MEDIA ADVISORY, Aug. 31 /Christian Newswire/ -- In the midst of the stock market's darkest days since the Great Depression, Zion Oil & Gas, Inc., (www.zionoil.com) with offices in Dallas, Texas, and Caesarea, Israel, is not only defying the odds on Wall Street, they're making history in the Holy Land. Zion Oil & Gas, holding exploration licenses and permits covering approximately 327,000 acres, explores for oil and gas in Israel using a combination of faith and science as its guide. Zion's second well, the Ma'anit-Rehoboth #2 is nearing its target depth of 18,040 feet, potentially in Israel's Permian strata, and as they drill, not only has Zion's stock held its value, the Company's recent $21 million rights offering was oversubscribed.

To help answer the market's clear interest in their mission, Zion Oil & Gas, Inc., will move from the NYSE Amex exchange to the electronic NASDAQ Global Market and 'ring the bell' in New York on September 2nd to open the market.
