Strata-X Completes Purchase of Additional Working Interest for the Maverick Oil Project Located in the Eagle Ford Shale

The directors and management of Strata-X Energy Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:SXE)
("Strata-X" or the "Company") are pleased announce that the transaction to
purchase an additional 17.50% working interest in the Maverick Oil Project has
been completed. 


Further to the Company's news release dated September 28, 2012, Strata-X
purchased an additional 17.50% working interest in certain land rights in the
Maverick Oil Project ("Project") for consideration totaling $532,000 USD. The
Project is a new high potential oil development project and consists of a 75%
working interest in approximately 21,000 gross and 11,800 net acres to the
company in Maverick County, Texas. The Project is located within the Maverick
Basin of Texas which, in turn, falls within the published boundaries of the
Eagle Ford shale play. Strata-X is the operator of the properties.


Strata-X anticipates that the Maverick Project lies within the 'light oil' (high
API gravity) window of the Eagle Ford play. Strata-X's acreage acquisition lies
26 miles west of a successful well drilled within the heavier oil window by
Sanchez Energy, who in August announced that the Mark & Sandra #2H in Zavala
County, Texas had a 24-hour initial production rate 931 boepd (96% oil) from a
5,476 foot, 19-multi stage stimulated horizontal well. Within Strata-X's Project
area, the El Indio-1H well drilled by Jadela Oil (US) Operating, LLC in 2011 was
a 2,800 foot, 6-stage gas-fracture stimulated horizontal well. Despite a less
than optimum stimulation and testing program, the well flowed 175 bopd with 1.8
mmcfd of gas over a 12 day test period. 


Strata-X is a Golden, Colorado based company and is engaged in the business of
oil and gas exploration and development with a variety of exploration
opportunities in North Dakota, California, Colorado and Western Australia and
production and development opportunities in California and Texas. Strata-X has
48,474,005 common shares outstanding and trades under the symbol SXE on the
TSX.V
