Arianne resume exploration works on its Opinaca and Lac H

SAGUENAY, QUEBEC, Nov 15, 2007 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX News Network) --

Arianne Resources Inc. ("Arianne") (TSX VENTURE: DAR)(FRANKFURT: JE9)(OTCBB: DARUF) is pleased to announce that it has resumed exploration works on its Opinaca and Lac H (lifting of option underway) properties located in James Bay. Additional line cutting is underway and will be followed by IP and InfiniTEM geophysical surveys. A diamond drilling campaign will follow in early 2008 in order to complete the 2007 drilling campaign that was stopped at the end of the summer due to the contruction of Hydro-Quebec's road to access the Eastmain 1-A construction site. This road will cross Arianne's work camp and the camp had to be relocated.

New polymetallic targets : An InfiniTEM survey will take place on part of the Lac H property (SOQUEM & ARIANNE) which is adjacent to the Opinaca property where rocks favorable to the presence of VMS-type deposits (Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide) were observed during the 2007 campaign. Already, some previous IP conductors are known to be linked with humus ground geochemical anomalies and are priority drilling targets in order to test the base metal potential.

VMS type deposits were identified South of our area and they contain copper, zinc, silver and lead (see Ressources Sirios, Pontax property). These VMS can include some gold.

Induced polarisation survey (IP) : This survey will take place on the Opinaca property in order to improve the definition of the Chino gold showing (3.30 g/t Au on 6.75 m) and to verify the presence of similar structures in neighbouring rocks.

Diamond drilling : A 3,000-meter drilling campaign will start early 2008 to test the Chino zone in-depth as well as its lateral extensions. The Contact and Bull zones will also be drilled in-depth. The polymetallic targets mentioned herein will aslo be drill tested.

About the 2007 works : 2007 prospection works were done on the entire Opinaca/Lac H property as well as on the Komo and Wabamisk properties to the West and the Black Dog property to the East. 665 samples were extracted by rock hammer and were sent out for gold and base metal assays (Cu, Ag, Zn and Pb). Close to 2,000 humus samples were assayed for gold and metals.

Additional anomalous gold grades were added on the Lac H and Komo properties. On the Lac H property, a sample returned 1.3 g/t Au within the felsic dome, where the VMS are searched. Also, two samples returned 0.9 and 1.8 g/t Au on the West extension of the Aieul showing (37.4 g/t Au ; 2006). These new areas were resampled this Fall and assays are still pending. Results will be announced as soon as they become available.
