VANCOUVER, Nov. 28 - El Nino Ventures Inc. ("El Nino") (TSX.V: ELN; OTCBB: ELNOF; Frankfurt: E7Q) is pleased to announce the completion of a 7,000 meter reverse circulation drill program on its Copper project, in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
All drill chip samples are being collected under strict supervision and will be assayed by ALS Chemex laboratories in South Africa. ALS Chemex is an internationally recognized and respected assay company. Results should start coming in towards the end of December.
Jean Luc Roy, President of El Nino states, "I am very pleased that we were able to complete 7,000 meters of drilling this season, it is a testament to our very efficient team in the DRC. The company's goal was to fast-track the initial exploration on our licenses and I strongly believe that by achieving our goal we have demonstrated our ability to operate in the DRC. This initial drill program will give our technical team substantial information which will be used to plan and prepare our 2008 exploration program. The next few months will be used to compile the data from the initial drill program during which we will also seek to increase our land position in the DRC."
