Sundance Energy to drill first well on Alexander First Nation

Sundance Energy Corp. is progressing on schedule towards drilling the first test well on its Alexander First Nations permit. Sundance has completed the required survey, is presently conducting the required environmental assessment and is in the process of obtaining a surface lease and a drilling license for the test well. Drilling operations on the Sundance 16-11 well are scheduled to get underway no later than mid- December. In addition, an environmental assessment for a proposed 69 square kilometre 3D seismic program on the Alexander lands is currently underway. It is anticipated that all or a large portion of the 3D seismic program will begin in the first quarter of 2012. Sundance Energy’s primary focus is exploring for petroleum and natural gas on First Nation lands in Western Canada.
