PHOENIX, April 12, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Via OTC PR Wire – Lithium Exploration Group (USOTC:LEXG) is already
seeing an immediate and direct benefit from the recent spike in oil and gas prices for multiple reasons.
- The company has a royalty interest in the future development of a significant oil and gas opportunity in Louisiana,
and the spike in oil and gas prices has a direct impact on the projections of future cash flow streams from the investment made
in May of 2017.
- The company has been incubating
a blockchain concept that will make it substantially easier and more transparent for investors who are not part of the oil
and gas ecosystem to participate in investment opportunities. Providing greater transparency and access to outsiders is
paramount to the business, but rising oil prices will be the main driver of interest as we attempt to proliferate the Black Box
Blockchain.
- The company still has interest in a Pennsylvania oil and gas project, which had stalled in 2017 but is believed to be close
to getting financed. This will provide an opportunity to recoup that investment and improve the company’s balance
sheet.
“The Louisiana oil project is our primary focus today because it is in the final closing stages and is a huge part of our plan
to pay down debt and eliminate our need for outside financing. Unfortunately, I cannot release projected numbers of the
potential cash distributions to the public until the development begins. I will say that the spreadsheets I am looking at
from my desk show the ability to fully fund the company operations for a decade and retire all of our outstanding liabilities at
$60 oil and anything above that is found money,” commented CEO Alex Walsh. “In the past few days I have had a number of
inbound calls from folks in the oil and gas industry asking how they could potentially partner with Black Box Energy on other
projects going forward because they see the immense value in the royalty stream that could come into our public company. Each
of our business units has such an exciting future. The near-term and long-term potential is immense and I’m happy to be able
to bring this news to our long-time shareholders and the rest of the public.”
