International Frontier Resources Corporation: Canadian National Energy Board Assessment Increases Oil and Gas Resources in NWT

CALGARY, ALBERTA–(Marketwired – Dec. 2, 2014) – International Frontier Resources Corporation (“IFR” or the “Company”) (TSX VENTURE:IFR) today announced that in a report dated November 25, 2014 the Canadian National Energy Board (“NEB”) increased the overall resource assessment for the Northwest Territories (“NWT”) discovered conventional petroleum resource volumes to:

• 16.4 TCF of marketable natural gas
• 1227.8 million barrels of crude oil; and
• 53.3 million barrels of natural gas liquids

The report is the first of its kind – compiling the data of the discovered petroleum resources in the NWT Mainland, NWT Arctic Islands and the Beaufort Sea into one report. The report includes a number of natural gas discoveries made in the NWT since 1999. In 2004 and in 2006 IFR participated in two discoveries in the Sahtu region of the central Mackenzie Valley, the new NEB report assigns the Summit Creek and Stewart Significant Discovery Licenses (“SDL”) the following gross resources;

MMB = Million barrels – MMBOE @ 6:1 conversion

The NEB did not establish economic criteria related to the development of conventional resources nor did it assess unconventional resources in the NWT.

International Frontier commissioned McDaniel & Associates Consultants Ltd. to do a detailed analysis of the prospective unconventional Devonian and Cretaceous shale formations in ten wells located on, or in close proximity to, IFR’s acreage. The report dated November 2014 assigns preliminary estimated average volumes of undiscovered original oil in place (OOIP) and recoverable OOIP within the Canol and Bluefish Devonian Formations for wells J-65, L-71, K-44, B-20, D-57, H-64 and B-09 in the Mackenzie Plain as follows;

Undiscovered shale oil initially in place is that quantity of petroleum that is estimated, as of, January 1, 2014 to be contained in accumulations yet to be discovered.

The McDaniel report included a cursory review of Cretaceous Age Formations that are also prospective in the region however the report did not assign resource estimates.
