Lithium Exploration Group (OTCBB: LEXG) shares improved 16% Wednesday to $5.88, after announcing it had reached an exclusivity agreement with Glottech USA for the utilization of its patented ultrasonic generator for mineral extraction. Volume for the stock was 4.7 million shares.

The exclusivity terms grant Lithium Exploration Group rights to use of the technology in the Swan Hills region of Alberta. The region outlined in the agreement encompasses more than 12,000 square kilometers and overlays all of the aquifers reported to contain high levels of lithium in a 1995 Alberta Geological Survey study. The terms of the agreement also give Lithium Exploration Group the ability to expand the exclusivity agreement for mineral processing purposes throughout Canada.

“This technology has many applications in Lithium Exploration Group’s long-term plan,” said CEO Alex Walsh. “It is going to help us bring the Valleyview Project to near-term production, but it is also going to give us the ability to leverage acquisitions and could result in significant revenue to the company through licensing arrangements to third parties.”

Lithium Exploration Group, based in Scottsdale, Arizona, is an exploration and development company focused on the acquisition and development potential of lithium brines and other precious metals that demonstrate high probability for near-term production. Currently, the company is focused on its Western Canada and South America properties.

About Penny Stocks

The term "penny stocks," also known as micro-cap equities, micro caps, small caps, pink sheets, refers to shares in a company that trades for less than $5.00. Most penny stocks trade on the OTCBB market and the pink sheet electronic quotation service. Penny Stocks can be very volatile and can see gains as much as 500% in a day. Volatility in penny stocks is also dangerous because penny stocks can come down as quickly as they go up. If you trade penny stocks based on stock picks, make sure to always do your due diligence on the companies you're considering, use stop loss orders, and book your profits when you are in a position to do so.
