Oil Seekers More Hopeful at Arden Anticline Prospect

James H. Down and Commonwealth Oil Co revived hopes after a decade of prospecting near Las Vegas. A 1440 foot drill depth, a broken cable and new 60 foot concrete fill delayed progress, now a 96 foot derrick stands tall as two more crews prepare for 24 hour drilling. The Arden Anticline shows a dome structure over Pennsylvanian limestone, with erosion lowering upper formations by about 2000 feet, guiding geologists toward a verdict on the field.
