RKOS Arkose Energy Corporation (CE)

Cantex Energy Corp., (Pink Sheets-CTXE) announced today that drilling has reached 4,200' with total depth of 5,000 feet to be reached on or about March 4. Trace Maurin, President of Cantex Energy, commented, "We are very pleased to report that the drilling progress is on schedule and that we expect to pass through the Dakota Channel Sands, the first of our two targets, at approximately 4, 800 feet by March 3, and then we will proceed down through a Fusion Shale where the Lakota Sands are expected to be encountered around 4,920 feet." Mr. Maurin goes on to say "We are anxious to witness the results of our decision to use the same unique KCI mud engineering program that has proved effective in the area over the last year. This is a more costly technique as the drilling mud contains a polymer additive designed to prevent shale sluffing and maintain circulation which will be key to maximizing production efficiency." Cantex Energy Corp. is an independent, managed risk, oil and gas exploration, development, and production company headquartered in San Antonio, Texas. The Company's current focus is the optimal exploitation and development of approximately 1,200 acres known as the West Ant Hills Prospect located in Niobrara County Wyoming.
