CALGARY, AB / ACCESSWIRE / March 13, 2014 / Groundstar Resources Limited. ("Groundstar", "the "Company", "we", "us", or "our") (TSXV: GSA US: GRDSF) is pleased to announce the successful completion of the second well in Saskatchewan of a multi-well drilling program. The 4-13-45-26 ( 4-13 ) W4 Mannville producer which was a follow up well to the 3-13-45-26 W4 ( 3-13 ) location drilled in late 2013, is currently producing 80 barrels of oil per day. Based upon the performance of the 3-13 well, the 4-13 production volumes may be increased. With a recent pump upsize at the 3-13 well, it is anticipated Groundstar's combined net corporate production may be approximately 80 to 100 boed.

The company has also executed a one year secured debenture agreement with an eastern US based institution "Credit Fund" LP for up to a $10,000,000 debenture facility at 10 percent per annum. Closing of any facility remains subject to changes and certain conditions of the investor and borrower. There can be no assurances that any agreement will close. Recent work in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin is part of an orderly transition of Groundstar which includes a more balanced approach in actively pursuing production acquisitions and high netback lower risk drilling opportunities. The production acquisition opportunities are characterized by long life, large original oil and gas in place reservoirs with access to existing transportation, infrastructure and market points.

The recent acquisition and re-processing of a large 3D seismic program in Alberta has resulted in the identification of several high impact drilling targets which may be drilled after spring breakup. These conventional, light oil and gas targets represent multi-zone opportunities for high volume, high quality reserve development in areas of existing infrastructure and market access. Groundstar has approximately $2.0 million of working capital on hand and will file quarterly financial results at the end of March.
