1st Well in Williston Basin to be Completed

- 1st Well in Williston Basin to be Completed

Richard J. Watson, Director of Golden Arch Resources Ltd. announces that as a consequence of favorable drill stem test results coupled with interpretation of electric logs, production casing has been run and cemented of the Jan #1 prospect located in T25N-R56W Richland County, Montana is underway. The well target depth of 12,495 feet was reached and completion operations are scheduled to be completed within 3 to 4 weeks.

A drill stem test announced on July 4, 1997 from the Ordovician Red River "C" zone yielded natural gas flows to surface which supported a 20 foot flare and recovery from the test chamber of very light crude (47 degree API). The drill stem test recovered over 10 barrels of oil from the pipe, which suggests a substantial quantity of oil in the target formation.

The company has interests in 39,822 gross acres in the Richland county area on which a fifty square mile 3-D seismic survey has been completed. Interpretation of 3-D acquired data is ongoing. Based on seismic, geological and other data the company expects to generate over 25 drillable prospects in this area. Identification of a second prospect to be drilled is underway as part of the ongoing drilling program for 1997.
