The main driver for the very rapid, steadily increasing demand of frac sand is
the United States focus on becoming self-sufficient in energy (6 million barrels
new oil per day) by the year 2020 plus the reduction of green house gases. The
demand has been generated by the technology breakthrough of horizontal drilling
combined with multiple fracking. President Obama's climate plan will accelerate
natural gas (NG) usage as well. NG is targeted to replace coal (50% less CO2 and
no mercury) in electrical power generating plants plus there is now the drive to
covert trains and highway trucks from diesel to NG.


Natural sand is the least expensive proppant used in fracking. The demand for
natural frac sand continues to grow and is now 90% of the market. The US mined
and processed 31 million tons of frac sand in 2012 to produce about 2 million
barrels of new shale oil. (USGS and 2nd annual Frac Sand Conference Houston and
Hart Energy Graph DUG Conference Calgary 2013) The 2020 target of energy self
sufficiency requires about 6 million barrels of new oil per day (DUG Conference
Calgary 2013) thus requiring 3 times the amount of frac sand or approx. 90
million tons. The demand for NG continues to grow thus frac sand demand could
even be higher by 2020.


The Canadian frac sand market is growing at the same rate. Saskatchewan and
Alberta added 200,000 barrels of new light and medium crude oil per day in 2012
requiring about 2.8 million tonnes of frac sand. The political will to build NG
pipelines and major LNG export plants in British Columbia is increasing; NG
drilling will substantially increase the demand for frac sand. Canada's 4 frac
sand mines produced less than 2 million tonnes of sand in 2012; the remainder is
imported by rail from the US. 


The largest cost component for frac sand is transportation. Talisman Energy at
the 2013 DUG Conference in Calgary presented a logistics slide for the Winn Bay
Mine at Hanson Lake, Saskatchewan. The frac sand is hauled 98 km by truck to
Flin Flon, Manitoba, railed 2,025 km by CN to Chetwynd, British Columbia and
trucked 120 km to the well. The premium white sand from Winn Bay is 1350 km
closer than the next closest supply; Talisman saving per well approx. $150,000.
Seymourville will have similar logistics and savings for any oil company
serviced by CN, CPR or the Warren Buffet owned BNSF railroad.


Charles Gryba, CEO of Claim Post Resources, stated: "We recognized 18 months ago
that there was a growing market for frac sand and that Claim Post could
transition to becoming an 'Oil Service Company' rather than just being an
exploration company. Timmins mines have used 100 million tons of natural sand
for mine backfill thus it was an easy transition to evaluate mining and
processing frac sand. Similarly, the First Nation people that live near the
proposed "Seymourville Frac Sand Project" have extensive experience as they
worked at mining and processing Black Island silica sand; started in 1928 and
closed in 2004. Others in the local communities have current permitting
experience as well as active mining careers. This financing is the first step in
funding the Seymourville Frac Sand Project."


Claim Post Resources Inc. is a Canadian based mineral exploration company that
is transitioning from gold and base metal exploration into now becoming a frac
sand supplier to Canadian oil and gas industry. Claim Post is a reporting issuer
in Ontario, Alberta and British Columbia. The Company now has a 100% ownership
right in 428 hectares of quarry sand leases and an option to purchase 100% in
the adjoining 306 hectares near Seymourville, Manitoba. The Company intends to
develop the "Seymourville Frac Sand Project" as a source of fracking sand for
the oil and gas industry in Western Canada. Claim Post also has mineral claims
in the Timmins area for gold and base metal exploration. There are 48,288,831
common shares of the Company issued and outstanding.
