LEXG Lithium Exploration Group Develops Cornerstone Solution For Small Cap Lithium Market Boom Anticipated By Credit Suisse

Phoenix, AZ - January 4, 2017 - InvestorsHub NewsWire - Lithium Exploration Group Inc. (LEXG) today announced plans to deploy a proprietary technology solution expected to substantially improve the internal rate of return (IRR) and margins of lithium harvesting operations. The capital expenditures (CAPEX) to harvest lithium brines are exponentially less than the CAPEX required to mine lithium from hard rock. The time from exploration to the delivery of usable lithium is substantially shorter when harvesting lithium from brine than when mining lithium from hard rock. The earths supply of lithium is vast, but not conveniently contained within concise geographical confines. Credit Suisse has published research that suggests multiple small lithium brine harvesting operations may present a CAPEX and return on investment (ROI) scenario more attractive to investors than large scale mining operations:

"Lithium brine deposits typically outperform hard rock and clay lithium sources on cost, sustainability and permitting. This gap is becoming more pronounced when we take into account technological advancements in brine processing....even though lithium is relatively abundant, it's the 33rd most common element its very diffuse throughout nature, meaning that collecting and concentrating it is a very difficult task." 

Tomorrow, January 5, 2017, LEXG will release on online presentation, available on demand, providing a detailed overview on the Companys development of a proprietary technology solution to dramatically improve lithium harvesting operational efficiencies by both reducing harvesting time frames and improving extracted lithium purity.

The foundation of LEXGs proprietary technology solution is built on the Companys experience with triggering a hyper-purification phenomenon from the application of mechanical ultrasound to induce controlled cavitation. The controlled cavitation technology, developed by LEXGs partner, Sonic Cavitation Ltd., has been tested in the purification of oil field wastewater. The technology can also separate lithium from brine. LEXG is now engaged with Sonic Cavitation to refine the application of the cavitation technology specifically for the lithium industry.

LEXG is also actively negotiating the acquisition of additional related lithium refinement technologies to augment the cavitation technology. The presentation to be published tomorrow, January 5, 2017 will highlight LEXGs strategy to create a unique ROI opportunity for its shareholders by offering a cornerstone technology solution especially valuable to the Credit Suisse anticipated proliferation of small-cap lithium brine harvesting companies.
