In 1897, at the height of a major U.S. recession and banking crisis, a gold discovery on the Klondike River in Yukon Territory triggered one of the biggest gold rushes ever seen. Now, more than a century later, history is – sort of – repeating itself.

No, the world's downtrodden aren't beating a frenzied path to a harsh, remote swath of the Canadian north this time around. But the 2009 recession and banking crisis has set off a rush to invest in gold and other precious metals at unprecedented levels – a move that has tightened the global supply/demand picture and helped push prices to record highs. And increasingly, they are opting for the tangible comfort of physical gold – actual gold bars and coins that they can cling to in troubled times.

“When the banking crisis hit [last fall], we saw an avalanche of demand,” said James DiGeorgia, a Florida-based coin and precious metals dealer and editor of the Gold & Energy Advisor newsletter. “People are scared to death that all this debt [being taken on by governments] is going to debase the [U.S.] dollar and other currencies around the world.”.....

Since commencing reverse circulation (RC) drilling operations on PR5217 on April 14th, 2008, El Nino Ventures have completed 11 RC holes totaling 925 m over an area of prospective rock formation of the Mines Group. This area was previously tested during El Nino Ventures' 2007 RC drilling campaign - one of the four holes drilled in this area during the 2007 program (ANCU-001) intercepted 10 m of 3.51% copper. The 2008 campaign is continuing with holes that had been planned before heavy rains forced an early end to the 2007 program. An additional 7 RC holes are planned for this area.

The RC drill will next move to the western central area of PR5217 where regional soil sampling completed during the rainy season has identified a 2.5 km long copper anomaly along an east-west trending fault identified by regional mapping. A minimum of 8 RC drill holes are planned to test this soil anomaly and structural corridor (see Figure 2) to depths of approximately 100 m. Several diamond drill holes are also planned to assess this structure at depth. The diamond drilling program is planned to start this week, when a diamond drill rig from Boart-Longyear mobilized to PR5217.

Other near-term activities part of the program, include a 133 line km ground magnetometer geophysical survey in the south-eastern corner of PR5215 to aid in tracing numerous cross-cutting structures identified from interpretation of the 2007 Heli-Mag geophysical survey that El Nino Ventures had flown over four of the company's permits. Upon completion of the ground magnetic survey and interpretation of the results of this program, it is planned to drill test several targets in this complex structural area which hosts prospective Roan Supergroup strata.

An auger drill program will be undertaken on PR5214 to obtain soil samples under marshy grounds (See Figure 3) which cover areas mapped as Roan strata. The auger drill will be used to collect soil samples from 12 to 15 meters depth, below the alluvial soils which might otherwise mask the geochemical signature of any metal deposits under these marshes.

Regional soil sampling on PR2461 will start on Saturday, May 3rd, and is expected to take approximately 7 to 10 days to complete.

El Nino's DRC Exploration Manager, Allan Lines, states that "it is a busy and exciting time for us. We are once again drilling with Titan who is doing a fantastic job for us on the RC. Our diamond drill from Boart-Longyear will be on site early next week and we will start testing known mineralized structures at depth. Our multi-disciplinary approach is continuing to generate new targets for us - the soil geochem and our airborne geophysics have identified a number of new areas that we plan to test with the RC drill this year."

The company also has received about 75 percent of the outstanding drill results from their 2007 drill campaign. Results from 44 shallow reverse circulation holes show some mineralization up to 13,750 ppm Cu and 3960 ppm Co over narrow intervals. These holes totaled 2,320 meters of drilling.

These results are west of the 2.5 kilometer anomaly identified by the soil geochemical survey and the airborne geophysical survey.

Jean Luc Roy President & CEO states: The 2008 drill program is well underway and the company is looking to expand on the results it published to date and also to test drill several significant areas which have yet to be tested. The interpretation work done by our technical team gives us a much more focused approach for the 2008 program. Work done in 2007 has identified a high grade copper zone and we will look to expand that zone in the next few months. We are also very encouraged by the results from our geochemical soil sampling campaign carried out during the rainy season. The company has purchased a prep laboratory facility and we hope that this will cut down the turnaround time in getting results.

This preliminary 4000m drill program will test the two principal target horizons within the Lower Carboniferous limestone stratigraphy. Initial holes will test Navan Bed units on licences near Granard northwest of Dublin. Subsequent holes will test Waulsortian Reef targets on licences located southwest of Dublin.

Ireland's mineral industry took off in the early 1960's with the discovery of the Tynagh zinc-lead-silver deposit in County Galway which was followed by the 1970's discovery of the world class Navan zinc-lead deposit located northwest of Dublin. The high grade Galmoy and Lisheen deposits located southwest of Dublin were discovered in the mid 1980's and 1990 respectively.

Ireland now provides a very significant proportion of Western Europe's zinc/lead concentrate needs.

VANCOUVER, April 14 - El Nino Ventures Inc. ("El Nino") (TSX.V: ELN; OTCBB: ELNOF; Frankfurt: E7Q) is pleased to announce that their 2008, 25,000 meter drill program is underway in the DRC.

The company will drill a minimum of 25,000 meters over the next 5 months. The Company will do a minimum of 12,500 meters of RC drilling and 12,500 meters of Diamond Drilling. On April 12, 2008 the first RC drill rig started drilling the high grade copper zone where the company reported 3.5% Cu over ten meters in its initial drill program.

On May 1, 2008 two more drill rigs will be in operation. One of the drill rigs will be a diamond drill and this rig will focus on the copper showing now being drilled with the first RC rig and drill test the full length of the anomaly which runs just over 3 kilometers. When that drill rig is in operation the RC drill rigs will drill test 4 other areas of interest which have yet to be drill tested. These areas are located on our land position.

Mr. Allan Lines, our Exploration Manager, has prepared the 2008 exploration and drill program in conjunction with Caracle Creek International Consulting Inc. (CCIC). CCIC was retained by El Nino to review all the technical data and from that review the 2008 exploration program has been developed.

On our new acquisition announced in February 2008, airborne geophysics will be flown in the very near term, geochemical sampling will be carried out and later on in the season and we expect to drill test this permit.

Jean Luc Roy, President of El Nino states, "The dry season in the DRC is upon us and I am very pleased to announce the start of our extensive exploration and drilling program for 2008. We will follow up on promising results already obtained and we look forward to drill test other areas that show strong indicators on our permits. We are embarking on a very ambitious program and we will keep everyone up-to-date on the progress of our efforts in the DRC."

VANCOUVER, March 14, 2008 - El Nino Ventures Inc. ("El Nino") (TSX.V: ELN; OTCBB: ELNOF; Frankfurt: E7Q) is very pleased to announce further analytical drill results from the recently completed 6200m reverse circulation drill program on its 70% owned Research Permit 5217 in the DRC Congo. Analyses were carried out by ALS CHEMEX, Johannesburg, S.A. Quality control procedures were strictly adhered to and included taking drill chip samples directly from the drill return by the project geologist, placing them in sealed bags and sending them directly to ALS Chemex in Johannesburg by air freight, who carried out the preparation and analysis.

The Company has received additional assay results from drill hole ANCU-001 which previously reported 3.5% Cu over a ten meter interval from 12m to 22m.  Assays for meter 22 to 25 are still pending but results from 25m to 50m are as follows:

25 to 30m        0.24% Cu

30 to 35m        0.36% Cu

35 to 40m        0.50% Cu

40 to 45m        0.43% Cu

45 to 50m        0.35% Cu

These latest results expand the apparent thickness of the mineralized zone to in excess of 35 meters.  We anticipate that the current mineralization, which lies at the margin of 2.8km long geophysical anomaly, will extend along strike as this anomaly is fully drill tested.

The Company has also received drill results from holes AN2-001, AN2-002, AN2-003, AN2-006, AN2-008 and AN2-009. These holes were drilled in an area of artisanal workings where workers were formerly mining high grade cobalt mineralization. This zone is outside the copper zone and is south of the geophysical anomaly. Drilling completed to date in this area has not been ideal because it was done in the rainy season and wet conditions prevented us from being able to properly assess the cobalt potential of this area because of difficulties in accessing and collaring holes within the workings. Also significant sample loss was experienced due to the extremely wet drilling conditions. ELN plans to fully test the Cobalt potential of this zone once field conditions permit.

Significant values intersected in the above holes are:

AN2-001      0 to 1m               0.72% Co and 0.50% Cu

                     35 to 51m           Values ranging from 180 ppm to 0.53% Co and 

                                                130ppm to 0.4% Cu

AN2-002      37 to 54m           Values up to 0.14% Co and 0.21% Cu

AN2-008      15 to 36m           Values from 630ppm to 0.29% Cu

AN2-009      10 to 23m           Values from 0.12%ppm to 0.24 Cu

Jean Luc Roy, President of El Nino stated, "I am very pleased with the additional results from hole ANCU-001 as they provide us with an indication of the substantial thicknesses of copper mineralization that may be found in this area. Based upon the interpretation of our recently completed airborne geophysical survey, we believe we may be on the edge of a mineralized system which extends for over 2.8 kms in strike length. We will drill test the extent of this anomaly starting in April. We have also identified four other geophysical anomalies on our other permits which will be tested in the forthcoming drill program.

Although the results from the initial drilling in the artisanal area are lower than expected, we will re-drill test this area in the dry season when we will be able to drill right through this artisanal zone. We were unable to do this in the initial drilling as we had to locate the drill collars further back than we had intended because of ground conditions. This zone was high graded for cobalt by artisanal workers and extends over an area 450 meters long and 60 meters wide.

At present the geochem survey results are being compiled and analysed by CCIC and our technical team and we will have a finalized exploration program for 2008 by the end of the month and anticipate our 25,000 meter drill program to start by mid-April."

This release is in response to the issues that were addressed at the Indaba Mining Conference in Capetown, South Africa on February 5th 2008, pertaining to the review by the Government of some sixty mining contracts in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).

El Nino Ventures land position is not affected by this review of mining contracts and the company will continue to conduct business in the DRC under the rules and regulations of the New Mining Code that came into effect in 2003.

Since El Nino acquired its five Research Permits, covering more than 350 square kilometers in the DRC, it has made it abundantly clear that it will fast track its exploration efforts in order to identify economic mineralization on its properties. El Nino President, Jean Luc Roy, stated "Our first set of assay results, recently reported from our initial drill program, have demonstrated that we are in a highly mineralized area. Additional assay results from our drill program will be reported when received. Our 2008 drill program, scheduled to commence in April 2008, is now being finalized".

El Nino's most recent acquisition in the DRC was announced on February 4th 2008. This property is within six kilometers of Anvil Mining's Kinsevere copper project, and encompasses over fifty-four square kilometers highly, prospective for copper mineralization. With the assistance of Caracle Creek International Consulting, (CCIC), (a professional geological consulting company providing a wide range of geological and engineering services to the mineral exploration and mining industry) we will implement a comprehensive exploration program on this new acquisition in 2008.

In addition, our plans for 2008 will include an analysis of the geochemical data from the recently completed soil sample survey and 2600 line kilometre Heli-Mag geophysical survey completed on Research Permit(s) 5214, 5215, 5216 and 5217. CCIC will also be instrumental in assisting our team of experienced geologists in the DRC, in delineating drill targets for the upcoming minimum 25,000 meter drill campaign planned on our initial Research Permits. This drill program will commence in April 2008.

With $7.9 million in the treasury, El Nino is fully funded to carry out its 2008 exploration program in the DRC and will continue to release results from the previous drill program as they become available.

Jean Luc Roy, President & CEO of ELN also stated: El Nino Ventures land position in the DRC is not under review as we are not under a contract agreement but under the rules and regulations of the Mining Code of the DRC. The review process that is taking place is only reviewing mining contracts that were signed with the State-Owned mining company. Our research permits were granted under the new mining code and we have no contractual agreements with State Owned companies. We are very comfortable working in the DRC and will continue to work with the governmental authorities and operate in accordance with the legislation in place.

Ireland's Lower Carboniferous limestones host important, very good grade, zinc and lead mineralization including the three mines currently in operation. These mines contribute a substantial proportion of Western Europe's zinc and lead concentrate requirements.

El Nino has recently received a report from CSA Group Ltd, the Company's Irish geological consultants, recommending an initial 4400m diamond drill program targeting coincident stratigraphic/structural targets on several of the licences.

The Company is now in the process of finalizing drill collar locations and is negotiating a drill contract with the objective of commencing drilling on or before May.
