Blackdog Resources Ltd. ("Blackdog" or "the Company") (TSX VENTURE:DOG) is
pleased to announce that after successfully testing its Leduc Reef light oil
exploration well near Sylvan Lake, Alberta, Blackdog and its partners are in the
process of installing a pipeline to tie the well in for production. The pipeline
has been surveyed and permitted and Blackdog and its partners expect to begin
construction this week with a goal to have the well on production within 21
days. Blackdog has a 15% working interest in the well and entire section of land
that the well is situated on. During limited testing over 5 days, the well flow
tested at rates exceeding 225 barrels of oil equivalent per day ("boepd") (35
boepd to Blackdog) without the aid of artificial lift of any kind.


The Company was only able to flow the well for just under 100 hours before
Blackdog and its partners were forced to shut the well in due to exceeding the
allowable limit set by the AEUB for flaring gas. The well free flowed oil with
both oil cuts and produced oil increasing every day during testing. The final
flow rates for oil were in the range of a 35% oil cut and over 50 barrels of oil
per day. The Company expects these rates will continue to increase as due to the
short period of the test, the Company has not yet recovered all the load water
used during final testing process plus the load water added to the well to aid
in the retrieval of lost downhole tools. The last sample showed the oil had an
API of 44.1. The well strongly produced gas at constant rates of approximately
630,000 cubic feet per day (105 boepd) and 78 barrels of gas liquids per day
which is why the test period was so short. The Company is very pleased with
these results and has also identified 2 potential locations for follow up wells
on the joint partner's land.


Blackdog is a junior oil and gas company focused on the development of light and
medium oil properties in Southeast Saskatchewan and Alberta. The Company has
24,578,318 Common Shares outstanding.

The term "barrels of oil equivalent" or "boe" may be misleading, particularly if
used in isolation. A "boe" conversion ratio of 6 Mcf:1 bbl is based on an energy
equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does
not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.
