DALLAS, April 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Southwest Resources, Inc. (Pink Sheets: SWRS) (the "Company"), a natural resources exploration, production, and mining company, today provides a corporate profile for investors (Note: please also see the Company's Initial Information and Disclosure Statement on the Pink Sheets website).

Southwest Resources is an exploration, acquisition, and production company that will focus on petroleum, precious metals, and helium reserves.

Natural Gas and Oil

Southwest Resources plans to pursue additional opportunities for exploration and production of petroleum reserves, primarily natural gas, throughout the southwestern United States, initially in parts of Oklahoma and petroleum-producing areas of Texas.

The Company will utilize the latest in production stimulation technology to enhance the production of new and existing wells, and will focus on locating, acquiring, and producing undervalued petroleum properties such as abandoned properties and stranded producing assets.  The Company currently owns oil and gas lease positions in northeastern Oklahoma where it will begin to apply this new production technology over the next several weeks.

Additionally, Southwest Resources believes that due to rising imported foreign oil prices and increased public awareness of environmental issues, new demand for compressed natural gas (CNG) as a transportation fuel will increase over the near term.  The Company's management foresees that this, combined with recent CNG transport and infrastructure improvements, will create a niche market for production from what were previously marginal wells.  Southwest Resources is in the process of evaluating the prospects of CNG delivery with alternative fuel retailer, Evolution Fuels (Pink Sheets: EVFN).

Precious Metals

Southwest Resources will pursue the acquisition of surface mining claims throughout Arizona and southeastern Utah through the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Duke Mining, LLC.

As a result of increased metals prices and the recent development of technologies for enhanced metals recovery, certain mineral deposits are now economically viable to be reclaimed.  The Company intends to apply cutting edge technology to recover the precious metals from the soil.

Duke Mining owns 1,280 acres of mining claims in southeastern Utah, which the Company believes hold significant reserves of minute particles of precious metals, including gold and platinum (per initial minerals assays), and is in the process of evaluating additional metals deposits.

Duke Mining is led by its president, Mr. Ben Campbell.  Mr. Campbell has over thirty years of experience in discovering and producing natural resources.  His career has included geologic evaluation, drilling for oil & gas, production and delivery of mineral products, product marketing, engineering evaluations and equipment manufacturing.  He has served in many management positions within the petroleum industry, including CEO and Chairman of two public oil and gas companies.  Mr. Campbell holds a degree from Texas A&M University.
