Sunset Cove Announces Three New Anomalies Found on Carolay Silver Polymetallic Property

TORONTO, April 18, 2012 /CNW Telbec/ - (TSX: SSM) (BVL: SSM) Mr. Lorne Woods, President and CEO of Sunset Cove announced today that recently completed geophysical surveys including an Induced Polarization (I.P.) has led to the discovery of three new Anomalies on the Carolay property. In addition the size of the two previously identified anomalies has increased significantly in width and length along their axes.

"Because of the new information from the geophysical surveys our geological team has become very enthusiastic," said, Woods. "They believe that it is becoming clear that there are a number of parallel zones to the Carolay vein and that the magnetic profiles match up well to the Carolay Vein which means they may be similar enough to contain conducting massive, semi-massive and polarizable disseminated sulfides which could correspond with economic mineralizations."

The Carolay 1 Anomaly has now been measured at 300 meters wide by a length of 1.6 km. This anomaly is where the Carolay Vein is located. "The Carolay Vein appears to be similar in length to the anomaly, 1.6 km, which makes it more interesting and that has piqued our interest," added Woods.

The Carolay 2 Anomaly has an ellipsoid shape and has now grown to measure 1.2 km by 950 meters wide. In this anomaly we have several vein systems and networks corresponding with the size of this anomaly. The IP profiles indicate the potential presence of mineralization at depth.

Sunset Cove is currently drilling on Anomaly number 1 and will drill the second Anomaly in the second half of this year.

Recent work has found Anomaly 3, located 750 meters southeast of Anomaly 1, which is parallel to the Carolay structural system. In terms of structure, it matches the magnetic profiles of the Carolay vein very well. Anomaly 3 is 100 meters wide and 350 meters long.

Anomaly 4 is smaller and located north of Anomaly 2 and is 525 meters in length by 260 meters in width. In addition, just to the southwest of Anomaly 4 is a fifth Anomaly that measures 1000 meters by 500 meters. Further work needs to be done to confirm that these two anomalies are related to the well-known Anomaly 2.

In regards to resistivity, the resistive bodies match and are located within the chargeability area, and also, growing in number as they go deeper. This might indicate that silification linked to mineralization can be found at depth.

The Geophysical Report concludes that the Mag, IP and Spectrometric surveys have helped to identify well-defined potentially mineralized targets to be tested by diamond drilling in the near future.

"This is all good news," said Lorne Woods, President and CEO of Sunset Cove Mining. "The more we look, the more positive signs are seen that there may be significant mineralization at Carolay."
