Arianne Resources Gives Effect to its Strategy of Focusing its Efforts on the Lac à Paul Project; Sells Off Two of its Properties

SAGUENAY, QUEBEC -- (Marketwired) -- 05/22/13 -- Arianne Resources Inc. ("Arianne" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE: DAN)(FRANKFURT: JE9N)(OTCBB: DRRSF) would like to announce the sale of its Brouillan Ouest and Heva properties to Exploration NQ Inc. (TSX VENTURE: NQE) and Midland Exploration Inc. (TSX VENTURE: MD) respectively. Both of these decisions give effect to Arianne's strategy of focusing its efforts on developing its open-pit phosphate mine project at Lac a Paul and selling off its non-phosphate assets.

Brouillan Ouest: Following the issuing of 1,000,000 shares to Arianne, at a deemed price of 5 cents per share, Exploration NQ Inc. acquires 100% of the cell claims that make up the Brouillan Ouest property. This acquisition ends the option agreement that Exploration NQ Inc. held on said claims. However, Arianne retains 2% royalties on the foundry's net revenue (NSR), half of which (1% NSR) is redeemable at any time, in consideration of the $1,000,000 cash payment.

Heva: Midland Exploration Inc. acquires, in consideration of a $30,000 cash payment and the issuing of 60,000 common shares of its share capital to Arianne, 100% of the rights on two separate blocks made up of 4 and 25 cell claims respectively. Midland Exploration Inc. agrees to assume obligations resulting from 2% royalties on the foundry's net revenue (NSR) which is payable to the initial prospectors of said Heva property

Arianne Resources (www.arianne-inc.com) owns and is developing the Lac a Paul phosphate-titanium deposit that will produce a superior grade apatite concentrate grading 39% P2O5. The Company currently has 77 million shares issued.
