Sultan Minerals Inc. Adopts Shareholder Rights Plan

Sultan Minerals Inc. (SUL - TSX Venture) (the "Company") announces that the Board of Directors of the Company has elected to continue the Shareholder Rights Plan that expired on June 29, 2010. The new Shareholder Rights Plan was approved by the TSX Venture Exchange on May 28, 2010 and was presented to and approved by the shareholders of the Company at the Company's annual general meeting held on June 29, 2010.

The Shareholder Rights Plan has been designed to protect shareholders from unfair, abusive or coercive take-over strategies including the acquisition of control of the Company by a bidder in a transaction or series of transactions that may not treat all shareholders fairly nor afford all shareholders an equal opportunity to share in the premium paid upon an acquisition of control. The Shareholder Rights Plan was adopted to provide the Board with sufficient time, in the event of a public take-over bid or tender offer for the common shares, to pursue alternatives which could enhance shareholder value.

This Shareholder Rights Plan is not being adopted in response to any proposal to acquire control of the Company.

For more information, please see a copy of the Shareholder Rights Plan which has been filed under the Company's profile at www.sedar.com.

Sultan Minerals Discovers and Samples 800 Metres of Historical Drill Core At Its Kena Gold Property, BC

Sultan Minerals Inc. (SUL-TSX-Venture) ("Sultan") is pleased to report that field surveys, under the supervision of P&L Geological Services of Kamloops, B.C, are currently underway on its Kena Gold-Copper Property, located in southeastern British Columbia.

In July, Sultan completed an IP geophysical survey of the Kena Copper Zone on the property. The survey successfully defined a continuous six kilometre long geophysical anomaly trending south from the Gold Mountain and Kena Gold Zones to the south end of the Kena Copper Zone (see News Release dated July 20, 2010). Geophysical modeling and field geological studies suggest the anomaly is reflecting sulphide mineralization emplaced in a strongest and laterally persistent deformation zone that runs north-westerly across the property (see News Release dated September 9, 2009).

The current field surveys are designed to accurately locate diamond drill targets over this extensive geophysical target. Studies completed to date show that all significant showing and four historic gold mines on the property are associated with areas of strong IP geophysical response (see map). The program has also discovered that several historic diamond drill holes from previous exploration programs intersected the margins of the geophysical anomaly but in many cases were only partially assayed or were not assayed for copper. Sultan has now located, sampled and sent for assay approximately 800 metres of un-sampled diamond drill core remaining from the historical programs. Copper and gold assays for these drill holes are anticipated in approximately 3 weeks.

Present studies are focusing on the Kena Copper and Kena Gold zones but work may extend into the adjacent Gold Mountain zone. The planned diamond drill program is expected to commence at the end of August.

Linda Dandy, P.Geo., is the project supervisor and "Qualified Person" for the purpose of National Instrument 43-101, who has reviewed and verified the contents of this news release.
