June 16 - Monogram Energy, Inc. in Negotiations for Well in Montana Williston Basin
Monogram Energy, Inc. (OTC: MGRN), an independent energy company engaged in the acquisition, development, and exploitation of oil and gas properties, announced that the Company is in negotiations to work over and complete a well located in the Williston Basin in Montana. A registered professional geologist examined the well and reported the following:
"Based on acceptance of the reservoir model and historical characteristics of the producing formations in the Williston Basin, the well is a viable prospect contingent on plugging back the well bore to above the oil water contact and exploiting existing fracture porosity as a hydrocarbon delivery system. Several features of the well make such a course of action particularly attractive, not least of which is the fact that the well is already drilled and cased."
Mr. Billy King, Chief Executive Officer of Monogram Energy, Inc. stated, "Given this and other studies, it is the generally accepted position that this well has the possibility of producing some 600 barrels per day. Consequently, we are moving forward as quickly as possible."
Mr. King became interested in the production of oil & gas during his ten years of employment as an attorney for the Halliburton Company, and with his representation of independent oil companies during his years as a private practitioner. Monogram Energy's goal is to maintain a high risk/reward profile, thereby enabling them to return the most value to its shareholders.

SymPowerco Sees Increasing Need for Alternative Power Systems
SymPowerco Corporation (OTC: SYMW) CEO John Davenport announced benchmark performance and operational details of SymPowerco Corporation's unique Flowing Electrolyte Direct Methanol Fuel Cell (FE DMFC).
The company's operational 5 Watt (5W) FE DMFC, located in the laboratories of SymPowerco's development partner, Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada, proves the viability of the Flowing Electrolyte principle by demonstrating a 30% improvement in output of the fuel cell stack compared to previous designs. The stack generates up to 5 Watts of power with all cells in the stack converging towards essentially identical performance.
The 5W stack demonstrates that the flowing electrolyte design effectively eliminates inefficiencies caused by methanol crossover, a performance-limiting factor found in other DMFC designs. The 5W stack also demonstrates a viable method of removing methanol from the recirculated electrolyte, a method that indicates the potential for several additional operational and performance benefits in future commercial designs.
The 5W stack has provided SymPowerco and its partners with design criteria and performance data that are serving as benchmarks in the design of the imminent next phase of our Flowing Electrolyte DMFC development program.
Stated SymPowerco CEO, John Davenport, "We are very pleased with this 5W unit. It's going to continue to provide us with design and performance data, even as we ramp up the many aspects of our fuel cell program. Almost everything we do next will be based on the benchmarks provided by this fuel cell stack and the hybrid power system that it powers."

Catalyst Semiconductor Reports Fiscal 2008 Fourth Quarter and Full Year Results
Pacific Gold Corp. (OTCBB: PCFG) announced that it has identified new equipment for the desanding requirements at the Black Rock Canyon mine owned and operated by Nevada Rae Gold, Inc.
The Black Rock Canyon screening plant operates a relatively simple circuit of machinery. First the gold bearing gravels are washed with clean process water. Next the gravel is scrubbed with a series of screens. After being washed and scrubbed the gravel is fed into a centrifugal concentrator where the gold is separated from the gravel and water slurry. Once the gold is removed the remaining gravel and water must then be separated so that the water can be properly recycled and the gravel used for land reclamation.
The screening plant previously failed when after the gold had been removed from the gravel and water slurry, the plant systems could not separate the remaining sand and fine gravels from the plant process water. This caused the sand and gravel to fill up the settling ponds and not allow for the plant to have access to clean process water.
The Company believes that a stacking hydrocyclone added to the screening plant circuit should remove a significant volume of sand and fine gravels that were previously being delivered to the settling ponds. The stacking hydrocyclone specifications show that a significant amount of solids should be removed, prior to the slurry being fed to the plant settling ponds, with a manageable amount of water remaining with the gravel that is removed by the hydrocyclone.
The company has also determined that the use of Geotextile dewatering tubes could potentially eliminate most of the remaining fine gravels from being delivered to the settling ponds and allow for mostly clean water to be reprocessed back into the screening operations.
The Company recently completed a lab test program with Spinpro of Chilliwack, B.C. that showed very promising results using Geotextile tubes. The Company currently has plans to begin a large scale test of the Geotextile tubes at the Black Rock Canyon mine site.
As soon as the remaining plant modifications are completed an on-site test of the new hydrocyclones and Geotextile tubes will begin.

Striker Oil & Gas Continues Revenue Growth Strategy
Striker Oil & Gas, Inc. (OTCBB: SOIS) continues to build upon the investments made in 2007 for acquiring and developing new properties. Company officials say:
We have experienced an increase in oil and gas production and reserves year to year from 2007 to 2008. We continue to implement our drilling program during 2008 as we continue our strategy to grow the company through acquisition and development.
Our drilling and acquisition program in 2007 resulted in the addition of 258,426 barrels of oil and 908,320 Mcf of gas in proved reserves to our holdings. In early June 2008 we completed the second well drilled on our Catfish Creek Prospect located in East Texas. Consulting geologists' reports indicate that this prospect could result in 20 to 40 wells. We recently committed to drilling three more wells over the next three to six months. We continue to evaluate additional drilling and acquisition prospects.
Our reserves were valued at $20M as of December 31, 2007, based upon the standardized measure of discounted future net cash relating to proved reserves method of valuing petroleum reserves. This is a $16M, or 447% increase, over the prior year.
Our oil and gas production increased on a year-to-year basis. 2007 oil production increased 112%, or 16,988 net barrels, over 2006 levels, from 15,172 net barrels in 2006 to 32,160 net barrels in 2007. In addition we added significant gas production of 110,456 Mcf in 2007 compared to none in 2006. This new production coupled with higher oil and gas prices led to record revenues for Striker. Our revenue was up 233% compared to the previous year. The company also increased its gross profit from oil and gas operations 217% for the same period to $2,182,710. As a result, Striker has been able to substantially narrow its operating losses.
In addition, in an effort to further increase revenues from our existing production, the company has entered into an agreement to install a 4-mile gas pipeline to connect its gas production from its Catfish Creek Prospect.
As previously disclosed we have been able to narrow our loss from operations (before non-cash charges) from a loss of $1.8M in 2006 to a loss of $960K in 2007.
We are forecasting revenues of $5M for 2008. We believe that proven efforts to increase production and reserves will have a positive effect on our shareholder value, thus lowering our cost of capital and allowing us to further expand our already successful drilling and acquisition program.
