Enertopia Announces Light Oil Project Update

VANCOUVER, BC – July 31, 2013 - Enertopia Corporation (ENRT-OTCBB) (TOP-CNSX) (the "Company" or "Enertopia") announces that the Company has been notified by the vendor of the Pennsylvania oil property, that three more oil wells have been successfully drilled, completed and are being prepared for production with the fourth well currently being drilled. The Company has no direct interest in these 4 wells, but does have an option to participate in up to 100 light oil wells on the same lands.

The Company has also learned that the vendor will drill a further nine wells over the next several weeks as development continues on this low risk, light oil opportunity.

Well log’s for one of the wells has been posted to the Enertopia oil project page http://www.enertopia.com/s/pennoil.asp. This well log shows that all four sand horizons were intersected.

Enertopia has signed a Letter of Intent to participate in up to 100, high-netback, light-oil-producing wells in Pennsylvania.

The light oil assets include a number of original oil-in-place pools in NW Pennsylvania discovered and developed in the 1960’s and 1970’s by Quaker State Oil. The vendor has now drilled and completed 41 infill well locations with a 100% success rate: all 41 of the wells drilled were completed and outfitted for commercial oil production. Each shallow oil well can have up to four separate producing sand intervals.

Robert McAllister, President, stated: "While Enertopia has no ownership interest in these latest wells, the historic and current drilling show this to be a project of considerable merit and gives our company the ability to grow dramatically through the drill bit.”

Enertopia management expects the field development will provide the essential elements required to support a growth based business model:

• Capital to maintain production – then grow production through the drilling of additional wells- is expected to be provided through future oil revenues after initial capex is utilized;
• Vendor-reported expected light oil production netbacks of approximately $55 per barrel of oil should place the performance of these operations in the top 10% of all North American fields;
• Significant development inventory with undrilled well locations in NW Pennsylvania in addition to the scope of the current Letter of Intent.

The Pennsylvania light oil project provides the opportunity for a potential step change in value for shareholders through the low risk development of 100 drill locations, without the pipeline and transportation issues affecting many producers situated in less advantaged locations today; while receiving WTI-based pricing. All the wells are targeting known historic oil producing areas.

Enertopia plans to drill its first development wells within 30 days of closing the underlying Area of Mutual Interest Agreement and necessary financing.

Enertopia is positioning to execute a successful growth model with predictable well drilling results combined with a significant development inventory.
