TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - March 23, 2010) - Sulliden Gold Corporation ("Sulliden", the "Company") (TSX:SUE - News; OTCQX:SDDDF) is pleased to announce that Kappes, Cassiday & Associates has been selected to conduct a bankable Feasibility Study to advance the development of its Shahuindo Gold Project in Peru. The completion of this report is expected in the fourth quarter of 2010. Kappes, Cassiday & Associates, based in Reno, Nevada is an internationally respected leader in the design, engineering and construction of gold and silver heap leach projects, with extensive experience working in Peru. Their expertise in heap leaching and metallurgical testing services, as well as their capabilities in mine design, construction and pit optimization will be an important part in the development of the Shahuindo project. The Feasibility Study will commence immediately and will build upon the positive economic results from the Preliminary Assessment, which was completed in January 2010. The Feasibility Study will also include an updated mineral resource model, which will incorporate the results from the latest exploration drill program completed in February 2010 and the data from the recent geotechnical drilling program. The updated mineral resource model is expected for completion in the second quarter of this year. Sulliden expects this portion of the study to demonstrate an expanding mineral resource, which would likely have positive effects on the production figures and the overall economics of the Shahuindo project. Joe Milbourne, VP Operations and Technical Services commented, "Awarding the Feasibility Study marks a critical milestone for Sulliden as we move the Shahuindo Project forward. We are very pleased to commence the next stage of development working with Kappes, Cassiday & Associates, and we believe their considerable experience in gold and silver heap leach design, testing and operations will be a strategic advantage for this project."

This area is one of the world's most prolific gold producing districts and is home to world-class gold mines including Barrick Gold's Lagunas Norte Mine, 30 km to the south, and the Yanacocha Mine operated by Newmont Mining Company, 80 km to the north; both million-ounce per year producing mines. A positive Preliminary Economic Assessment prepared by AMEC for the Shahuindo Gold Project was completed in December 2009 and Sulliden intends to proceed with a bankable Feasibility study in 2010. While the Company progresses towards its goal of reaching production by mid 2012, a significant focus is being placed on exploration drilling to expand the resource and reveal the upside potential of the Shahuindo deposit. Sulliden is led by a strong management team with the proven ability to develop, finance, operate and explore mining projects and is positioned to generate superior value for its shareholders.
