Biggest Oil Find Ever

> THIS WILL AMAZE YOU !
> Ever heard of the Bakken Formation? GOOGLE it.
> I did, and again, BLEW my mind. The U.S. Geological Service issued a

> The Bakken is the largest domestic oil discovery since
> Alaska's Prudhoe Bay, and has the potential to
> eliminate all American dependence on foreign oil. The
> Energy Information Administration (EIA) estimates it at 503
> billion barrels. Even if just 10% of the oil is
> recoverable... At $107 a barrel, we're looking at a
> resource base worth more than $5.3 trillion. 'When I

> Terry Johnson, the Montana Legislature's financial
> analyst. 'This sizeable find is now the
> highest-producing onshore oil field found in the past 56
> years,' reports The Pittsburgh Post Gazette. It's a
> formation known as the Williston Basin, but is more commonly
> referred to as the 'Bakken.' And it stretches from
> Northern Montana, through North Dakota and into Canada.

> For years, U.S. Oil exploration has been considered a dead

> That's enough crude to fully fuel the American economy

> U.S. Oil Discovery- Largest Reserve in the World!
> Stansberry Report Online - 4/20/2006

> Hidden 1,000 feet beneath the surface of the Rocky

> President Bush mandated its extraction.

> They reported this stunning news: We have more oil inside

> Here are the official estimates:
>
> 8-times as much oil as Saudi Arabia
> 18-times as much oil as Iraq
> 21-times as much oil as Kuwait
> 22-times as much oil as Iran
> 500-times as much oil as Yemen - and it's all right

> James Bartis, lead researcher with the study says we've

> That's more than all the proven oil reserves of crude
