Unproved properties not subject to amortization includes unevaluated acreage of $4.1 and $6.0 million as of June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012, respectively, consisting of properties in the Mississippi Lime in Oklahoma. Our evaluation of impairment of unproved properties occurs, at a minimum, on a quarterly basis. For the year ended June 30, 2013, we transferred $4.1 million of Mississippi Lime property cost to the full cost pool as initial quantities of hydrocarbon production were indicative of impairment. During the corresponding prior year period, we transferred approximately $2.2 million of impaired assets, reflecting principally Woodford Shale properties, from our unevaluated pool to our full cost pool.

The following table provides a summary of costs that are not being amortized as of June 30, 2013, by the fiscal year in which the costs were incurred:

In early November 2012 the company sold its Wood well in the Giddings Field to EnerVest LLC and received net proceeds of $250,000 and the buyer's assumption of all abandonment liabilities.

On December 24, 2012, the Company closed the sale of a portion of its producing and non-producing properties and assets in Brazos, Burleson, Fayette, Lee and Grimes Counties, Texas to ASM Oil and Gas Company, Inc. ("ASM") for an adjusted purchase price of $2,804,976 and the buyer's assumption of all abandonment liabilities.

On June 14, 2013, the Company closed a second sale to ASM for producing and non-producing properties and assets in Brazos, Burleson, and Fayette Counties, Texas and received net proceeds of $425,000 and the buyer's assumption of all abandonment liabilities.

The proceeds from these sales were recognized as a reduction of the cost of oil and gas properties.
