SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., June 12, 2013 /PRNewswire/ — Lithium Exploration Group Inc. (OTCQB: LEXG) announces that yesterday it executed a binding agreement to acquire Blue Tap, Inc., an entity that has consolidated the disposal facility and assets of Excel Valley Petroleum. Lithium Exploration Group entered into an LOI with Excel Valley Petroleum in May to perform due diligence on the assets and explore an opportunity to acquire a controlling interest in the disposal facility. Details of the transaction will be filed in Form 8K at www.sec.gov. The existing management will retain a portion of the equity and will be responsible for day to day operation of the disposal facility. The facility is ready to accept salt water disposal today and has a Class 1A waste designation which will require some additional infrastructure before it becomes active. The investment from Lithium Exploration Group will bring the facility to active Class 1A status and drive significantly higher revenue and profit to the operation.

“We are excited to move into the waste disposal business. It has many synergies with our existing efforts in mineral exploration and technology development. This is a great asset and we have a very knowledgeable and experienced management team to partner with. We will all be meeting next week in Calgary to build our FY2014 projections and execution strategy for the coming months,” commented CEO Alex Walsh. “We are still exploring other opportunities that complement our activity in the mining, oil and gas, and technology industries.”
