 2006, which are also along the east side of the zone, showed grades of 0.15% WO3 across core widths ranging from 15.0 to 54.5 feet within a 201.3 foot wide zone that assayed 0.08% WO3 (see News Release of Jan 17, 2007). The present drill results show many intersections of 0.20% WO3 to 0.45% WO3, often with associated molybdenum values, suggesting that grades improve to the north.

The western up-dip extension of the mineralization is exposed on surface, suggesting that a significant percentage of the mineralization may be amenable to open pit mining. The mineralization lies directly above the Invincible decline, which is a large haulage tunnel designed to handle 40 ton trucks. This raises the possibility that the mineralization may be readily accessible to low-cost underground mining as well as surface mining operations.

Significant intersections from the recent drill holes are given in the following table:
