A local building contractor fell from scaffolding holding his Makita 24volt cordless drill with a 1/2 inch auger bit, as he hit the ground the drill sprung to life and Jethro (the building contractor) struck pay dirt in the well known Panakawa zone on the New Guinea Oil's PPL267 tennament.
The contractor sustained minor injuries, his eyes were flushed from oil and after a wipe down was back to work.
NGE's spoksman said the company was most appreciative as the contractor saved them $10,000,000 so they have offered the contractor a job drilling the 100km long Panakawa oil seeps and building well distribution heads to which he would be paid handsomely, he also was given a slab of VB.
Shareholders were also happy because the SP went from a measly 18.5cps to $3.00, so they also sent the contractor a slab or VB.
This is a very happy story and I hope you all have a happy Easter.
Cheers P
