the north coast of Camaguey Province, Cuba.
The activity began between It consists
of construction of a base camp containing an earth pier 225 by 25 feet,
6 tents, 1 building, 3 shothole drilling rigs, and 3 cargo trucks located
at UTM coordinates 017711, AMS Map Sheet 4582 I. A shothole drilling rig
is active at UTM coordinates 994689, AMS Map Sheet 4582 I, and a pattern
of 5 expended shotholes is visible at UTM coordinates 045641, AMS Map
Sheet 4582 I. Seismic exploration lines have been cleared between the
following UTM coordinates on AMS Map Sheet 4582 I: 967715 to 054632,
998679 to 014706, 009660 to 028684, 030654 to 041671, and 023677 to
036663.

exploration along the north coast of Cuba, and is evidence of the continuing
search for commercial petroleum deposits by the Cuban government.
