American Community Development, Inc. (PINK SHEETS: ACDP) ("the Company") announces the signing of a Joint Venture Agreement (Farmin) on up to 35,000 acres of oil and gas exploration lands in Union County, New Mexico, USA; controlled by High Energy Resources Inc. (Farmor).

The 35,000 acres (54 sections) is part of a large dome structure. Six wells have been drilled on the lands, 35 miles of seismic has been shot, and significant geological data (well logs, mapping, etc.) and geophysical data is available. It is planned to reprocess existing seismic and as well shoot an additional seismic program to pin point well locations for up to an initial 6 well program. Multiple zones have been identified from approximately 500 feet to 4,500 feet in depth, with multiple oil and gas showings. The Farmor will be the operator of the project.

A recent engineering report states that if the sands are oil saturated in the 35 sections higher in the structure, the total oil in place could be 407 MM barrels. Using a conservative estimated recovery factor of 10%, 41 MM barrels could be recoverable. Using an oil price of $100 per barrel, this would equate to greater than a $4,000,000,000 ($4 billion) reserve. Management estimates that individual wells that test commercial could produce in the order of 100 plus barrels of oil per day, and have up to 400,000 barrels of oil in reserves.

The Company will have a 50% working interest in the 6 well program, and will be engaged in financing activities over the coming weeks to fund its working interest position.

Management Comment: "The Company considers itself fortunate to have the opportunity to participate in such a large scale oil and gas play resident onshore in the USA. The combination of continued restrictions on offshore drilling, turmoil in the far east, and surging oil prices (recently over $100 per barrel), all of which affects demand - supply balance; makes this an attractive and timely business opportunity to fast track shareholder value."
