TEX.A Texalta Petroleum Ltd.

Texalta Petroleum Ltd. ("Texalta") (TSX VENTURE:TEX.A) is pleased to announce
that it is awaiting approval from Saskatchewan Energy and Resources to commence
its third horizontal development well at Wordsworth, Saskatchewan. This well has
been delayed for several months due to the need to obtain the consents of a
multiplicity of parties for a Lessor Production Allocation Agreement, which has
now been fully executed and received. It is anticipated that the well will
commence on or about August 21, 2009 and take approximately twelve days to drill
to depth.


Following the completion of this well Texalta plans to drill an additional
horizontal well to the east of the proposed August 21, 2009 development well.
This well has a simple land component and arrangements should be in place to
commence drilling prior to October 1, 2009.


The Wordsworth pool can potentially accommodate an additional 8 wells in which
Texalta as operator holds a 47.5 percent working interest. Texalta has nearly
completed work on conversion of the 3B9-23/4A10-23-7-3W2 well to a disposal
facility and is installing a flowline from its 2A2-23-7-3-W2 Battery to the new
disposal well that will significantly reduce monthly operating costs for
trucking to outside facilities.


The Company is also pleased to inform shareholders that it has increased its
average working interest in the West Queensdale, Saskatchewan area by
approximately 10 percent by virtue of a Purchase and Sale Agreement effective
August 1, 2009.


Evaluation of the vertical wildcat well at 4-31-6-1 W2M in the Wildwood area,
Saskatchewan has been completed. The Second White Specs zone from 650 meters to
703 meters in this well is gas charged. The well is presently suspended as a
possible Second White Specs gas completion depending on an improvement in local
gas prices. Texalta and partners currently sell associated gas at West
Queensdale at a discount to Alberta export price.


In Australia, shooting of 224 km of 2D seismic has been completed and plans for
phase two of the seismic program are being organized. The Company is encouraged
by the results of the first phase of seismic. Phase two will focus on areas of
interest defined during phase one and will involve a much larger area of 350 km
or more. Industry interest and investment in the oil and gas potential of
Northern Territory basins continues to increase. The entire permit area is in
excess of 5.5 million acres and Northern Territory Government researchers have
estimated that individual trapping situations in the Georgina Basin may contain
oil and gas reserves well in excess of 100 million barrels.


The Company has cash on hand to carry out its current drilling plans, generates
cash flow from approximately 175 boe per day of production (average cost of
production is $12 / bbl) and has no debt.


TEX.A is a Calgary based company engaged in the exploration, acquisition and
development of prospective oil & gas properties in Saskatchewan and Alberta,
Canada. The company's wholly owned subsidiary, Texalta Australia Pty. Ltd. holds
82 percent working interest in two exploration permits covering in excess of 5.5
million acres of prospective land in the Georgina Basin, Northern Territory,
Australia.


Note: BOEs may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A BOE
conversion ratio of 6 Mcf: 1bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversion
method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value
equivalency at the wellhead.
