Crown Point Provides Update on Cerro de Los Leones Drilling Operations
04 Décembre 2019 - 2:00PM
(TSX-V:CWV)
: Crown Point Energy Inc. (“Crown
Point” or the “Company”) today provided an operations update on its
drilling activities on the Cerro de Los Leones (“CLL”) exploration
permit.
As previously reported in our November 12, 2019
press release, two exploration wells had been scheduled to be
drilling during Q3/Q4 2019 on the Company’s operated CLL
exploration permit located in the Province of Mendoza (net working
interest 100%).
The first of these wells, SRM x-1001D, was
drilled to a total vertical depth of 1333 meters and cased as a
potential discovery on November 2, 2019 after well log analysis
indicated a potential 5 meter hydrocarbon bearing zone in the Agua
de la Piedra formation (middle Tertiary) between 1021-1026 meters
true vertical depth. The well was deviated at approximately 40
degrees north of its surface location to intersect the crest of a
structure which lies beneath the Rio Malargüe floodplain on the
northern CLL exploration permit.
The rig was subsequently moved 1 kilometer to
the west of the surface location of SRM x-1001D to drill and test
the Tertiary sandstones on an extension of the structure. Drilling
operations on the second well, SRM x-1002D, commenced on November
10 and the well reached a final vertical depth of 1183 meters on
November 18 2019. The well was then abandoned after well log
analysis confirmed the absence of hydrocarbons.
Testing and evaluation of SRM x-1001D commenced
on November 20 and are ongoing. Crown Point will release the
results after testing and evaluation operations are completed.
The drilling and evaluation of the two
exploration wells has satisfied the remaining phase two work
commitment on the CLL exploration permit. The Company had requested
and was granted a four month extension (to February 23, 2020) to
accommodate the drilling and evaluation of both wells.

forward-looking information concerning, among other things, the
following: our belief that SRM x-1001D is a potential discovery
because the well log analysis indicates a potential 5 meter
hydrocarbon bearing zone in the Agua de la Piedra formation (middle
Tertiary) between 1021-1026 meters true vertical depth; and the
Company's business strategies. The reader is cautioned that
such information, although considered reasonable by the Company,
may prove to be incorrect. Actual results achieved during the

factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those

document including, but not limited to, the following: the risk
that SRM x-1001D is ultimately not a productive well, or if
productive, is ultimately not an economic well; the risk that our
testing and evaluation plans for such well are changed, delayed or
do not occur at all; the risk that the Company changes is business
strategies; and the risks and other factors described under “Risk
Factors” in the Company’s most recently filed Annual Information
Form, which is available for viewing on SEDAR at

contained in this document, the Company has made assumptions

x-1001D; the general stability of the economic and political
environment in which the Company operates, including operating
