LEXG to Acquire Alberta Water Disposal Facility to Ramp Up Lithium Extraction Activities: Adds Potential $200K to Top-line Growth

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., May 8, 2013

"We are an exploration company invested in the exploration of lithium-bearing brines in Alberta.  The acquisition of oil and gas assets, along with this disposal facility, will bring us revenue and infrastructure to continue our exploration efforts, at the same time providing income to pay for those expenditures." said Alex Walsh, CEO.  "In my opinion, there are very few junior mining companies with the ability to fund both operations and exploration efforts through company revenue without dilutive financings.  For this reason I'm really pleased to be able deliver this alternative to our shareholders and investors."

The Company and its attorneys are expeditiously completing all due diligence with the expectation of closing by corporate year-end June 30, 2013. Details of all of the transactions announced in previous weeks will be disclosed in 8K filings upon completion.
