drilling and development work on Block 406a and Block 405b in Algeria.
In a statement, the company said it recorded a foreign exchange loss of 1.5 mln
usd in the three months to March due to the strengthening of the US dollar
against the Canadian dollar and the pound deposits held in the quarter.

Interest and other income increased to 0.6 mln usd during the period due to the
higher average cash and term-deposit balances on hand in the quarter from the
December 2004 equity financing.

Capital expenditures in the first quarter totaled 12.5 mln usd versus 14.2 mln
usd the year before.

As at end March, First Calgary had working capital of 38 mln usd versus 52.1 mln
usd end 2004.

large acreage blocks, Ledjmet Block 405b and Yacoub Block 406a.
