Freestone Resources, Inc. Announces Successful Laboratory Tests and Analysis of Its Oil Extraction Technology

Comments Off
March 1  |  News  |   Freestone Resources

DALLAS, TX–(Marketwire – 03/01/11) – Freestone Resources, Inc. (OTC.BB:FSNR – News) announced today that in collaboration with a leading Texas University, tests have been conducted and a detailed analysis of the company’s oil sand oil extraction, and oil remediation technology were performed. The tests indicated that over 96% of the hydrocarbons were removed and approximately 99% of the chemicals were recovered.

Freestone Resources provided the university with a sample of Alberta oil sands in order to conduct several comprehensive tests that replicate the process utilized in Freestone’s demonstration unit.

To implement the multi-day tests, a sample of the Alberta oil sands were weighed and measured to exact specifications prior to testing. The oil sands were mixed and agitated with the chemicals and then the clean sand was separated from the oil and chemicals, collected and weighed. In a secondary process the chemicals were separated from the oil. Clear differences were observed in the oil sands before and after extraction on both macroscopic and microscopic scales.

The test results also indicated that Freestone’s process will yield an approximate 99% recovery of the chemicals used. Further chromatograph analysis showed that the recovered chemicals had no significant change from the original chemicals utilized in the process indicating that the chemicals can be selectively and effectively recovered and reused for maximum economic efficiency. The chemicals that were successfully tested by the University are non-carcinogenic, non-chlorinated, non-flammable, non-ozone depleting, and not considered hazardous. In addition, the university is conducting tests on other hydro-carbon containing mediums with Freestone’s technology.

One of the most significant factors in Freestone’s technology is that no water is used thereby not contributing to any water pollution or contamination.

Clayton Carter, Chief Executive Officer of Freestone Resources, stated, “We are very pleased to have a leading university confirm our conviction that we have developed a ground breaking technology that is desperately needed not only domestically but internationally. We believe that we can demonstrate and show that our technology clearly separates us from the past and current processes being used in oil sand oil extraction, and oil remediation. We look forward to continue working with the university on this innovative technology.”

As previously announced Freestone’s successful demonstrations have resulted in intense interest from multiple groups, and negotiations are presently underway to build large commercial-grade units. Freestone will continue to demonstrate the technology to potential financial and strategic partners.

February 3  |  News  |   Freestone Resources

DALLAS, TX–(Marketwire – 02/03/11) – Freestone Resources, Inc. (OTC.BB:FSNRNews) is pleased to announce that it has successfully demonstrated its prototype oil sand oil extraction, and oil remediation technology. The prototype unit was specifically designed to demonstrate Freestone’s ability to separate oil from oil sand and oil contaminated soil without the use of steam or toxic chemicals.

This innovative oil extraction technology was developed, and is wholly owned by Freestone Resources. The fabrication of the prototype machine was completed with assistance from one of the leading technology development engineering firms. The management at Freestone is very pleased with the demonstration. A demonstration has also been performed for Freestone’s various financial partners that will begin working with Freestone in order to build commercial scale units in the immediate future. Freestone will be updating its website in order to provide more detailed information on this state of the art technology.

Current oil sand extraction technology produces toxic tailing ponds. It has been reported that there are over sixty-six square miles of toxic lakes in Canada, and this number will continue to grow unless alternative methods are utilized industry wide. It is estimated that 43% of Canada’s oil comes from oil sands, and it is believed that the reliance on oil sands as a source of energy will continue to grow. Many experts believe we have experienced, or will experience, “peak oil” in the near future which is the point in time when the maximum rate of global petroleum extraction is reached, after which the rate of production enters terminal decline. Thus, Canada’s oil sands production will become increasingly important to supply the world’s oil demand.

Freestone’s successful demonstrations have resulted in immediate interest from multiple groups, and negotiations are underway to build commercial-grade units. Over the next few weeks Freestone will continue to demonstrate the technology to its financial and strategic partners. “We feel that this is a pivotal and historic moment in the history of Freestone Resources, and we are thrilled with the growing interest in the technology,” said Clayton Carter, Chief Executive Officer of Freestone Resources. “Over the next year our goal is to develop partnerships that will allow for the utilization of our technology in the various oil extraction applications.”
