Softrock has had a busy three weeks

CALGARY, Oct. 20, 2013 /CNW/ - Nick Taylor, CEO announces that Alberta's Department of Energy has extended by one year to June 11, 2015 their one section (640 ac) P&NG lease to the base of the Charlie Lake Formation held 50-50 by Softrock and its partner Greencastle Resources.

The company has also received letters of intent indicating a willingness to drill a well on the 640 ac lease but a number of details, where the devil may be hiding, remain to be ironed out.

Taylor says that interest was heightened in their lease as at the last Alberta Government sale a 640 ac parcel of similar P&NG rights directly off-setting the company's lease to the north sold for over $900,000, while another parcel of one-half section at the same sale directly adjoining to the southeast went for in excess of $200,000.
