Subsequent Event Note (Textual)  
Royalty agreement, description The Plaintiff claims that on December 12, 2003, Nearshore Petroleum Corporation (“Nearshore”) entered into a royalty agreement with Northern Alberta Oil Ltd. (“Northern”) in which Northern granted a 6.5% gross overriding royalty (“GORR”) in all petroleum substances produced, saved and marketed from six of the Company's oil sands leases located within the Company's Sawn Lake properties. The Plaintiff further claims that on September 22, 2006, Nearshore and Gemini Strategies LLC (“Gemini”) entered into a royalty conveyance agreement whereby Nearshore sold 1% of the GORR to Gemini. The Plaintiff further states that Gemini acquired the 1% GORR as agent for Provident, Grey K Fund LP (“Grey K”) and Grey K Offshore Fund Ltd. (“Grey K Offshore”). The Plaintiff further claims that on September 22, 2006, Gemini delivered a notice of assignment, in accordance with the 1993 Canadian Association of Petroleum Landmen Assignment Procedure (the “1993 CAPL”), to the grantors of the 1% GORR, novating Provident (66.67%, net 0.6667%), Grey K (19.33%, net 0.1933%) and Grey K Offshore (14%, net 0.14%) into the GORR agreement.
Plaintiff declaration, description 1) A declaration that the Plaintiff is the legal owner of 0.67% of the GORR payable on all oil sands produced from the lands which is payable by one or more of the Defendants; 2) An accounting to determine the amount of the outstanding royalty of which judgment is estimated by the Plaintiff to be in the amount of $100,000 Cdn; and 3) Interest and costs. The Company continues to deny the validity of the Purported 6.5% Royalty in the first instance. As well, if the Purported 6.5% Royalty was valid, which is denied, it was not a gross overriding interest, but rather an overriding interest, which allowed for the deduction of operating and marketing costs. The Company plans to vigorously defend itself against the Plaintiff’s claims.
