("Arianne") (TSX VENTURE: DAR)(FRANKFURT: JE9)(OTC.BB: DARUF) is pleased to announce that its Opinaca drilling campaign was completed February 28. Thirteen (13) drill holes for 2,976 metres were performed on the gold mineralizations of the Contact, Bull and Chino zones.
Preliminary results : Two of the three drill holes that tested the Contact zone returned significant intersections : drill hole OPI-08-02 returned 2.15 g/t Au on 3.80 m (from 440.40 m to 444.20 m along the hole), including 9.8 g/t Au on 0.50 m while drill hole OPI-08-03 returned 1.87 g/t Au on 8.50 m (from 435.50 m to 444.00 m, along the hole), including two sections grading 2.57 g/t Au on 4.0 m and 3.23 g/t Au on 2.0 m. These drill holes clearly show that the Contact zone discovered in 2006, present a minimum vertical extension up to more than 350 m.
Following these results, Mr. Bernard Lapointe, CEO of Arianne, comments : "We are very satisfied with these initial results. It shows that the Contact zone shows similarities with the Eleonore deposit located North of our property where economical grades were intersected at depths down to 1,000 m. We firmly believe in the potential of this mineralized zone that remains open for additional drilling."
