VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Feb. 4, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Entourage Mining Ltd. (OTCBB:ETGMF) (the "Company" or "Entourage") has received from Abbastar Uranium, the results of the Companies' Fall 2007 diamond drilling program at the Doran Main Showing ("Doran Showing"), situated along the North Shore of the Gulf of St. Lawrence in Costebelle Township, Quebec.
The program was comprised of 1,691 meters of drilling in 15 drill holes and was designed to test the area between the North End Zone and the Hot Spot Zone, the lateral extent of the Hot Spot Zone and to determine the South extension and thickness of the Hill Top pegmatite, all part of the Doran Showing.
The companies revisited the Doran Showing because of its easy access from Provincial Highway 138 at the southern portion of the Doran Property, where a 2006 diamond drilling program comprised of 1,196 meters in 16 drill holes, confirmed the existence of uranium mineralization at the Doran Main Showing (Main Zone, North End Zone, Dyke Zone and Hot Spot Zone).
Five new uraniferous pegmatite zones have been discovered during the recent drill program. The combined 31 drill holes cover an area of approximately 275 meters long and 200 meters wide.
Sample results from the fall 2007 campaign include:

To date, 63 drill holes have been completed on five of 22 anomalies identified on the Doran Property. Drill holes of this campaign indicate that mineralization north of the north extension (Holes 56, 57 & 58) is open in all directions. Further drill targets are now being evaluated and it is anticipated that the companies will return to the northern anomalies in the next drill campaign.
Complete drill results from the fall 2007 program are being assembled and will be posted on the Company website (www.entouragemining.com) Abbastar Uranium has the right to earn up to 70% interest in the Doran Project by expending 5 million dollars over 4 years.
