El Nino Ventures Inc. (An Exploration Stage Company) Notes to Financial Statements For ~~Immediate~~the ~~Release~~Period Ended April 30, 2006 and 2005 Canadian Funds

~~NEWS RELEASE~~1.

ElINCORPORATION ~~Nino Announces Option Agreement with Falconbridge~~

~~Bathurst~~El ~~Zinc~~Nino ~~Mining~~Ventures ~~Camp~~Inc. (the “Company") was incorporated on February 19, ~~Bathurst~~1988 in British Columbia, ~~New~~Canada. The ~~Brunswick~~Company is in the business of exploring mineral properties and is considered to be an exploration stage company.

~~May 26, 2006, Vancouver, BC – El Nino Ventures Inc~~2. (TSX.V: ELN; OTCBB: ELNOF; Frankfurt: E7Q) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an Option Agreement with Falconbridge Limited (TSX: FAL.LV and NYSE: FAL) to explore the Bathurst Mining Camp, New Brunswick. The Bathurst Camp is a world class mining district with full mining, milling and smelter infrastructure, containing numerous copper, zinc, lead and silver volcanogenic massive sulphide deposits of different sizes, ranging up to the Brunswick # 12 deposit which contained more than 300 million tonnes of massive sulphide. The Brunswick # 12 zinc, lead, copper, silver mine, owned by Falconbridge, currently operates at approximately 10,000 tonnes per day.

ElSIGNIFICANT ~~Nino~~ACCOUNTING Ventures will initially have the opportunity to earn a 50% interest in a large number of mineral claims and two permitted areas held by Falconbridge occupying approximately 108,800 hectares (approximately 268,736 acres). In order to vest with a 50% interest El Nino is required to spend $5.0 million on exploration by March 31, 2008 with a minimum expenditure of $2.5 million by March 31, 2007.POLICIES

~~Upon vesting with~~ a 50% interest in the Property El Nino Ventures will have 90 days in which to elect to carve out one or more Project Areas from the existing Property, in each of which El Nino can increase its interest to 65% by spending an additional $2.0 million over three years, and can increase its interest in each Project Area still further to 75%, by spending an additional $3.0 million over another two years. Falconbridge can back-in to increase its position from either a 35% or 25% interest level to 50%, by contributing 2.5 times El Nino’s expenditure made to increase its interest above 50%. Falconbridge may increase its interest in one or more Project Area from 50% to 70% at any time by electing to complete a Feasibility Study, or expend an additional $20 million on each Project Area within three years: or five years if underground work is necessary to complete the study. Falconbridge will have the right to process El Nino’s share of ore from any future operation.)

~~The~~Cash ~~optioned claims~~ and ~~permits~~Cash overlie a highly prospective sequence of volcanic and sedimentary rocks which extend for kilometres and have largely only been explored to shallow depths. Falconbridge as Project Operator, will employ leading edge deeply penetrating geophysical techniques, including Titan 24 surveys to define drill targets. These systems enable highly reliable testing to much greater depths than earlier surveys. Approximately 24,000m (over 78,000 feet) of diamond drilling comprising about 34 diamond drill holes, employing three drill rigs, is anticipated to be completed during the first year program. Practically all of the funds contributed by El Nino to the initial program will be devoted to diamond drilling. The program is scheduled to commence immediately.Equivalents

AFor ~~Management~~purposes ~~Committee~~of reporting cash flows, ~~comprising~~the ~~two~~Company ~~representatives~~considers ~~each~~cash ~~from~~and Elcash ~~Nino~~equivalents ~~Ventures~~to include amounts held in banks and ~~Falconbridge~~highly ~~will~~liquid ~~make~~debt ~~all~~investments ~~strategic~~with ~~and~~remaining ~~planning~~maturities ~~decisions~~at ~~relating~~point toof ~~exploration~~purchase of ~~the~~three ~~Property~~months or less. ~~One~~The ofCompany Elplaces ~~Nino’s~~its ~~exploration~~cash ~~personnel~~and ~~will~~cash ~~work~~investments with ~~Falconbridge’s~~institutions ~~Bathurst~~of ~~exploration~~high ~~team~~credit ~~during~~worthiness. At ~~the~~times, ~~first~~such ~~two~~investments ~~years~~may be in excess of ~~the~~federal ~~Agreement~~insurance limits.

Jean Luc Roy, El Nino’s President, commented “The Bathurst Option and Joint Venture Agreement will allow El Nino to participate in the exploration of a world class mining camp, using the expertise of the Falconbridge technical team. We look forward to an aggressive and exciting 2006/2007 exploration program as El Nino begins the Bathurst zinc/base metal project, and continues to acquire new projects, in our targeted areas of Canada, Alaska, and Eastern/Central Europe”.b)

~~Normand Dupras, Director of~~ Exploration, Bathurst, for Falconbridge Limited stated “We are very pleased to be commencing this new program with El Nino Ventures. Our focus remains committed to finding a new mineral deposit in the vicinity of the existing Bathurst mine site, utilizing our vast database and advanced technology”.Expenditures

~~About~~The ElCompany ~~Nino~~is ~~Ventures~~in ~~Inc~~the exploration stage and expenses all exploration expenditures as they are incurred until it is determined that a property has economically recoverable ore reserves. At that point, further exploration expenditures will be capitalized.

El Nino is an exploration stage company currently developing an aggressive global acquisition strategy. Our business model is to revisit former mining regions, apply new technologies to advanced stage exploration targets, and aggressively acquire new projects. Our present focus is on Canada, Alaska, and Eastern / Central Europe. In Canada, El Nino has an Option / Joint Venture with Falconbridge Ltd. to explore the world class Bathurst Zinc / Base Metals Mining Camp in New Brunswick. The Company is also exploring for uranium in the Bancroft uranium camp in Ontario. El Nino is currently negotiating on new projects in Alaska, and Eastern/Central Europe. c)

Management Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported years. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Asset Retirement Obligations – Change in Accounting Policy

Effective February 1, 2004, the Company adopted the recommendations of CICA Handbook Section 3110, Asset Retirement Obligations. This new section requires recognition of a legal liability for obligations relating to retirement of property, plant, and equipment, and arising from the acquisition, construction, development, or normal operation of those assets. Such asset retirement cost must be recognized at fair value, when a reasonable estimate of fair value can be estimated, in the period in which it is incurred, added to the carrying value of the asset, and amortized into income on a systematic basis over its useful life.

There is no material impact on the financial statements resulting from the adoption of Section 3110 either in the current or prior years presented.

Flow-Through Shares

During the prior year, the Company adopted the new recommendations of the Emerging Issues Committee relating to flow-through shares effective for all flow-through agreements dated after March 19, 2004. Canadian Income Tax Legislation permits an enterprise to issue securities referred to as flow-through shares, whereby the investor can claim the tax deductions arising from the renunciation of the related resource expenditures. When resource expenditures are renounced to the investors and the Company has reasonable assurance that the expenditures will be completed, future income tax liabilities are recognized (renounced expenditures multiplied by the effective tax rate) thereby reducing share capital.

If a company has sufficient unused tax losses and deductions (“losses”) to offset all or part of the future income tax liabilities and no future income tax assets have been previously recognized on such losses, a portion of such unrecognized losses (losses multiplied by the effective corporate tax rate) is recorded as income up to the amount of the future income tax liability that was previously recognized on the renounced expenditures.

Share Capital

The proceeds from the exercise of stock options and warrants are recorded as share capital in the amount for which the options or warrants were exercised.

ii)

Share capital issued for non-monetary consideration is recorded at an amount based on fair market value.

Income Taxes

The asset and liability method is used for determining future income taxes. Under the asset and liability method, the change in the net future income tax asset or liability is included in income. The income tax effects of differences in the periods when revenue and expenses are recognized, in accordance with Company accounting practices, and the periods they are recognized for income tax purposes are reflected as future income tax assets or liabilities. Future income tax assets and liabilities are measured using the statutory income tax rates which are expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

Variable Interest Entities

The Accounting Standards Board (AcSB) issued Accounting Guideline AcG 15 “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities,” to harmonize the Guideline with the equivalent FASB Interpretation No. 46R, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“VIE”). The Guideline provides criteria for identifying VIEs and further criteria for determining what entity, if any, should consolidate them. The Guideline is effective for annual and interim periods beginning on or after November 1, 2005, and upon adoption, will not materially impact the Company’s results of operations and financial position.

Mineral Exploration

The Company recognizes METC amounts and applies those amounts against exploration costs when the Company’s application for tax credits is approved by Canada Revenue Agency. Assessments, if any for taxes, penalties and interest under Part XII.6 under section 2.11.91 of the Income Tax Act are deducted from the tax credits when assessed.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, GST receivable, and accounts payable. Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from the financial instruments. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying value due to their short-term maturity or capacity of prompt liquidation.

SHARE CAPITAL

Authorized:

Unlimited common voting shares without par value (no additional paid-in capital).

At April 30 the following stock options were outstanding:

Expiry Date		Exercise Price	2006 Shares	2005 Shares

The Company has granted founders, directors and certain employees stock options. Stock option activity is summarized as follows:

Weighted average exercise price

During the period, 1,588,642 stock options were granted to employees, consultants and insiders at an exercise price of $0.50 per common share for a period of five years. These are subject to shareholder approval.

During the previous year ended January 31, 2004, the Company granted options to purchase up to 354,000 shares. This resulted in stock compensation expense of $38,516, which has been recorded in consulting fees. The offsetting entry is to contributed surplus.

The fair value of stock options used to calculated stock compensation expense for both employees and non-employees is estimated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following weighted average assumptions:

		January 31, 2004
Average risk-free interest rate		3.82%
Expected dividend yield		NIL
Expected stock price volatility		106%
Average expected option life		5 years

Option pricing models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, and therefore, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of the Company’s stock options.

At April 30, 2006, the following warrants were outstanding:

Expiry Date	Number of Shares	Exercise Price
August 12, 2006	83,333	$0.35
April 24, 2007	600,000	$0.50
February 28, 2008	1,600,000	$0.33
Balance outstanding – April 30, 2006	2,283,333

During the period, the Company closed a 1,600,000 unit private placement at a price of $0.25 per unit for gross proceeds of $400,000 consisting of one common share in the capital of the Company and one non-transferable share purchase warrant. Each full warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one additional common share of the Company until February 28, 2008 at a price of $0.33 per warrant share. A finder’s fee of 80,000 shares were issued in connection with this financing.

During the period, the Company closed a 600,000 unit private placement at a price of $0.40 per unit consisting of one common share in the capital of the Company and one non-transferable share purchase warrant. Each warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one additional common share of the Company for a period of one year from the closing date at a price of $0.50 per warrant share.

During the period, 30,000 shares were issued for mineral properties.

During the previous year, the Company closed a 166,667 flow-through unit private placement at a price of $0.30 per unit, for gross proceeds of $50,000. Each unit consists of one common share in the capital of the Company and one-half of one common non-transferable, non-flow-through share purchase warrant. Each full warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one additional common share of the Company until August 12, 2006 at a price of $0.35 per warrant share. An officer and director subscribed for 33,500 units in this private placement.

Flow-through shares are shares issued by a company that incurs certain resource expenditures and then renounces them for Canadian tax purposes. This allows the expenditures to flow through to the subscriber for tax purposes. The subscribers may in turn claim the expenditure as a deduction on their personal or corporate tax returns.

The total amount of funds raised through the flow-through shares must be spent on qualified mineral exploration. The use of proceeds from flow-through shares is restricted to certain Canadian Exploration Expenditures under Canadian Income Tax Legislation. Restricted Cash - Flow-Through represents funds received from flow-through issuances that management estimates have not been spent as at the balance sheet date.

During the previous year, shareholders approved the reservation of 298,077 performance shares at an exercise price of $0.01 per share. To date, none of these shares have been allotted, issued and have not been booked into these financial statements as they must receive regulatory approval. Subsequent to year-end, a further 509,410 nominal value performance shares were reserved subject to shareholder and regulatory approval. At the discretion of the Board, these shares may be issued to such arm’s length parties as the Board considers desirable to attract to the Company.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Except as noted elsewhere in these financial statements, related party transactions are as follows:

During the period, the Company paid $6,000 for management fees to a company controlled by the President and director.

During the period, the Company paid $9,553 for consulting fees to a company controlled by the Corporate Secretary.

During the period, the Company paid $8,100 for professional fees to a company controlled by the Chief Financial Officer.

During the period, the Company paid rent of $3,967 to a company controlled by the President and director.

The above transactions, occurring in the normal course of operations, are measured at the exchange amount, which is the amount of consideration established and agreed to by the related parties.

INCOME TAX LOSSES

The Company has incurred certain resource related expenditures of approximately $847,000, which may be carried forward indefinitely and used to reduce prescribed taxable income in future years.

The Company has incurred non-capital losses for income tax purposes of approximately $580,000. They may be carried forward and used to reduce taxable income of future years. These losses will expire as follows:

2007	$	95,000
2008		86,000
2009		67,000
2010		81,000
2011		86,000
2015		86,000
2016		79,000
	$	580,000

Significant components of the Company's future tax assets and liabilities, after applying enacted corporate income tax rates, are as follows:

Future Tax Assets		2006
Statutory tax rate		34.1%
Non-capital losses	$	197,780
Undepreciated capital cost in excess of accounting net book value		635
Exploration and development expenditures		288,827
		487,242
Less: Valuation allowances		(487,242)
Reversal of valuation allowance		17,050
Income tax recovery	$	17,050

The potential future tax benefits of these expenditures and tax losses have not been recognized in these financial statements.

Future Income Tax Recovery

During the previous year, flow-through shares totalling $50,000 were issued, which funds are required to be spent on certain Canadian Exploration Expenditures. Because the Company on longer has the ability to use the expenditures for tax purposes, the Company is required to record a future tax liability which is equal to the renunciation, times the corporation tax rate when expenditures are renounced. However, because the Company has unused tax losses and resource pools in excess of the renunciation, the future tax liability becomes a future income tax recovery.

COMMITMENTS

By agreement dated July 1, 2005, the Company entered into a five year lease for premises with a company controlled by the President and director. Minimum basic rent commitments are approximately as follows:

2007	$	10,000
2008		10,000
2009		10,000
2010		10,000
2011		4,000
	$	44,000

In addition to basic rent, the Company is also responsible for its proportionate share of property taxes and operating costs.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent to the period-end, the Company announced that it had entered into an option agreement with Falconbridge Limited (“Falconbridge”) to explore the Bathhurst Mining Camp in New Brunswick.

The Company will initially have the opportunity to earn a 50% interest in a large number of mineral claims and two permitted areas held by Falconbridge occupying approximately 108,800 hectares. In order to vest with a 50% interest, the Company is required to spend $5.0 million on exploration by March 31, 2008 with a minimum expenditure of $2.5 million by March 31, 2007.

Upon vesting with a 50% interest in the Property, the Company will have 90 days in which to elect to carve out one or more Project Areas from the existing Property, in each of which the Company can increase its interest to 65% by spending an additional $2.0 million over three years and can increase its interest in each Project Area still further to 75% by spending an additional $3.0 million over another two years. Falconbridge can back-in to increase its position from either a 35% or 25% interest level to 50% by contributing 2.5 times the Company expenditures made to increase its interest above 50%. Falconbridge may increase its interest in one or more Project Areas from 50% to 70% at any time by electing to complete a Feasibility Study, or expend an additional $20 million on each Project Area within three years: or five years if underground work is necessary to complete the study. Falconbridge will have the right to process the Company’s share of ore from any future operations.

Subsequent to the period-end, the Company announced a non-brokered private placement of up to 8,750,000 units at a price of $0.80 per unit for gross proceeds of up to $7,000,000. Each unit will consist of one common share in the capital of the Company and one-half of one non-transferable share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one additional common share of the Company for a period of one year from the closing date at a price of $1.00 per share.

The Company has yet to determine whether a portion of the units to be issued will have flow-through privileges attached to them. A finder’s fee of up to 7% may be paid in cash and/or warrants.

Jean-Luc has a strong track record in acquisition, exploration and development of mineral projects through to production. His combined experience will be invaluable as El Nino Ventures moves in a very aggressive acquisition phase to acquire a diversified mineral portfolio”.Project

The ~~foregoing~~Company ~~appointment~~completed the second phase of exploration on the Bancroft Uranium Project in early October. The Project is comprised of eight properties in the Bancroft region of Ontario, which is well known for its historical uranium production from four former producing mines. Under two separate agreements, El Nino may beearn ~~subject~~up to ~~regulatory~~100% ~~approval~~interest on the Project.

~~Item~~Preliminary 6:Exploration ~~Reliance~~Program on– ~~section~~May ~~85 (2) of the Act~~2005

~~Not~~A ~~Applicable~~preliminary exploration program of geological and scintillometer reconnaissance was conducted in May 2005 on all eight of the Bancroft properties. In addition, the Halo Property (North West Zone) and Amalgamated Rare Earth Property, which host the properties’ largest known uranium reserves (not 43-101 compliant), were targeted for more detailed exploration. This program included mechanical stripping, scintillometer surveying, and chip and grab rock sampling for uranium and thorium assaying, and was successful in confirming the historically established grades. Based on the results of this program, El Nino’s consulting geologist, T.J. Beesley, P.Eng., recommended a follow up deep drilling program to verify down dip extension of uranium mineralization for these properties. Details for this program are in development.

~~Item~~Second 7:Phase ~~Omitted~~Exploration ~~Information~~– October 2005

~~Not~~The ~~Applicable~~second exploration phase was completed in late 2005, during which the remaining six properties were each examined radiometrically. Grids were established over the extent of the anomalous radioactivity, with 50 metre lines and 12.5 metre stations, and were then surveyed by scintillometer. Previous workings and high radioactive anomalies were tied in and chip and grab samples taken for assaying for uranium and thorium content. Based on the results, the Company plans further work on three of the properties. A 3.02% U3O8 result (apparently one of the highest U3O8 results recorded in this camp) was returned from an outcrop of limonitic coarse phlogopite-pyroxene pegmatite on the Canadian All Metals Property in Monmouth Township. Results of 0.22% U3O8 were also returned. On the Silver Crater #2 Showing in Faraday Township, anomalous radioactivity extends over an area 300 x 150 metres. Highly anomalous radioactivity occurs within a 75 x 30 metre zone in the centre of the grid and is open to the west under overburden. Results from five samples from throughout this zone range from 0.37% to 0.69% U3O8 and average 0.53% U3O8, in coarse-grained dark pink to red augite syenite pegmatite. An assay of 0.31% U308 was obtained from coarse biotite-green pyroxene skarn on the McLean-Hogan Property grid in Cardiff Township.

~~Item~~Third 8:Phase ~~Senior~~Exploration ~~Officers~~– Fall 2006

Results of operations

The three month period ended April 30, 2006 resulted in a net loss of $145,756, which compares with a loss of $52,923 for the same period in 2005. General and administrative expenses for the period ended April 30, 2006 were $122,840 an increase of $98,160 over the same period in 2005. Consulting expenses of $71,575 were incurred as compared to $6,810 a year before as the Company required the services of several consultants to further evaluate new mineral projects. The Company adopted the new recommendations of CICA Handbook Section 3870, “Stock-Based Compensation and Other Stock-Based Payments”, effective to all awards granted on or after January 1, 2003. The new standard requires that all stock-based awards be measured and recognized using a fair value based method. During the period, 1,588,642 stock options were granted but no stock option expense has been recognized as shareholder approval is required and the options are issued subject to a vesting schedule. All other general and administrative costs were relatively the same when compared to the previous period.

During the period ended April 30, 2006, the Company incurred mineral property expenditures of $22,916. Of this amount, $10,000 was paid as cash option payments on its Bancroft, Ontario properties. A further 30,000 shares were issued at a value of $12,000 for the Bancroft properties.

Travel, shareholder relations and promotional activities undertaken by the Company, which included attendance at various trade shows, cost $ 20,178 as compared to $221 in the previous year.

Liquidity and capital resources

Critical accounting estimates

A detailed summary of all the Company’s significant accounting policies is included in Note 2 to the financial statements for the period ended April 30, 2006.

Significant estimates used in the preparation of these financial statements include, amongst other things, depreciation, determination of net recoverable value of assets, determination of fair value on taxes, contingencies and share compensation.

Changes in Accounting Policies

Variable interest entities

Financial Instruments and Other Instruments

El Nino’s financial instruments consist of cash, restricted cash, GST receivable and accounts payable. Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that El Nino is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from the financial instruments. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying value due to their short-term maturity or capacity of prompt liquidation.

The Company may be exposed to currency risk if acquisition and exploration expenditures are incurred in the U.S. as it will have to convert Canadian dollars raised through equity financing in Canada to US dollars. The Company’s expenditures could be negatively impacted by increases in the US versus the Canadian dollar.

Outstanding share data

The Company is authorized to issue unlimited common shares without par value. As at April 30, 2006, there were 10,188,213 outstanding common shares compared to 7,878,213 outstanding shares at January 31, 2006. The increase reflects the issuance of 2,200,000 shares for cash, 80,000 for a finders fee and 30,000 shares for mineral properties.

Directors, officers, employees and contractors are granted options to purchase common shares under the Company Stock Option Plan. This plan and its terms and outstanding balance are disclosed in Notes 6c to the financial statements dated April 30, 2006.

Related party transactions

A total of $6,000 was paid to a company controlled by Harry Barr, a Director and President of the Company, for management services during the period ended April 30, 2006. Pursuant to an office lease agreement dated July 1, 2005, a total of $3,967 was paid to a company controlled by Harry Barr for office rent during the period ended April 30, 2006. A total of $9,553 was paid to a company controlled by Taryn Downing, an Officer of the Company, for Corporate secretarial services during the period ended April 30, 2006. A total of $8,100 was paid to a company controlled by Gord Steblin, an Officer of the Company for accounting services during the period ended April 30, 2006.

Risks and Uncertainties

The mineral industry is intensely competitive in all its phases. The company competes with many other companies who have greater financial resources and experience. The market price of precious metals and other minerals is volatile and cannot be controlled. Exploration for minerals is a speculative venture. There is no certainty that the money spent on exploration and development will result in the discovery of an economic ore body.

The Company has limited financial resources, no sources of operating cash flows and no assurances that sufficient funding, including adequate financing, will be available to conduct further exploration and development of its projects or to fulfill its obligations under the terms of any option or joint venture agreements. If the Company’s generative exploration programs are successful, additional funds will be required for development of one or more projects. Failure to obtain additional financing could result in the delay or indefinite postponement of further exploration and development or the possible loss of the company’s properties.

Outlook

El Nino has optioned eight mineral properties under the terms of two separate agreements in Ontario prospective for Uranium and subsequent to the first quarter ended April 30, 2006, entered into an option agreement with Falconbridge to explore the Bathhurst Mining Camp in New Brunswick. The Company announced a non-brokered private placement for gross proceeds of up to $7,000,000 to meet the expenditure requirements of the Falconbridge agreement. The Company will be proceeding with an aggressive acquisition program for new projects focusing on areas of known mineralization in Eastern Europe, Alaska, and Canada. El Nino has cash of $703,739 and working capital of $739,619 as at April 30, 2006.

The Board of Directors of El Nino has approved the disclosure contained in this interim MD&A. A copy of this interim MD&A will be provided to anyone who requests it.

A Press release dated and issued May 26, 2006 in Vancouver, BC to the TSX Venture Exchange and through various other approved public media.

Item 4: Summary of Material Change

El Nino Ventures Inc. announces Option Agreement with Falconbridge, Bathurst Zinc Mining Camp, Bathurst, New Brunswick.

Item 5: Full Description of Material Change

May 26, 2006, Vancouver, BC – El Nino Ventures Inc. (TSX.V: ELN; OTCBB: ELNOF; Frankfurt: E7Q) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an Option Agreement with Falconbridge Limited (TSX: FAL.LV and NYSE: FAL) to explore the Bathurst Mining Camp, New Brunswick. The Bathurst Camp is a world class mining district with full mining, milling and smelter infrastructure, containing numerous copper, zinc, lead and silver volcanogenic massive sulphide deposits of different sizes, ranging up to the Brunswick # 12 deposit which contained more than 300 million tonnes of massive sulphide. The Brunswick # 12 zinc, lead, copper, silver mine, owned by Falconbridge, currently operates at approximately 10,000 tonnes per day.

El Nino Ventures will initially have the opportunity to earn a 50% interest in a large number of mineral claims and two permitted areas held by Falconbridge occupying approximately 108,800 hectares (approximately 268,736 acres). In order to vest with a 50% interest El Nino is required to spend $5.0 million on exploration by March 31, 2008 with a minimum expenditure of $2.5 million by March 31, 2007.

Upon vesting with a 50% interest in the Property El Nino Ventures will have 90 days in which to elect to carve out one or more Project Areas from the existing Property, in each of which El Nino can increase its interest to 65% by spending an additional $2.0 million over three years, and can increase its interest in each Project Area still further to 75%, by spending an additional $3.0 million over another two years. Falconbridge can back-in to increase its position from either a 35% or 25% interest level to 50%, by contributing 2.5 times El Nino’s expenditure made to increase its interest above 50%. Falconbridge may increase its interest in one or more Project Area from 50% to 70% at any time by electing to complete a Feasibility Study, or expend an additional $20 million on each Project Area within three years: or five years if underground work is necessary to complete the study. Falconbridge will have the right to process El Nino’s share of ore from any future operation.

The optioned claims and permits overlie a highly prospective sequence of volcanic and sedimentary rocks which extend for kilometres and have largely only been explored to shallow depths. Falconbridge as Project Operator, will employ leading edge deeply penetrating geophysical techniques, including Titan 24 surveys to define drill targets. These systems enable highly reliable testing to much greater depths than earlier surveys. Approximately 24,000m (over 78,000 feet) of diamond drilling comprising about 34 diamond drill holes, employing three drill rigs, is anticipated to be completed during the first year program. Practically all of the funds contributed by El Nino to the initial program will be devoted to diamond drilling. The program is scheduled to commence immediately.

A Management Committee, comprising two representatives each from El Nino Ventures and Falconbridge will make all strategic and planning decisions relating to exploration of the Property. One of El Nino’s exploration personnel will work with Falconbridge’s Bathurst exploration team during the first two years of the Agreement.

Normand Dupras, Director of Exploration, Bathurst, for Falconbridge Limited stated “We are very pleased to be commencing this new program with El Nino Ventures. Our focus remains committed to finding a new mineral deposit in the vicinity of the existing Bathurst mine site, utilizing our vast database and advanced technology”.
