Update:
Lexington acquires Arkoma Basin gas prospect

(4/28/2004 - OGI: Houston) Lexington Resources said today it has closed the purchase of a lease of 1,536 acres of the Coal Creek CBM Gas Prospect located in Hughes and Pittsburg Counties, Oklahoma.
Further lands under negotiation that form part of the same prospect may also be acquired. The company has paid a total of US$422,500 pursuant to the Coal Creek lease purchase agreement. The prospect's area of mutual interest is comprised of approximately 10,240 gross acres. The company's drilling rights on the acquired acreage relate to all possible producing zones including the Hartshorne coal at approximately 3,500 to 4,000 ft and all higher zones. The Hartshorne coal is the primary producing reservoir coal ranked in the medium to high volatile bituminous category known for CBM production. The company plans for drilling of further horizontal wells into the coal seams located on the prospect. This is the company's third land acquisition since changing its primary business operations to oil and gas development late last year, and brings drillable gas target inventory to approximately 3,872 acres in Oklahoma.
