KELOWNA, BC, May 9, 2012 /CNW/ - Georox Resources Inc. ("Georox" or the
"Corporation") (GXR:TSX-V; OF6A:FRA) is pleased to announce that it has
signed a participation agreement with respect to a farm-in agreement on
lands in the Coteau Lake area in southeastern Saskatchewan and
northeast Montana.
The participation in the farm-in includes three and one-quarter sections
of land (2080 gross acres) with the potential of high productivity
light/medium (30 degree API) Mississippian oil. Georox will pay 100% of
the farmee's 85% of the costs to drill, complete and test an "earning"
horizontal exploration well to earn a 31.875% working interest before
payout and 21.25% working interest after payout in the test well
quarter section and one additional quarter section. Subsequent to
Georox earning its initial interest in the farm-in lands, Georox may
participate in option wells to earn a 31.875% before payout and 21.25%
after payout in additional 320 acre blocks for each well drilled by
paying 42.5% of the costs to drill, complete and equip such additional
wells.
The contract depth of the initial earning well is approximately 1,975m
and the estimated cost net to Georox to drill, complete and test is
approximately $1.565 MM. This earning well is to be drilled immediately after spring break up in
mid-May 2012. Three (3) additional earning well locations have been
identified and are expected to be drilled subsequent to the drilling
and testing of the first well.
This farm-in is considered by management to be a major strategic move in
the growth of the Corporation and provides Georox with the opportunity
to drill and participate, in a high-potential, light/medium oil
potential exploration opportunity.
