Show 0 OIL IN UPPER BASIN herald cortez colo the drill of the san francisco san juan company struck a body of oil late saturday afternoon and bluff citizens are wildly excited the well is located in what is known as the upper baan which up to the present time was not known to be located in the oil district A fine body of oil beems now to underlay the whole bluff section for many miles in each direction and the field will no doubt prove to be a remarkably big one all the wells so far put down to a reasonable depth in the whole district have proven to be producers the oll oil found by this strike is of the same high grade as has been found in the other parts of the proven territory the management expects this well to equal any in the district in a short time and we are assured that the field will in a short time justify a pipe line or railway as other wells have most promising indications |
