I have been around a very long time and I have never heard John Brown claim to be a prophet. I agree whole heartedly that he is not a prophet, but to put him in hte same category as a Harold Camping is sinister. I am also very offended by your accusation that some (I assume many on this Board) are so full of pride they cannot admit they are wrong;. You seem to have put all your value in the fact that oil has not yet been produced and JB et al al are intentionally "stringing all of us along." Let's talk about arrogance, shall we. You act as though you have been to the mountain top where you personally gained knowledge no one else has and because of your incredible pride, everyone who believes differently, is deceived. Other than perhaps Bruce, I don't think many on this board care much about what you have to say.
You are so right! Regarding the sun causing cancer, read Psalm 121 verse 6. It has always been there for folks to read.
Exactly.
John Brown is not a Prophet of the Lord like Moses or any of God's prophets.
John Brown isn't a Prophet nor one of God's chosen leaders at all.
He's a man that heard something that sparked his interest so much so that he decided to pursue it and say, "God said..." just like people like Harold Camping who had people believe not once but twice that Jesus was returning for his church in 2012.
John Brown and the B.O.D. are people who know how to make money and keep it coming while while not producing anything. I think some people pride is so big that they won't admit they're wrong and that John Brown and company are doing nothing but stringing all of us along.
It's also true God does not have to put oil where John Brown demands it.
Another "inspirational email" from John Brown.
Here's mine...
Jesus said, "behold I come quickly...) that was nearly 2,000 years ago. Aren't you glad he didn't decide to take his time.
Most welcome! When I moved to Palisade and worked for a industrial supply company who lived off the coal mines. I went to the three mines near Paonia everyday with thousands of dollars of supplies. Longwall moves were amazing. On call 24/7. But anyway remember the stories of ExxonMobil sign of the double cross. You can Google it. Big pull out. Boom to bust for the Western Slope.
The CIC has used the phrase "drill baby drill" last two speeches. South Carolina and in NH.
What is coming is great for us in so many ways. Particularly ZNOG too I think.
We are leaving the ridiculous deception and lies needed to cover up true intentions behind fake science.
If you scratch the surface of the lies behind global this or that it is easy to get to the bottom of and reveal motivations.
Full and ultimate control of all and hoarding of all luxuries and privileges.
Irisky....so great to see you post the truth about God's oil.
Is it not amazing how when the truth hits you wonder how did I ever fall for even a second for that one? Dinosaurs....please.
It is embarrassing.
We are living in a time of "Showers of Blessings" if you love the light and truth.
I can say I never fell for " Sun bad" cancer causing. Never....no the sun block is bad, but not the sun.
Or global this or that or over population sustainability. Always knew it as what it is. Propaganda with an agenda.
The world is coming into a boom time after truth roll out. And short term we will profit from ZNOG I think.
But watch out for hidden technology right behind take down of the fraudsters.
Maybe sell high.
The News started putting out reports saying the the Midland Odessa Oil Fields were played out.
Same thing on the Eagle Ford Shale Fields.
Then we get a GREAT President in the White House and next thing you know we are a Petroleum EXPORTER !!!
And since we have quit drilling and pumping out of those wells.....they are filling back up again.

Oil is NOT FOSSIL FUEL ....

OIL replenishes itself
https://www.discovermagazine.com/environment/why-well-never-run-out-of-oil
What I want to know is ..... What happened to all the 3D Data we shot ? Is anybody using that to see what we have in hand ???
Bruce...I put those links in for you. And here's your sign
Hey J777S, thank you for sharing the interesting article. New developments occur in the oil patch frequently and it is difficult for someone to stay current. The trick for the future is to avoid spending more energy to discover/recover the oil/gas in a given new field than in energy provided by the field. The R.A.M.S. technology sounds like it is a step in that strategic direction.
In general, yes, when new technology comes along then re-entering a well can be very profitable and perhaps even less risk than drilling a wildcat well.
The R.A.M.S. article deals with "oil shale" which is shale rock containing kerogen that has not yet been converted to oil/gas.
Zion is likely not dealing with kerogen in "oil shale", but a tight "shale oil" formation that needs fracking. The order of the words "oil" and "Shale" determines the type of formation and hence the technique required to produce it.
I wish that company was current. I would buy a few.
I am quite familiar with the Western Slope having staked many uranium claims for Homestake Mining and others from Naturita to the Pitch Mine on Monarch Pass. Thanks for this info on the R.A.M.S. technology. Too bad the state of Colorado was taken over by tree huggers. I remember when it all started back in the early 70's the effort to shut down mining of all kinds. Now Biden has just created a million and half acres in Arizona as a National Park off limits to mining.. of which there is trillions of tons of yellow cake to be had from that area. The same silly fools are trying to do the same for mining in Israel. Long live BiBi.

How funny in Germany where the govt has now designated Nuclear energy as green! See what a hot summer can do and a cold winter where you cannot even burn wood to keep warm let alone buy coal or fuel oil. And now they are taking away gas stoves from those conspiracy nuts!! Let's hear it for Zion... get to crackin, drillin, doin sumpthin like cutting salaries by 2/3.
Well, in the fact they do not have commercial oil (yet) you are correct.
I enjoyed my conversations with him. I know he was not in good health so I hope he is OK.
Thing is, way back then it was a gamble just as it is now. Wildcating is a rough way to go.
However, Givot showed oil is there, of course Zn is not drilling in the Meged field, but there is a Meged field and that's the point.
If this company did not have that mission statement, a lot of the angst towards them would not be present. Then again, I probably would not have invested either.
Afek was there, and others but it is not the same.
Nathan - if your reading this. Hello and hope you are ok.
The thing about Nathan's posts are you could go back six years and repeat every single post he made and post them today, and they would be as accurate now as they were then.
Yep, I remember.
Accepted.
You know who.
For those that have been around a long time, remember Nathan?
At least he had class, hated the stock and company. Not sure if he was part of it.
So many are asking what the heck is Ryan talking about?
Ah, wouldn't I like to post it.
I guess some on the hoo will start on me again. I have big shoulders.
I highly doubt it
<< I suspect that the lease status is not a material event for an oil exploration company. So they are under no obligation to tell you, either how many times they have applied nor the status of those applications. >>
A material event for a stock is any event that is likely to have a significant impact on the value of the stock. As such, I would consider a renewal of a lease a material event, since it is a crucial event to the company.
Yes there are folks that want this company's death. They do not care what it costs.
Why? Well read the mission statement, use a little ingenuity and you can figure it out.
Some here already know...
Shalom.
I suspect that the lease status is not a material event for an oil exploration company. So they are under no obligation to tell you, either how many times they have applied nor the status of those applications. I suspect they will say nothing through the 3rd quarter of this year. (other than the lease is still under consideration). And by summer of 2024, lease status will still be in question. Can you imagine what the posters here will say?
"They must of struck a huge, massive amount of oil, for Israel to take that long to approve it".
Regarding re-entry and use of new methods.
I own a few shares of another penny stock that was working the western slope of Colorado and then 2008 finally affected the shale oil boom in western Colorado negatively as well.
The article relates some of the progress in processes.
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/frontier-energy-highlights-over-600-164500821.html
New Frontier Energy, Inc. (OTC:NFEI), exclusive licensor of Resonance And Micronization System (R.A.M.S.) technology, has reported a reduction in liabilities t...
I wonder specifically what they will be doing differently to bring about flow?
Any thoughts Kyoil or any one else?
Re-entry would be quicker than first time drilling?
How many here believe the new lease will be granted by the end of the 3rd quarter next month? I hope I’m wrong, but I do not.
Bias to destroy a company?
Wow, some folks have drank the Jim Jones juice.
Does this company have any revenue????
Does this "DRILLING" company even have a lease to drill, right now???
Has this company announced any layoffs, reduction in salaries, moving its office into a small office space with shared resources to cut costs?
Has this company diluted the hell out of the stock in order to beg people to give their hard earned money to all of the above?
THIS is not a startup company. It has a very, long track record of losing money to investors, right?
Remind me again, how someone's bias is destroying this company?
/sad
Nobody is slamming him. People just don't like the fact that he collects more than 4x the medium family income from a company all these years, that makes no money.
All while allegedly shaming those who don't believe in his vision that he believes came from god.
His answer is call out people for lack of faith and remind people that he has graciously spread his wealth. Like somehow giving people free shares at times justifies it all.
If I missed his email saying that he is no longer being paid by the company bleeding money, with oil lease and no active operations other than fundraising to pay for his salary and others, then please forgive me.
agree 100% JR..... and for what reason ??
it's crazy how some just want to destroy.
More like mad that they were silly for investing their hard earned money into such a POS stock that has a drilling rig collecting dust, management diluting stock and $$$ keeing their wealth train going, chosing to post so other people don't fall for the same BS.
It may all be perfectly legal. However, honest posters willing to challenge the sunshine pumpers and the false profit getting rich off this POS is a good thing in my opinion.
They might be making a little here and there but that is not the purpose.
Bias is to destroy the company. Ongoing for years now.
It's documented elsewhere. Interesting thing is my theory was confirmed at least to me with the transition to the OTC. It didn't stop.
Of course the company doesn't understand offense only defense.
One can win a Superbowl with a top3 defense, but they still have to put points on the scoreboard.
It was not directed at you, I think your just a very mad stockholder as many of us are.
Motives for others are money and an bias.
What do you think my real motive is?
Do you have some special insight to others motives or intentions?
I would be very interested in your judgment of my motives and intentions.
Question I have is the reverse, the are those here to post nothing but negatives. Why? For a 7 cent stock?
Motives, that's why.
I am around just tired of the censorship and daily posts about how ignorant those znog stockholders are.
I understand their game well.
So what's the point?
i have never advocated BUY.....at any time to any one.
And I don't give anyone advice on this Board.
I simply state what I am doing .... and what I believe in. Simple facts
Oh...and I back up my statements and beliefs with links
Do you think you are doing the same....not advising ....???
you like to twist the truth.....and that's ok....and your opinions.
And that's what you have (just like me) you have opinions.
yours are very entertaining...
have a great weekend.
The Promise is not to John Brown.
The Promise is to Israel.
We all know why you are here...to make a little money off the bounces.
I don't want to be around when God shows up in all of this....and asks "Who all gave false Testimony"?
You guys slam John Brown..... but God uses all kinds of People to shame some others.
This is true, that's all I hear from many of the "pushers" of the "buy, buy, buy" movement is empty drums.
With that being said, you'll not be alive at the time of discovery if they will ever discover commercial grade oil. I HIGHLY DOUBT they will discover commercial grade oil. There is no Biblical Promise to Zion Oil from God that they will discover commercial grade oil. John Brown and Zion's Board are definitely not Moses.

I seriously can't help but to wonder that there may be one or two on this board who are either "Zion Insiders" or indirectly connected to Zion. They keep pushing Zions claims as if they are always on the verge of discovering commercial grade oil but "oops, we missed it on that one by that much". This next well is going to get it and then next one never gets it BUT Zion continues to collect their paychecks.
Sad really. How that some keep believing Zion but won't believe the truth.
Such are the times.
Why Freed1776....whatever do you mean ?
I know....let's have a spelling contest.
Bruce, I have a theory, help me out here.
Looking at "Grammar and Writing Styles" .....
Are you and Freedom1776 the same person with 2 different iHub accounts???
One is the Puppet and the other the Ventriloquist.
I could be completely off base here....but it just seems that way to me.
To many similarities -- the way you springboard off of each other
my apologies if i am wrong.
just a thought.....
Bruce .....Did you see where CHAT GPT was being used for some type of Litigation and it was writing it's own cases to strengthen it's Subject Case ???
It adapts quickly.
CHAT has learned how to "LIE"...
JRyan.....we all wondered when you were coming back.
Don't worry about them.....Empty Drums make the most noise.
To 1776 and Bruce:
All due respect... it took Noah 120 years to build the Ark
https://arkencounter.com/blog/2011/11/18/how-long-for-noah-to-build-the-ark/
Now the Earth or anybody for that matter had not ever seen RAIN before the Flood.
https://www.genesispark.com/exhibits/early-earth/atmosphere/
Here's where the rub comes in. Noah started building the Ark 120 years BEFORE the Flood.
And he is building the Ark....for 120 years before the Earth has ever seen Rain.
How much faith does that take ??
2Cor 5:7
(notice I put those links in just for you guys)
And yet, ExxonMobil has how many in the land of Israel.
One does protest too much, that is obvious. The question is motive.
I almost bought more at 5 cents, but sticking to my guns for now. Don't worry lost on my other stock as well whereas I could have made some on Zn for that purchase.
Don't read as much anymore, it causes undo stress. Just patiently wait for Israel to decide what to do with Zn.
Have a great weekend everyone including you know who.
It's getting harder and harder to read this message board. The sheer idiocy of "believing" in a company who spends years and years wanting to drill just ONE commercial well and has more senior management and board members than EXXON does with over a million commercial wells, just blows the mind.
Oh that’s good 👍 you and J777S are on top of your game!
I am confused. Are you referring to one person in the wilderness, walking in circles or two people, one walking in circles and the other walking in the wilderness. I need clarification before I can give your conclusion(s) the consideration it/they deserve.
Jrcrash posted a screenshot from SH meeting of a board stating:
1 The rock properties from mj 0l are more likely to react favorably to the stimulation techniques.
2 The Crew was not permitted to stimulate mj 01 five years ago.
3 and I paraphrase 3...what they are going to do to stimulate, that method, did not exist 5 years ago....
So all the hand wringing is not necessary on both your parts.
We see and know what we choose to follow and invest in.
And there is ZERO chance Israel will not let them do it, grant new license. Zero
I know. Kind of like being one who is preoccupied with saying the same thing over and over with little to no effort to understand someone else's view of things and with general disdain for others.
Seems to be obsessive and obsessed with getting the last word in.
But what will be, will be, by the one whose will we serve if wise.
I question motives of the crowd pushing against choices people make and declaring it is obviously about those same people's well being. From what I see, there is nearly always something up with those messengers and in reality not about others health and well being but about the one declaring you must see and do as I tell you.
No, I do not have to do anything anyone tells me and I do not have to see things, see the world as I am told to by anyone but my creator.
The jig is up in general for the mother Theresa's and Oprah's of the world. We see behind the curtain.
This applies to so many life situations.
If I want to take all my money and hand it over to someone else's benefit what is that to you?
Thou doest protest too much.

ABOUT ZION OIL AND GAS COMPANY
Zion Oil & Gas is a U.S.-based corporation formed under Delaware law, exploring for oil and gas in Israel on licensed and permitted areas of approximately 99,000 acres located onshore between Tel Aviv and Haifa. Click on below link to find out more about Zion Oil & Gas.
COMPANY INFORMATION
In 1985, during a visit to Israel, John M. Brown (our founder and CEO) became inspired and dedicated to finding oil and gas in Israel, and he started the process that led to the Joseph Project. During the next fourteen years he made several trips each year to Israel, hired oil and gas consultants in Israel and Texas, met with Israeli government officials, made direct investments with local exploration companies, and assisted Israeli exploration companies in raising money for oil and gas exploration in Israel. This activity led Mr. Brown, together with others who had assisted him during those years, to form Zion Oil and Gas, Inc. in April 2000 in order to receive the award of a small onshore petroleum license from the Israeli government. Upon its formation, Mr. Brown and the others contributed to Zion all of the technical, economic, legal and financial data they had accumulated over the years relating to oil and gas exploration in Israel. We were reincorporated in Delaware on July 9, 2003. Though we have been around a long time, support for Israel, it is similar to the recent phenomena of social and ethical investing,where in crowd fundraising and otherwise people can choose investments which match their social & political, etc., outlook. To our knowledge those groups are not discriminatorily targeted because of their beliefs.

.
Nature of Operations as of November 2018
Zion Oil & Gas, Inc., a Delaware corporation is an oil and gas exploration company with a history of 18 years of oil & gas exploration in Israel. As of September 30, 2018, the Company has no revenues from its oil and gas operations.
Zion maintains its corporate headquarters in Dallas, Texas. We also have branch offices in Caesarea, Israel and Geneva, Switzerland. The purpose of the Israel branch is to support the Company’s operations in Israel, and the purpose of the Switzerland branch is to operate a foreign treasury center for the Company.
Exploration Rights/Exploration Activities
The Company currently holds one active petroleum exploration license onshore Israel, the Megiddo-Jezreel License, comprising approximately 99,000 acres. The Megiddo Jezreel #1 (“MJ #1”) site was completed in early March 2017, after which the drilling rig and associated equipment were mobilized to the site. Performance and endurance tests were completed, and the MJ #1 exploratory well was spud on June 5, 2017, ahead of the June 30, 2017 deadline under the then-existing license terms. The MJ #1 well has been drilled to a total depth (“TD”) of 5,060 meters (approximately 16,600 feet). Thereafter, the Company obtained three open-hole wireline log suites (including a formation image log) and the well was successfully cased and cemented. The Ministry of Energy approved the well testing protocol on April 29, 2018. Testing of the well is ongoing and the Company expects that testing will be concluded in the fourth quarter of 2018.
Depending on the final outcome and results of the current MJ #1 well and having adequate cash resources, multiple wells could be drilled from this pad site as several subsurface geologic targets are reachable using directional well trajectories.
Megiddo-Jezreel Petroleum License, No. 401 (“MJL”)
The MJL was awarded on December 3, 2013 for a three-year primary term through December 2, 2016, with the possibility of additional one-year extensions up to a maximum of seven years. The MJL lies onshore, south and west of the Sea of Galilee, and the Company continues its exploration focus here as it appears to possess the key geologic ingredients of an active petroleum system with significant exploration potential. In late November 2016, The State of Israel’s Petroleum Commissioner officially approved Zion’s drilling date and license extension request.
On October 30, 2017, the Company sought a multi-year extension to its existing license. After receiving feedback from Israel’s Petroleum Commissioner, the Company submitted a revised extension request on November 9, 2017. On November 20, 2017, Israel’s Petroleum Commissioner officially approved the Company’s multi-year extension request on its Megiddo-Jezreel License No. 401, extending its validity to December 2, 2019. Until recently, the Company remained subject to the following updated key license terms:
No. | Activity Description | Execution by: | ||
1 | Submit final report on the results of drilling | 31 May 2018 | ||
2 | Submit program for continuation of work under license | 30 June 2018 |
On June 1, 2018, Zion submitted its Megiddo-Jezreel #1 End of Well Report (EOWR) for the MJL, thus fulfilling our item No. 1 Final Report license work plan obligation, shown above.
On June 14, 2018 Zion submitted its Application for Extension of Continued Work Program Due Date on the Megiddo-Jezreel License No. 401 . The additional time was necessary because the Company had still not completed testing and evaluating all planned testing zones. On July 1, 2018, Israel’s Petroleum Commissioner granted Zion’s work program report extension to November 1, 2018, as shown below.
No. | Activity Description | Execution by: | ||
1 | Submit program for continuation of work under license | 1 November 2018 |
On October 23, 2018 Zion submitted its Application for Extension of Continued Work Program Due Date on the Megiddo-Jezreel License No. 401 . The additional time was necessary because the Company had still not completed testing and evaluating all planned testing zones. On October 28, 2018, Israel’s Petroleum Commissioner granted Zion’s work program report extension to January 31, 2019.

Notes from November 20, 2018 Operational Update:
Given the thermal gradient, flow rates, surface pressure and low salinity, certain ministries within the Israeli government have made requests of Zion concerning the use of the well as a water monitoring well. Zion will review the economic impact and obligations as a result of this request to determine a prudent plugging plan.
•Zone 4;
?1,784-1,775 meters flowed naturally and continuously to surface. The fluid characteristics obtained from monitoring samples taken while the well was flowing indicated low chloride water.
•Zone 5:
?1,232.5-1,228 meters flowed naturally and continuously to surface. The fluid characteristics obtained from monitoring samples taken while the well was flowing indicated low chloride water.

Zion Oil & Gas Purchases Drilling Rig for Israel Operations
Zion Oil & Gas, Inc. (Nasdaq: ZN) announces they (i) entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement on March 12, 2020, for a drilling rig, drill pipe, and related equipment for $5.6 million in cash, and (ii) closed that purchase on March 12, 2020, the same day, by Bill of Sale from the seller to Zion.
On March 13, 2020, Zion paid the seller $4.6 million in cash and remitted the remaining $1.0 million in cash to an escrow agent to be held pending completion of acceptance testing of the rig upon its arrival in Israel.
“This is a new era for Zion and a positive step forward for our 2020 exploration plans,” Zion’s COO, Robert Dunn said. “With our asset based in the State of Israel, our planning and flexibility will become more robust.”
“We believe this is the right time for this to happen,” stated Zion’s President, Bill Avery. “Having cash budgeted and available for the purchase of this rig shows the strong support of our shareholders and evidence of God’s faithfulness.”
The rig is a 1600 horsepower AC Top Drive equipped rig with a twin 1600 horsepower mud pump system with a depth capability of 20,000 ft. The rig will be equipped with almost 15,000 ft of heavy 5” drill pipe along with associated well control equipment and inventory.
Actual rig pictured above. Currently stacked awaiting shipment to Israel. 1600 horsepower AC Top Drive equipped rig capable of 20,000ft depth.
The rig underwent a full CAT III & IV certification in late 2017, reassuring the quality of the rig and ancillary equipment, and it has drilled two wells since certification.
The rig and equipment will be imported into Israel from Romania, where the Drilling Rig is currently stored.
The State of Israel has currently imposed travel restrictions relating to the Coronavirus outbreak, including a requirement that any person arriving in Israel, including the operating crew for the rig, will currently need to undergo a two-week quarantine.
In addition, the ports of entry into Israel through which the rig will need to enter, may be undergoing work disruptions on account of the virus outbreak. Accordingly, it is not possible at the present time to accurately estimate the time or resources that may be necessary to import the Drilling Rig onto the well site or any delay arising as a consequence of the outbreak.
Zion Oil & Gas, a public company traded on NASDAQ (ZN), explores for oil and gas onshore in Israel on their 99,000-acre Megiddo-Jezreel license area.

ZN MJ#1 well finds active petroleum system that is not commercially productive. 3-D seismic testing in progress.
Zion Oil and Gas, Inc., a Delaware corporation, which has an active petroleum exploration license onshore Israel, the Megiddo-Jezreel License (“MJL”), comprising approximately 99,000 acres, announces that it has completed the testing program of its primary zones located within the Jurassic and Cretaceous-age Formations of the Megiddo-Jezreel #1 (MJ #1) well. As a result of the testing, Zion has determined that the well is not commercially productive.
Given the thermal gradient, flow rates, surface pressure and low salinity, certain ministries within the Israeli government have made requests of Zion concerning the use of the well as a water monitoring well. Zion will review the economic impact and obligations as a result of this request to determine a prudent plugging plan.
