A
special
company
with
a
special task
in
a
special country
Background
Zion
Oil
& Gas was formed in 2000 by John Brown, a man of deep Christian faith. The
company, which is listed on the American Stock Exchange, explores for oil and
gas on two onshore exploration licenses covering approximately 162,000 acres
between Tel Aviv and Haifa.
Vision
From
day
one, the calling of Zion Oil & Gas was to assist in the restoration of the
Land by finding oil and gas, helping to make Israel politically and economically
independent.
Faith
& Science
In
the
beginning, Zion operated on faith alone, but today it is also based on hard
science. Zion's geologists have put together a country-wide seismic database
consisting of 219 seismic sections totaling 2,000 miles, so as to better
understand the geology of the license areas. We have included information
gathered from all of the wells drilled in Israel.
The
Zion
team is developing four leads and one prospect in the license areas and, based
on these studies, we believe that there are prospective hydrocarbonbearing
intervals at depths between 12,500 and 18,000 feet and that there may be
approximately 20,000 productive acres.
In
2005,
Zion drilled the Ma'anit #1 well on the Ma'anit structure in the
Joseph license
area, and shows of hydrocarbons were recorded from 12,000 feet to 15,500 feet,
but due to mechanical problems the well was abandoned in June 2007.
The
Future
However,
a tremendous amount was learned and, armed with that knowledge, the company
plans to re-enter the same wellbore this year and then 'sidetrack' (drill
directionally) to a distance approximately 2,500 feet northeast of the present
location by the time the well reaches its true vertical depth
of
18,040 feet (in the Permian section
of the Paleozoic Age).

New
Public Offering
Zion
has
licenses, scientific data, technology, qualified, experienced and honest people.
But oil and gas exploration costs money, so we need investors. In the event
of
success, the investors' reward may be great, not only financially but also
in
the knowledge
of being part of something truly
biblical and prophetic.
Zion's
underwriter is now accepting subscriptions at $10 per unit. Each unit will
consist of one share of Zion stock + one warrant. The warrant will allow you
to
buy another share at a fixed price of $7 until January 31, 2012, irrespective
of
the price on the stock market.
So
a $10
subscription will buy one share of Zion stock plus the right (but not the
obligation) to buy one more share at a fixed price of $7 at any time from late
2008 until January 31, 2012). The minimum subscription is 100 units or $1,000.
The
full
details are set out in the Prospectus which is available to download and review
on our website www.zionoil. com on the 'Investor Relations' page.
