ELEVEN HUNDRED FEET is
REACHED IN MOFFAT WELL

Excellent indications are beng en-
countcred in the drilling activities OF
the Uintah Oil and Exploration COM
pany on its holdings of more han
twenty thousand acres out near MOf-
fat, according to II. J. Walter, prcsi-
dent of the company This company,
financed by Denver, Colo, capital,
has two standard rigs and one Star
operating on its holdings. No. / well
is down approximately eleven hundred
feet and No. 2 about thirteen hundred
feet. Supplies ard equipment to make
drilling possible Ill winter are on the
ground. These wells will be put down
to depth of from twenty-five TO
tweniy-four hundred feet to exploit a
sand believed to be from a hundred to
five hundred feet thick. Basing an
estimate upon the outcrops Of this
sand as exposed around the rim of the
valley, Walter is of the opinion that
the deep sand, the objective Of the
two wells, WILL prove to be one of the
thckest ever exploited. In addition
to the oil prospects of the company,
the ozokerite and the gilsonite opened
up should prove Of considerable value.
A four-foot vein of ozokerite has been
stripped for a distance Of hundred
feet along its strike. The company
plans to erect a plant for the treat
mcnt of this ozokerite. The gilsonite
veins, of which the company has de-
two, are as persistently and
richly minerahzed as the ozokerite.
The gilsonite taken from a vein upon
which ninety.foot shaft has been
sunk averages 90 per cent pure hydro
carbon.
