The TAO-1 exploration well was designed to optimally test the Trident prospect in
carbonates of Middle Jurassic age. The well was drilled to a total depth of 3,518m MD
and did not encounter favourable reservoir quality at Trident.
As previously reported by Tangiers, (28 July 2014), no hydrocarbon shows were
encountered at Assaka the younger secondary objective in the Upper Jurassic.
The TAO-1 well will now be plugged and abandoned in line with standard industry
practice.
The exploration results from TAO-1 will be integrated into the regional basin analysis by
Tangiers and its co-venture partners to further evaluate and assess the prospectivity of
the Tarfaya Offshore Blocks I VIII.
Please find attached a release made by the Operator, Galp Energia.
Tangiers' Managing Director, Dave Wall said: "The Company is disappointed that
success was not achieved at TAO-1 and we wish to thank our shareholders for their
support over the recent challenging period. Tangiers Board and Management remains
firmly focussed on creating value for shareholders and look forward to providing
updates on New Ventures initiatives in the not too distant future."

Your choice of words leaves me in little doubt that you have lost a significant amount of money on this stock.
I have also experienced such losses on speculative stock.
I borrowed 10,000 on a gold stock before the gold price skyrocketed but the company went bust before the gains were made. Add this to the losses on the oil company I invested in which went bust before the oil price skyrocketed and we are talking a lot of money.
It was a difficult thing to discuss with my wife as she was against it from the beginning.
I think we should consider starting our own self help group....S.S.A.......spec stocks anonymous.
Our meetings would start with something like this.......Hi I'm tolly_67 and I bought ( whatever shitty stock it was )........
