• If I may interject a request for a bit of caution here. The company has only two full-time employees and they're not paid. This is a tiny outfit; look at their financial statements (revenue in the last quarterly report was just a little over $2,000 and their operating expenses just a couple hundred). I haven't researched this fully but there is some risk this entity is not as notable as their website and new article claims. They've issued a hundred million shares or so at about a buck a share. I'd be uncomfortable putting this on Wikipedia's front page, at least until they get some coverage in major media. Sorry for the cold water bath -- I saw this article last night on recent changes, and did a little digging because I'm always curious about microcap energy stocks. (By the way, they can't be a big oil supplier; look at the revenues on the financial statements.) I'd also be a little skeptical of their "proven" claims unless you can find a geological journal/publication independent of the company that describes the region.

• See here for some publications, and the company has around US$ 1.8M in assets. Meets WP:NOTABLE. --Tomtomn00 (talk • contributions) 18:38, 21 April 2012 (UTC)
