Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - September 12, 2013) - Sunset Cove Mining (TSXV: SSM) (BVL: SSM) is pleased to announce the results of 20 underground samples from five of the six recently discovered adits on its Carolay Silver Property in La Libertad, Peru.

The assays returned averages of more than 116 grams per tonne silver from nine of the chip samples. The samples come from the new adits announced on November 27th, 2012 and the San Sebastian adit announced on February 20, 2013. The distance from the main Carolay Adit (Adit A) to Adit F, which returned up to 483g/t silver over 20 cm in a channel sample and is driven on the main Carolay Vein, is more than 480 meters horizontally and approximately 100 meters vertically. The highest assay obtained was a sample with greater than 1,500 g/t in a chip sample of 16 cm from Adit C, approximately 100 meters west of the main Carolay Adit.

The distance from the mail Carolay Adit to the San Sebastian Adit is over 3 kilometers. The San Sebastian adit returned up to 51.6 g/t silver.

"With these high grade results with up to more than 1500 g/t of silver in one of the adits, we believe that the assays demonstrate the potential viability of the Carolay Silver Project," said Lorne Woods President of Sunset Cove Mining.

As seen in the table, the ALS lab in Lima processed over 20 underground channel samples. The results from the five higher adits show strong silver mineralization over an additional 480 meters of the Carolay vein to the west of the main Carolay Adit.

"It is important to remember that the silver grade obtained represents the parts of the vein that was left by previous miners who were attracted by the high grade silver in the Carolay Vein," added Marc Blais COO of Sunset Cove.

When combined with past results, the new data adds to Sunset Cove's geological understanding of the property and helps to build a more complete 3-D model of the potential for the Carolay Silver Vein. "With further exploration on the property we hope to be able to track the additional veins, like Carolay 1, for a similar length and with added drilling construct a maiden resource."

"It is positive Silver results like these and the potential at our graphite property in Quebec that we believe will add some significant value to our shares going forward." said Woods.
