Platina Energy Group Reports Over $500 Million in Reserves

DALLAS, TX–(EMWNews – July 15, 2008) – Platina Energy Group, Inc. (OTCBB: PLTG)

(FRANKFURT: O5Y) releases independent reserve report data quantifying its

holdings in Kentucky and Tennessee for net oil and gas reserves. According

to the report, the specific net recoverable quantities are 1.85 million

barrels of oil and 24BCF of natural gas. At present pricing, this

represents a value well in excess of $500,000,000.00.

“This is probably the most significant news that the Company has ever

released. Although we have other reserve report estimates on other fields

that total another $100 or more million, this particular report is

extremely conservative based on what we are recovering on the Kentucky

field at the moment. We think that the actual reserves could be much

higher, but it is too early to tell,” stated Blair Merriam, President of

Platina Energy Group.

Production in Kentucky continues to rise at a rapid rate as a result of the

recent drilling activity.
