18 Sept 2006drilling progress report▲ GoodMajor
Empire spudded its Cobble Cuesta test well in Nye County, Nevada (Gabbs Valley area), targeting 6,500 feet on a structure supported by gravity, seismic and surface mapping data, with encouraging oil shows already seen at a nearby test well. The company holds working interests (10%-40%, earning up to 30% more by paying 45% of this well's cost) across 75,521 lease acres, and just completed a $1.45 million private placement to fund it -- Empire's pivot from its original Wyoming asset toward Nevada exploration.
