Vancouver, British Columbia / May 6th, 2014 / SOUTHERN SUN MINERALS INC. (“SOUTHERN SUN”) (TSX.V: SSI.P), announces that it is currently conducting due diligence on a number of business proposals.
Currently, the Company has not concluded an agreement nor has it determined through negotiations, any actual terms or conditions at this time. The Company is aggressively pursuing various opportunities and is continuing to review proposals that meet the Company`s criteria for investment or acquisition in areas of agri-mining, research and development, science and technology, retail products and the legal industrial hemp and medical marijuana business sectors.
Although the Company may not necessarily conclude any new business ventures, it will take the necessary steps to comply with all regulatory and exchange rules in the event it does do so.
On other matters, the Company is considering plans for a summer exploration program on its Galleon project in Alaska. The property is located approximately 96 km (60 miles) due south of Fairbanks, Alaska. The Galleon Project has significant VMS mineralization occurrences that are known at 4 main locations on the property. The Property consists of 36 quarter-section State of Alaska mining claims. Past exploration, including mapping, rock and soil sampling and trenching as well as limited drilling, has been conducted on the Property intermittently since its discovery in 1975 by Resource Associates of Alaska. In 2011, a dipole-dipole complex resistivity induced polarization geophysics was conducted over 3.91 lie-km. Known mineralization on the Property occurs at three prospects; however, this observation must be qualified by stating that much of the Property is virtually unexplored. Mineralization on the Property is characterized by highly anomalous gold, silver, lead and zinc and is interpreted as VMS type. A 2014 exploration program consisting of soil sampling, mapping, the completion of a property-wide geologic map and a possible follow up to the detailed CRIP survey is currently in the planning process.
In view of the above, the company is giving consideration for a financing which would be applied to advance our existing project and for working capital.
On Behalf of the Board of Directors

Chairman & CEO
