03.09.2014  |  Marketwire

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Sep 3, 2014) - Claim Post Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:CPS) (the "Company" or "Claim Post") is pleased to announce that the Company has signed an Engagement Letter with P&E Mining Consultants Inc. ("P&E") to complete a Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") on the Company's Seymourville Frac Sand Project located approximately 200 km north east of Winnipeg, Manitoba. P&E will be retaining Consultec Ltd. ("Consultec") to assist in the preparation of the PEA. Claim Post has also retained Robert Ober & Associates ("Robert Ober") to provide technical input into the frac sand plant material handling design plus complete a preliminary design of a transload facility in Winnipeg. The PEA will be prepared according to the guidelines set out in National Instrument 43-101. P&E is a firm of consultants, independent from the Company, recognized for its expertise in mining geology, exploration and engineering.

Claim Post has recently reported an initial NI 43-101 Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate of 25,000,000 tonnes of high quality silica sand on approximately 20% of the Project License Area for the Seymourville Frac Sand Project (Sedar, June 20th 2014.) The PEA Technical Report forms an integral part of the Company's business plan and will be used by the Company to support financing activities or decision making processes regarding further economic analysis and development plans of the Project. The Company expects the PEA to be completed by the fourth quarter of 2014.

Charles Gryba, President and CEO of Claim Post Resources Inc. stated, "The PEA is a major step forward in evaluating the economics of the Seymourville Frac Sand Project. To date we have not been able to project the capital and operating costs of the project thus the independent PEA results will be of substantial interest to all our stakeholders."

About the Frac Sand Market

The market for natural frac sand continues to grow at a high rate in North America (approximately 35% per annum) with production reaching about 38, 000,000 tonnes in the US in 2013. Raymond James Ltd. in their June 30th 2014 Research Report, estimates a year over year increase in proppants of 13,200,000 tonnes in 2014 with a further increase of 9,000,000 tonnes in 2015. By 2016 the production mainly located in Wisconsin could be in the order of 60,400,000 tonnes. The Canadian market is about 10% of the North American market.

Claim Post's Seymourville Frac Sand Deposit is approximately 1,000 km closer to the Canadian market than the Wisconsin sand deposits; this indicates the potential for significant transportation savings in addition to the Canadian dollar differential. The Canadian oil and gas industry will continue to import natural frac sand for the foreseeable future thus Seymourville sand will be priced relative to imported sand plus the freight cost from Wisconsin to Canada.

Claim Post is evaluating a transload facility at the Centre Port site in Winnipeg which will provide unit train loading with access to CN, CPR and the BNSF railroads. In addition, Claim Post will provide bulk truck or container service to the oil industry in Manitoba, Saskatchewan and the U.S. side of the Williston Basin. Containers delivered to the well site are very economic within a 600 km range from the Winnipeg transload facility.
