The Garnet Mine was acquired by Cominco in 1927 and in 1965 was put into production as part of Cominco's HB mining operation. The combined HB and Garnet mining operation was historically British Columbia's third largest lead-zinc mine. The mine produced a total of 6,656,101 tonnes (7,337,095 tons) of ore at an average grade of 4.1% Zn, 0.8% Pb and 4.8 g/tonne Ag. (BC Geological Survey, Detail Production Report, MINFILE). The mine closed in August 1978. As of December 31, 1978, the remaining measured and indicated reserves for the Garnet Deposit were reported at 409,000 tons, at
0.1 per cent lead and 4.1 per cent zinc (Canadian Pacific Limited, Form 10-K, December 31, 1978).

Readers are cautioned that the grades, resource figures and production figures quoted in this release are historical in nature and were compiled before the implementation of NI 43-101 Standards for Disclosure of Mineral Projects.

A large database of historical mine records including mine plans, mine sections, drill logs and geological maps was acquired with the property. Mr. Ed Lawrence, P.Eng., former Manager of Sultan's adjacent Jersey and Emerald Mines, is presently undertaking a review of the historical mine records.

Sultan is presently completing a program of geochemical sampling and a magnetometer geophysical survey on the Garnet property to explore for extensions to the historical lead-zinc mineralization. The two surveys will also explore the adjoining, recently acquired, HB Mine (please refer to Sultan's News Release of October 29, 2009).

Mr. Perry Grunenberg, P.Geo., of PBG Geoscience of Kamloops, B.C., will supervise the geochemical and geophysical programs. Mr. Grunenberg is Sultan's project supervisor and "Qualified Person" for the purpose of NI 43-101, "Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects".
