SAGUENAY, QUEBEC - (Aug. 27, 2009) - The management of Arianne Resources Inc. ("Arianne" or "Company") (TSX VENTURE:DAN) (FRANKFURT:JE9) (OTCBB:DARUF) is pleased to announce preliminary results from its exploration program on the Heva East and West gold properties located in Abitibi, Quebec, Canada.
Heva East Property : This property (1,073 hectares; 100% Arianne) is located North of the Cadillac Fault which is well known for its high gold potential (see http://www.arianne-inc.com HEVA PROJECT). The summer exploration program targeted the south portion of the property which mainly consists of sedimentary rocks of the Cadillac Group. 54 grab samples were extracted and sent to the ALS Chemex laboratory in Val d'Or.
One of the samples, a sandstone containing 5% fine arsenopyrite located in the central part of the property, returned grades of 91.2 g/t Au. In the West part of the property, a sample found in a small quartz vein with traces of pyrite and embedded in an arsenopyrite mineralized conglomerate (1-2 %), returned 3.12 g/t Au. Finally, another sample located in the East portion of the property returned 0.72 g/t Au and consists of a sandstone containing 1 % arsenopyrite.
Those three samples are located within a corridor that extends on more than 3 km. This corridor is oriented 120 degrees and seems similar to the general orientation of the rock stratigraphy found on the property. It is also within this corridor that drill hole HEE-08-03 returned an intersection of 1.14 g/t Au on 1.5 metre (October 14, 2008 press release). This grab sample reignites the gold potential of the Heva East gold property. Additional sampling will take place in the coming weeks.
Heva West property : This property (167 hectares; 100% Arianne) is located near the Cadillac Fault, one km South of the Lapa mine (Agnico Eagle). Surface exploration was performed but returned no significant gold results.
