Rivers Reservation.
Canadian Decalta Gas & Oils, Ltd. negotiated an
Imperial Oil Co. of Canada Ltd., granting to Imperial
an
option to earn a 50%
undivided interest in the reservation, in
consideration of the performance
by Imperial of certain geological
work and the expenditure of $250,000 on
actual drilling operations.
By agreement dated March 14, 1953, the company purchased from
Canadian Decalta an 8%
interest in a series of gross royalty certifi¬
cates in 14 quarter sections in the Rimbey area of Alberta Province.
There
are
at the
present time five producing oil wells within the
group and cne dry hole.
There are no producing gas wells.
On or about Sept. 2, 1953, the company entered into an agreement
with Canadian Decalta and others providing for the creation of
an
investment
trust for the purpose of investing in oil royalty points
primarily in western Canada. The term of the trust was initially for
a
period of two years.
However, the participants therein have deter¬
mined not to terminate the trust and it is being continued by mutual
verbal agreement.
Under the terms of the trust, the company is
entitled to participate to the extent of 5%
in all royalty points ac¬
quired by the investment of the capital of the fund, including the
Income received and the proceeds of sale thereof.
The company received its
first royalty payments under the trust
agreement in September, 1954, and from that time to March 4, 1955,
the company's total receipts have amounted to $225.11.
The company
has received no income from this trust since March, 1955.
In October,
1953, the company acquired for a total consideration
of $22 478.C8 undivided interests in three oil, gas and mineral leases
in Jackson County, Texas.
On Feb. 15, 1955, the interests were sold
to the South Texas Oil & Gas Co. in exchange for 84,479 shares of
common stock of the said company.
,
.
On
May
6,
1955, the company acquired, by agreement, certain
options relating to the mineral and mining rights in two blocks of
patented ground (one tract being 160 acres and the other tract being
240 acres), in San Miguel County, Colo.
These tracts are under lease
to
the Black Mammoth Consolidated Mining Co. for a term ending
Dec
21
1S56 with privilege in the lessee to extend the lease for an
additional term of seven years.
Under the lease, the Black Mammoth
Consolidated Mining Co. is granted rights, among others, to conduct
exploratory operations
and to mine the properties during the term
of the lease and the extension thereof, subject to a 2y2%
over-riding
interest and to the payment of a royalty of 7'/2%
of the proceeds of
all ores mined and sold on or before Dec. 21, 1956, and a royalty of
15%
