VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Dec 10, 2013) - Petrichor Energy Inc. (TSX-VENTURE:PTP)(FRANKFURT:YQN) (the "Company") announces that the drilling of the Hinson #1 well has reached a depth of 4,452 feet (1,357 meters). The Hinson #1 will be drilled to a vertical depth of approximately 5,200 feet (1,585 meters) to test the Caddo Lime, Marble Falls, Barnett shale and Mississippi Lime formations.

As previously announced, the Hinson #1 is the first of three test wells to be drilled on the Marble Falls Prospect (the "Prospect"), and is located in Young County, Texas, within the approximate surface coordinates of -98.6644182 Longitude and 33.3508939 Latitude.
