Risks and Uncertainties [Abstract]  
Going Concern

The Company’s financial statements have been prepared using the going concern assumption which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company has incurred substantial losses from operations and has negative cash flows from operating activities, which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company sustained a net loss for the nine months ended December 31, 2014 of $2,420,901 and has an accumulated deficit of $17,001,072 as of December 31, 2014. In addition, the Company estimates it will require approximately $150,000,000 in capital to commence principal operations.

 

The Company intends to continue its research and development efforts, but does not have any revenues in order to finance these activities internally. As a result, the Company intends to seek financing to fund its operations.

 

The Company has been able to meet its short-term needs primarily through loans from third parties, private placements of equity and debt securities, and deferring certain payment obligations to related parties.  The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $4,000,000 from the sale of Series A preferred stock units and has $912,513 of cash on hand as of December 31, 2014.  The Company plans to obtain additional financing through the sale of equity or debt securities in order to finance operations until it can generate positive cash flows from operating activities. The equity private placements are expected to provide the needed funds for continued operations and further research and development of the Company’s proprietary oil sands refining methods. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain the additional financing that it needs to develop its technology and alleviate doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. If the Company is able to obtain sufficient additional financing proceeds, the Company cannot be certain that this additional financing will be available on acceptable terms. To the extent the Company raises additional funds by issuing equity securities, the Company’s stockholders may experience significant dilution. Any debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants that impact the Company’s ability to conduct business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
