[{"type":"text","content":"\n\n\n\nVANCOUVER, Dec. 7 /CNW/ - El Nino Ventures Inc. (\"El Nino\") (TSX.V: ELN;\nOTCBB: ELNOF; Frankfurt: E7Q) is pleased to announce that results were\nreleased from the Mount Fronsac North Infill Drilling.\n\n\nAll assay results were received for three drill holes recently completed\ninto the Mount Fronsac North Deposit and targeted on a coincident Titan 24\nanomaly located at a vertical depth of 300 m and up dip from high grade\nintercepts recorded in a previous drill program in 2000. The most significant\nassay results for these drill holes are as follows:\n\n\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nDDH From (m) To (m) Width (m) Zn % Pb % Ag g/t\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nELN-06-097 306.85 309.85 3.0 5.68 1.93 39.0\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nELN-06-101 269.90 272.90 3.0 5.04 0.28 11.4\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nELN-06-100 322.10 327.00 4.9 1.15 0.22 5.4\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n\nThis $5 million program over the Bathurst Mining Camp will include 23,500\nmetres of drilling to be completed by March 2007.\n\n\nJean Luc Roy, President of El Nino states - \"These results are very\nencouraging and El Nino plans to assess this area in detail over the next few\nmonths to see if a resource can be outlined. We now have been drilling for\nover a month in Bathurst and we are very happy with the rate of success in\nfinding sulphide mineralization on our targets. The Titan 24 Geophysics\nprogram is proving very effective in outlining and defining our drill targets\nand we look forward to much more news out of the camp as we continue drilling\nover the winter months through to the end of March 2007. We now have two drill\nrigs on the site and a third will be in place by the beginning of December to\ndrill outlined Titan 24 targets, along the Mine Horizon between the Brunswick\nNo.12 mine and Brunswick No.6.\n\n\nQuality Control\n\n\n---------------\n\n\nDrill core is logged at the Brunswick No. 12 minesite exploration core\nshack and mineralized interval samples are taken from the drill core (NQ size)\nsawed in half with one half sent to the Brunswick No. 12 laboratory and other\nhalf retained for future ...
