Austin strikes oil in Colorado

//
The well has been named the Magellan #1 Well, which has been officially recorded with the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission.

Mr. Tim Hart, Austin’s COO, who is the drilling operator and is directly managing all well-site operations, commented: “We have been methodically de-risking our exploration which led us to the location to drill this well. To see this much oil at this early stage is a great sign and indicates that a significant hydrocarbon system is present and certainly gives us a great deal to be optimistic about.”

The company looks forward to further updating shareholders on its drilling and well testing activities at Pathfinder in the near future.
