News Releases Wednesday, March 22, 2005 International TME Resources Inc. Is Receiving Oil & Gas Revenue From The Mirage Oil Field In South Australia Dallas, Texas, Wednesday, March 22, 2006 — International TME Resources Inc. (ITME) OTC announces that the company is receiving oil & gas revenue from TME's ORRI holdings under PEL 115, located in the prolific Cooper/Eromanga Basin. PEL 115 consists of 273,297 gross acres and consists of six (6) separate tracts. PEL 115 surrounds the oil & gas producing fields at Dullingari, Toolachee, Strzelecki, Della, and Kidman with cumulative recoverable reserves of 104 million barrels of oil and 2.5 TCF of gas. The operator, Victoria Petroleum NL, has drilled a total of six wells on PEL 115. So far, five out of the six wells drilled on PEL 115 have been completed and put into production or are waiting production testing.
About The Mirage Oil Field:
Mirage-3 DST Flows Oil - 324 BOPD Open hole DST No.1 over the Murta formation interval 1317-1330 meters recovered 27 barrels of clean oil with no water in the drill string over a two hour flow period equating to an estimated flow rate of 324 barrels of oil per day. The results of this DST are similar to those for the producing Mirage-1, the discovery well for the Mirage Oil Field and confirm the extension of the Mirage oil pool to this northern portion of the Mirage Oil Field. The Murta oil sands, the primary target for Mirage-3, are producing 970 meters to the southwest at Mirage-1. TME is very pleased with the DST test results and the completion of the Mirage-3 well.
How Big Is The Mirage Oil Field? This means that the Mirage Oil Field has either a stratigraphic component or the Mirage Oil Field is larger than first mapped. The interpretation of the 3D data set suggests that Mirage-1 could be part of a larger feature covering approximately 20 square kilometers that includes the Lightning and Jindivik prospects five kilometers to the northeast. Using conservative reservoir parameters, such an area has the possibility of containing up to 20 million barrels of oil in place.
Additional Drilling On The Mirage Oil Field TME is pleased to commence the drilling of the third development well, Mirage-4 on the Mirage Oil Field after the initial discovery well Mirage-1. If the production testing of Mirage-2 & Mirage-3 on the Mirage Oil Field is successful, as we hope it will be, we should see an increase in production from the current 480 barrels of oil per day to a possible target of approximately 800 +/- barrels of oil per day. Any increase in oil production from the Mirage Oil Field would be timely in this current time of high oil prices. Further exploration drilling will take place on TME's ORRI after the Mirage-4 development well, with the drilling of the Lightning-1, Jindivik-1 & Tomcat-1 exploration wells on PEL 115.

Onshore This Basin was tied up by a consortium for many decades. Millions of acres were unavailable and these have just recently been opened for exploration by other companies. TME may acquire additional interests in Australia and anticipates substantial cash flows from these basins as fields are developed and production is achieved.
