Perth, June 12, 2008 (ABN Newswire) - Sultan Corporation Limited (ASX:SSC)(PINK:SSCSF) is pleased to report it has received assay results from the 3-hole reconnaissance program at the Peelwood project. This project is located 75km south of Bathurst in central New South Wales.

Drilling at SP001 has identified near surface high grade Copper, Zinc and Silver mineralisation as detailed above.

This mineralisation was discovered only 25 metres below surface.

Peelwood is an historic silver and base metal mining area and is located approximately 1km south of Sultan Corporation Limited's John Fardy Project where a previously announced JORC resource of 862,000 tonnes at 6.7% zinc equivalent has been identified.

Sultan's JORC resource has been estimated in the categories of measured, indicated and inferred with decreasing levels of confidence as seen in Table 2

A full interpretation of results is underway, however the intersection from 30-34 metres is west of the projected extensions of the historical Cornish and Magazine Lodes and probably represents a separate 'western lode' with strike potential to the north.

A silver and base metal lode was discovered at Peelwood in 1870 and the Peelwood mine was worked intermittently during the periods 1870-1883, 1888-1895 and 1927. There is an incomplete recorded production of 487 tonnes of copper, 2326 tonnes of lead, 4054 tonnes of zinc, 141,000 ounces of silver and around 200 ounces of gold.

Twelve diamond core holes were drilled at Peelwood between 1951-2002.

Most drilling has been aimed at intersecting the previously worked Cornish and Magazine Lodes at depth, below and immediately north of the mined area however unmined 'western lodes' were also intersected.

Significant intercepts from this historical drilling are given in Table 1 and they are all considerably deeper that the upper SP001 intersection of the recent programme. Additionally the shallow intersection in SP001 is relatively enriched in copper and silver rather that zinc and copper in the deeper intersections of earlier programmes.
