OIL SANDS
Vital to the North American Energy Equation
(from a January 2004 "Overview of Canada's Oil Sands" report from the investment firm TD Securities)
    •  Canada's huge oil sands reserves represent a long-term, proximate and secure source of oil supply for the U.S.
    •  Huge, long life, resource base, with no exploration risk
    •  Oil sands producers enjoy strong, predictable growth profiles
    •  Oil sands' cash operating costs continue to decline
    •  Oil sands produces enjoy a significant total cost advantage vs. conventional producers
Technology -- Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD)
the key to unlocking most of Canada's Oil sands
    •  Drill pairs of horizontal wells and inject steam into the upper well
    •  Offers a significant increase in overall recovery
SAGD advantages over CSS (Cyclic Steam Stimulation)
    •  Recovers up to 70% of bitumen*
*Bitumen is a category of organic liquids which are highly viscous, black, sticky and wholly soluble in Carbon Disulfide. Asphalt and tar are the most common forms of bitumen.
    •  CSS typically recovers 25-30% of bitumen
    •  Operates at lower temperatures and pressures, allowing use of less specialized equipment
    •  The large majority of new in-situ projects will use SAGD
HIGH GROSS MARGINS
    •  After refining the petrochemical feedstocks in the Pasquia Hills Oil Shale project (see below) have an estimated  potential value of $84 per barrel
    •  With an estmated extraction and refining cost of $25, leaving a gross margin of $59 per barrel
    •  The components of the $84 estimated value, using the average price over the last seven years of each feedstock component, are
□ Styrene #2         $47.15
Used as a component for plastics, styrene-butadiene rubber and latex, unsaturated polyester resins, ABS resins.  Major producers of styrene include Sterling Chemicals, Chevron-Phillips, Dow Chemicals, Nova Chemicals, BP, Lyondell Chemicals, General Electric Corp.
□ Styrene #1         $13.96
□ Naptha               $14.78
Blended to make gasoline.  Also used to dissolve rubber and to thin paints and varnish. 
□ Benzene             $4.35
A component for plastics.  Worldwide major producers include Exxon-Mobile, Chevron-Phillips, BP, Equistar Chemicals, Koch Industries, Shell and Dow Chemicals
□ Toulene              $3.65
Raw material to produce benzoic acid, used as a preservative for foods, beverages and cosmetics..  Also used as a lacquer solvent and in the manufacture of dyes and perfumes.
□ Total                   $83.90
PROPERTY LOCATION & SIZE
Pasquia Hills Oil Shale Project
    •  Covers 1 million acres located in Central Saskatchewan, Canada
    •  Includes the 50,000-acre mine site containing a resource of 4.3 billion barrels of shale oil, which contain 59% aromatics, by weight.
Firebag East -- potential for several billions barrels of oil
    •  Project located within the Athabasca Tar Sands* (see below)
    •  Comprises 1,600,000 acres (2180 square miles)
    •  Is the largest land holding in the Athabasca Tar Sands
    •  Is adjacent to four World Class Oil Sand projects, including Suncor, which have reported reserves of 14 billion barrels oil with planned production of 500,000 barrels oil per day
    •  Geologic mapping as well as drill data confirm the same potential on the Firebag East Lands
* Athabasca Tar Sands
    •  The Athabasca Tar Sands is a large area of tar sands located mainly in north-eastern Alberta and, to a much lesser degree Saskatchewan.
    •  It is estimated that the Athabasca Tar Sands contain approximately one third of the world's total oil deposits
    •  With another third in the Venezuelan Orinoco tar sands deposit
    •  The remaining third of the world's oil is in the form of conventional oil, much of it in Saudi Arabia and other Middle-Eastern countries.
