Upon closing the two previously announced purchase and sale agreements the Company will own mineral titles covering approximately 20,000 gross acres, 17,400 net acres in N.W. Montana. The fee acreage is located on the Blackfeet Reserve (95%) in Glacier County, and in Teton County (5%). To date operators have permitted 52 exploration wells to evaluate the resource potential in various tight-oil formations on the play. The Blackfeet Reserve covers an area of approximately 1.5 million acres and is host to a number of prospective reservoir targets. The Company's fee acreage portfolio is spread-out as to one-third located in the west, central and eastern portions of the Reserve.
In Q1, 2012 Husky Oil completed drilling two vertical pilot wells to evaluate the resource potential in the Canol shale formation in the Tulita area of the Central Mackenzie Valley, NWT. In April two seismic surveys were completed in the area; Husky recorded a 744-kilometer 3D seismic survey and Explor Geophysical shot a 480-kilometer 2D survey. The Company holds an interest in three Significant Discovery Licenses and three freehold parcels located south of the activity in the Tulita area.
The Company's financial statements, related management discussion and analysis for the period have been filed on Sedar, copies will be posted on the Company's website at www.internationalfrontier.com
