El Nino Ventures Reports High Grade Drill Results On The Kasala Project In The DRC

  • Numerous intercepts with widths from 50 metres to 91 metres of mineralization
  • High grade intercepts: 
    • 7 metres @ 7.07% Cu (Hole MDB-DD-019)
    • 10 metres @ 6.07% Cu (Hole MDB-DD-011B)
    • 11 metres @ 3.68% Cu (Hole MDB-027)
    • 21 metres @ 2.42% Cu (Hole MDB-026)
  •  IP program indicates extension of Kasala Main Zone to the south east

On January 12, 2009, El Niņo Ventures announced the drilling results from its Kasala Project (P.R. 5214) in the Democratic Republic of Congo ("DRC"). These results confirm the presence of significant mineralization within the Kasala Main Zone with the potential for expansion based on our recently completed Induced Polarization ("IP") Survey. The Company has a 70 percent interest in this project with an option to earn up to 90 percent on terms to be negotiated and the Company holds title to this property through one of its Congolese subsidiaries.

The Company completed 56 Reverse Circulation ("RC") drill holes (totaling 5883 metres) and 20 Diamond Drill ("DD") drill holes (totaling 3583.6 metres) across the P.R. 5214 permit. Of these holes, 35 RC holes (totaling 3336 metres) and 15 DD holes (totaling 2458.6 metres) were completed within the Kasala Main Zone area (Figure 1).

Allan Lines, exploration manager for El Nino Ventures Inc., reports that "with the latest assay results we have confirmed that copper mineralization in the Kasala area has a minimum strike length of approximately 800 metres and a width of approximately 250 metres. Intersections in some of the drill holes completed in 2008 indicate thicknesses of as much as 91 metres. The Kasala Main Zone is still open in all directions and at depth.

Figure 1. - Kasala Main Zone Area

An IP survey has now been completed across the Kasala area and an additional area to the northwest of the Kasala Main Zone which is being referred to as Kasala Nord. The IP program over the Kasala Main Zone has delineated an extension of the zone to the southeast of the area of the 2008 drilling campaign, this has identified a number of additional drill targets which will be tested during the 2009 drill program. The IP program over the Kasala Nord area has also generated several targets for additional testing -- a detailed soil sampling program is planned for this area, the results of which, in conjunction with the IP data will be used to plan a scope drilling program over the Kasala Nord area.

The 2009 field campaign is planned to include additional detailed soil sampling on the Kasala Main Zone and Kasala Nord, an extension of the IP grid on the Kasala Main Zone towards to the south east, and 7,500 metres of DD to test newly determined targets on the Kasala Main Zone.
"

Jean Luc Roy President & CEO of ELN states: "These results confirm that our 2008 drilling campaign has proven to be very successful. The Kasala project will be the primary focus for the Company's 2009 advanced exploration program. This project, combined with our other highly prospective research permits in the DRC, position El Nino to grow and succeed in its goal of confirming a mineable deposit in the DRC.

The Kasala project has returned for the Company very consistent and significant results which the Company will build upon in 2009. An extension of the Main Zone has been identified by the IP program that was completed in December 2008. The Company has a 70 percent interest in the Project and has an option to earn up to 90 percent on terms to be negotiated. This project is not subject to the Mining Review being carried out by the Government of the Democratic Republic of Congo and title on this property is held by a Congolese Subsidiary controlled by the Company, with a 70 percent interest in the share capital.
