Denver's own Denver-Julesburg basin, where oil is found at such relatively shallow depths (3,000 -6,500 ft.), is a driller's paradise. Sterling, Col., where British-American oil brought in the discovery well two years ago, has since jumped in population from 7,470 to more than 10,000, and 160 more producing wells have been brought...
