Vancouver, British Columbia – March 14, 2013, Sundance Minerals Ltd., (“Sundance” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an option agreement with Inmet Mining Corporation (“Inmet”), whereby Inmet can earn up to a 70% interest in the Los Tamales Copper-Moly Property (“Property”). The Property is located in the premier copper producing state in Mexico, Sonora.

Chris Osterman, President and CEO of Sundance, stated, “We are pleased to have Inmet as a partner and move the project forward evaluating the target identified within the Company’s landholdings.”

THE PROPERTY:

The total Property area covers 3850.67 hectares in northern Sonora State. The region hosts large Cu-Mo porphyry deposits, such as Cananea, Los Humos, and la Caridad. Excellent road access provides year-round exploration.

Los Tamales is a porphyry copper-moly system 125 km southwest of Tucson, Arizona and 28 km south of the US-Mexican border. Discovered by water well sampling during a joint United States Geological Survey and Servicios Geologicos Mexicanos effort in the 1970’s, Los Tamales was the subject of two USGS open-file reports 94-685 and 84-289. The Mexican state company Azuferera Panamericana carried out a three hole, 1000 meter diamond drill program in the 1970’s. Dense stockworks of quartz-chalcopyrite-molybdenum veinlets outcrop in a potassically altered granodiorite and a Precambrian granite in the northwest portion of the Property, whereas widespread quartz-sericite-pyrite-tourmaline alteration occurs in a rhyolite porphyry to the south.

TERMS OF THE AGREEMENT:

The Los Tamales property is subject to an option agreement with Inmet Mining Corporation (“Inmet”). Inmet can earn-in up to 51% by expending US$5.0 million and paying Sundance US$500,000 over five years. Inmet may earn an additional 19% by delivering a Pre-Feasibility Study (subject to a maximum expenditure of US$20 million) and paying Sundance an additional US$2.0 million over three years.
