VANCOUVER, June 25 /CNW/ - El Nino Ventures Inc. ("El Nino") (TSX.V: ELN;

$5,000,000 exploration program will commence on June 25th, 2007 on the
Bathurst Mining Camp, in Bathurst, New Brunswick. A total of 25,000 meters of
drilling using up to five drill rigs will be operational from June 2007
through until March 2008. Jean Luc Roy, President of El Nino states, "We are
looking forward to the 2007/2008 campaign, and are very optimistic with the

Zinc's exploration projects in the Bathurst Mining Camp through an
Option/Joint Venture Agreement, which was signed in May 2006. We have already
completed the first year, of a two year $10,000,000 work program, with
$5,000,000 coming from the province of New Brunswick through a government
