American Sands Energy Corp. to Present at EnerCom's The Oil & Gas

Sands Energy Corp. Aug 12, 2014 11:16 AM
SALT LAKE CITY, Aug. 12, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- American Sands Energy Corp. (OTCBB: AMSE, "AMSE" or the "Company"), an oil sands exploration and development company operating in Utah, today announced that management will present at EnerCom's The Oil & Gas Conference® 19.

Date: August 21, 2014 at 10:25 AM, ET
Location: Westin Denver Downtown, Denver, CO
Webcast: http://www.oilandgas360.com/togc-webcast/americansands/

Daniel Carlson, Company CFO, will be presenting at the conference, which will be webcast live and also archived for a year. For more information or to schedule a one-on-one meeting, please visit the conference website at http://www.enercominc.com/the-oil-and-gas-conference/.

This company looks interesting to me, as I see getting the permits and financing doable. As far as huge potential though that would depend on the expansion to the 50k bbd, with all the drilling being done in the uinta basin now to meet all the expanding needs of local refineries and the oil being bituman so pretty much limited to trucking it where would that much new supply be sold?

SALT LAKE CITY, June 10, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- American Sands Energy Corp. (AMSE) ("AMSE" or the "Company"), an oil sands exploration and development company operating in Utah, is pleased to announce that William H. Champion, an experienced mining industry executive, has been appointed to the Company's board of directors.

Mr. Champion joins the board of directors having most recently spent over eleven years with Rio Tinto PLC, during which time he managed various mining subsidiaries. While at Rio Tinto, Mr. Champion's roles included:

Managing Director of Rio Tinto Coal Australia (2009-2013) where he was responsible for the operations of six open pit and one underground coal mine with annual revenues of approximately $ 4.5 billion, annual earnings exceeding $1 billion and over 4,500 employees,
Managing Director of Rio Tinto Diamonds (2007-2009) with responsibility for three diamond mines producing 35 million carats annually,
President and CEO of Kennecott Utah Copper Corporation (2002-2007), one of the largest open pit mines in the world, with revenue of approximately $2.5 billion and earnings of approximately $1.5 billion.
"I'm delighted to be joining the board of American Sands," said Mr. Champion. "AMSE has an exciting project at Sunnyside and a technology that has the potential to be game-changing in the unconventional heavy oil sector."

"We welcome the addition of a mining veteran of Mr. Champion's caliber to our board of directors," stated William Gibbs, AMSE's Chairman and CEO. "His years of successfully running Utah based mining facilities along with his significant experience managing mines, always with a focus on safety and sustainability, will be instrumental to developing our operations as we turn our focus towards commencing production."

AMSE has huge blue-sky potential. Of course, each investor should discount the ultimate upside in the stock based on his/her own view of the likelihood of reaching the blue-sky potential. But, the bull case is $10 per fully-diluted share, (pro forma for the $75 million capital raise coming early next year). Note, not all of that $75 million will be equity, there could be a debt component.

At first blush, $10 per fd share sounds wildly optimistic. It would probably take 2-3 years to get to $10/share, but if AMSE can 1) get permits issued 2) raise $75 million of equity + debt and 3) get oil flowing by 2h 2016, then the probability of the company being able to fund, build and ramp up a 50k bpd facility 4-5 years later goes way, way up. Since the permitting and funding hurdles are closer to 1 year away, I think the stock could comfortably double or triple within 12 months.

How much of a haircut should AMSE receive for it's funding and permitting risk? Well, those are important challenges for sure, but compare a raise of $75 million with a raise of billion(s) for some potash and iron ore juniors. Compare 2 years until 1st production with 5-15 years for some oil & gas, potash and uranium juniors. Compare infrastructure access in Utah to that of Africa or central Asia. Compare rule of law in Utah to that of frontier or emerging countries in Africa and elsewhere.

AMSE is highly speculative, but the KEY risks of permitting and funding for a project in Utah seem to me to be mild (on a relative basis) to the myriad of risks facing so many other natural resource companies. Yet, the BIG upside remains for both AMSE and those other high risk plays.

Wow, this one was looking good until I noted that they are handing out shares for debt at about a 50% discount. I will keep and eye here for an entry point more fitting to what management is valuing this position at.

American Sands Energy Corp. Announces Water-Free "Environmental Solution" to Oil Sands Mining in Utah



8:30 AM ET 6/4/13 | PR Newswire

American Sands Energy Corp. (OTCBB: AMSE, "AMSE" or the "Company"), an oil sands exploration and development company operating in Utah, said today it has developed an "environmental solution" with its proprietary oil sands extraction technology.

"Continued testing of our extraction process at our pilot facility confirms that our technology is scalable and environmentally friendly, recovering over 99 percent of our proprietary extraction solvent without the use of any water," said William Gibbs, CEO of the Company. "This is a first in our industry. Our solution results in no tailing ponds or associated environmental hazards as compared to traditional oil sands extraction methodologies. We have also completed initial engineering and mining feasibility studies and, based on those studies, estimate our targeted production cost at $49 per barrel or less, which is very compelling. We are continuing work to further define these costs."

The Company explained that it has now successfully run oil sands through its pilot facility from a number of different locations, including its site at Sunnyside, Utah, in addition to oil sands from deposits at Asphalt Ridge, Utah, and Africa, in each case producing clean, dry sand and bitumen, a heavy oil. "These results confirm that our process not only works well on the oil sands from our large resource deposit at Sunnyside, but also on other 'oil wet' deposits from other locations. This significantly expands the potential for us to deploy our technology on similar oil sands deposits both in the United States and other locations around the world," Gibbs said.

Justin R. Swift, a Company director and former U.S. Department of Energy official noted, "American Sands is to be commended for developing this new technology. This clean technology is good for the state and its economy and will help the United States become energy independent, while not harming the environment." Swift is the founder and principal of Swift Global Results, a private consulting firm in the clean energy field. From 2005 through 2009 he served as Deputy Assistant Secretary for International Affairs in the Office of Fossil Fuel, U.S. Department of Energy.

American Sands also announced that it is in the process of completing the environmental studies and other requirements to file for its large mine permit for 1,800 acres of private land. Robin Gereluk, Chief Operating Officer, commented, "We have completed most of the environmental work and mine planning and anticipate filing for the permit within the next 90 days."

Anything new going on here? Look like the selling dried up. Nice share structure.

Bid creeping up.

Nice video. Stock looked primed to run.

Good volume day for AMSE. Strange bid bang at end of day to get low of day close.

American Sands Energy Corporation Video

Take a look at AMSE, American Sands Energy Corp. Per their website they have 200 million barrels of PROVEN reserves. Typically these oil sand deals are valued at $1 per barrel of proven reserves in the ground, which in this case would put the valuation around $200 million. Given that there are 28.8 million shares outstanding, that would put a vauation of approximately $6.94 per share.

This is one seriously undervalued stock. On September 7, 2012, AMSE President Andrew Rosenfeld purchased 350,000 shares of AMSE @ $1.15/share for a total of $402,500 per his filing. This is a serious purchase that needs to be noted.

This is one of the most undervalued stocks I have ever seen. Take a look at the Company's website and the filings and do your own due diligence as one should always do. This is only down here because this isnt on anyones radar yet.

May be in play soon here
