RE: Location of GXS vs NOGIn Estevan the coal is shallow and the oil is deep, the two of them being together is just a geological coincidence. What these two deposits have in common is that they are on the edge where the Prairie sediments start to pinch out against the Cdn Shield. Personally I thing that these discoveries could easily be the tip of the iceburg and for that reason. I have keeping my eye out for these type of companies since I searched out and invested in BQI, then Canwest Petroleum, at 40 cents after a local in La Loche told me of oil sand out crops in the area.
