Continental Ridge oversubscribes private placement

Tue 28 May 2002

Mr. Jack Milligan reports
FINANCING OVER-SUBSCRIBED, DRILLING INTERSECTS HIGH TEMPE ...
Continental Ridge has oversubscribed the private placement announced in
Stockwatch May 14, 2002. A total of 300,000 units have been placed at a
price of 35 cents per unit with each unit comprising one common share and
one-half of one non-transferable share purchase warrant. The $105,000 in
gross proceeds will be used to finance the evaluation of other geothermal
prospects in Nevada/California and for additional working capital.
President Brian Fairbank also reports that the first temperature
measurement in the Deep Blue No. 1 test well currently being drilled has
exceeded company expectations. A temperature measurement at approximately
100 metres depth returned a temperature of 80 C after an 18-hour
equilibration period, which is above the 40 C per 100-metre gradient that
was anticipated. Although it is only one temperature reading, management
takes it as further evidence that a hot, shallow geothermal reservoir is
present at Blue Mountain.
The test well has been cased to about 175 metres in depth and drilling
should speed up now that the casing has been completed. Total depth for the
well should be reached within two weeks, at which time the well will
undergo a testing program to determine temperature gradient and flow rate.
Continental Ridge has also been invited to apply for funding by the United
States Department of Energy to drill a second deep test well later this
year on a different portion of the Blue Mountain property. If the
application is successful, the second deep test well would be added to the
phase 2 resource delineation drill program.
