19.36 & 23.43 - The RNS from the previous week to that one might be more relevant to what we're looking at now?

The map in the latest news is indicating a depth of around 7,500'. There's comentary in this 2015 RNS of 4,000' to 4,400', but also mentions upto 8,500'.
From 21 Dec 2015:
The HRZ remains the primary target at Icewine and results to date are encouraging for the play in
the project area, although full evaluation will not be complete for several months. Additionally,
preliminary petrophysical analysis of the logs acquired in the intermediate section from 3,500’ –
8,500’ are encouraging for Brookian conventional potential at Icewine#1 and across the
leasehold.
For example, one of several conventional zones of interest in the Brookian sequence at
Icewine#1 extends from approximately 4,000’ to 4,400’ and comprises a series of three stacked
fine grained sandstone to siltstone sequences within the Schrader Bluff Formation. The
sequences range from 61’ to 110’ in gross thickness with net:gross ranging from 78% – 100%.
The average porosities of the clastic sequences are within the range of 18% - 19% with peaks of
up to 28% porosity. Preliminary petrophysical analysis supports oil saturations in these sandstone
units above 60% and up to 75%. Hydrocarbon shows whilst drilling this interval encountered mud
log gas shows comprising predominantly C1 and minor oil shows, likely due to the fact that this
interval is not within closure.
The commercial implications of these hydrocarbon bearing Brookian sandstones will be fully
investigated following the completion of the well. The indications of significant volumes of oil in
the system and excellent reservoir are highly encouraging on a regional basis. The challenge is
now to find the oil within closure on the Project Icewine leasehold, which requires 3D seismic.
