It's being called "the #1 oil play in the country."
It was only a year ago that the U.S. Geological Survey called the Bakken "the largest continuous oil accumulation it has ever assessed."
With 4.35 billion barrels of recoverable oil in place -- the Bakken is already a homerun play for domestic oil companies and individual investors.
And now we're looking at a staggering turn to the upside.
That's because geologists and oil industry officials are saying we may have a "second Bakken" on our hands... one that could literally double the Bakken's already-prolific output.
It's called the 3 Forks - Sanish oil formation, and it lies directly underneath the Bakken.
Here's what Lynn Helms, Director of North Dakota's Dept. of Mineral Resources, has to say about it:
"I think it's a big deal, and we're pretty fired up about it... Eventually it could equal the Bakken, which is remarkable... and that is an understatement. That could literally double the potential we have -- a Bakken 2, if you will."
And for investors, the timing couldn't be better.
Recently our Bakken stocks have locked in gains of 115%, 55%, 43% and 33%.
And we're only getting started.
