Reminder of forthcoming LEXG advancements, per February's 10Q

Pursuant to the license agreement, we have obtained the exclusive right to use the mechanical ultrasound technology within the field of non-petro-chemical mining within the territory of Canada. We may also sublicense our rights under the license in respect of one or more units of the technology to any entity operating within the field of use in which we own or beneficially own at least a 20% equity interest. GD Glottech International has agreed to supply us with up to 5 technology units per 12-month period from the effective date of the license term, which will start from the month of delivery of the unit of the technology. The first unit of the technology provided under the license will be provided at no additional cost to us and subsequent units shall be subject to a fee based on the then current retail price of the units. If we sublicense any of our rights, the term of the applicable license will be for 5 years from the date the applicable unit is delivered. Pursuant to the license agreement, GD Glottech International shall provide ongoing technical assistance and training in respect of our use of the technology at our cost.

In consideration of the license, we will pay to GD Glottech International a royalty based on the tonnage of water produced by our use of the technology in accordance with the agreement. A minimum annual royalty will be applicable. The term of the license agreement shall be for an initial period of 5 years and shall be renewable for additional terms of 5 years provided that we satisfy the minimum royalty requirements during each period.

GD Glottech International’s technology is designed to separate suspended solids from water (brine), which is one step in the process that we are taking to produce commercially viable minerals. The technology produces extremely high temperatures, which destroy organic substances such as bacteria and other toxic agents. We believe that GD Glottech International's technology can provide lower costs of operation as well as reduced time for site clean-up than traditional methods of water treatment. We anticipate using this application to extract dissolved solids like lithium, potassium, and magnesium from oil field brine. The disposal of produced water (brine) from oil and gas production in Alberta is a significant environmental issue for the province and presents a considerable economic issue for producers. We intend to use the technology on our Valleyview Property in Alberta, in cooperation with oil and gas producers, to treat and dispose of their produced water while monetizing the minerals that are contained within that produced water stream that is being brought to the surface during the oil and gas production process. As we own the MAIM (Metals and Industrial Minerals) claims to the minerals on the Valleyview Property, the minerals contained in their produced water stream fall under our rights. While we have had discussions with oil and gas consultants and oil operators regarding their difficulties in treating the brine at some of their fields, we have no formal agreements in place.

The technical process is based on the use of mechanical ultrasound generated through the production of a series of cavitations. Mechanical ultrasound is a machine-produced sound of a frequency above the upper limit of the normal range of human hearing. Cavitations are the rapid formation and collapse of bubbles in liquids, caused by the movement of something such as a propeller or by waves of high-frequency sound. The production of mechanical ultrasound allows GD Glottech International’s technology to distill the fluid stock. Using mechanical ultrasound for distillation has been attempted before, but the external energy requirement needed to produce the mechanical ultrasound was far too expensive to make it commercially viable. GD Glottech International’s technology uses the energy released during the cavitations in order to make it commercially viable from an economic perspective. During these cavitations, a millisecond of energy is released. During this release, temperatures can reach 5,000 degrees centigrade.
