Lux Energy Updates Operations at its West Central Alberta Project

CALGARY, May 17 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - Lux Energy Corp. (OTC BB: LUXE), an oil and gas production and exploration company, today reported that the Operator of the Barrhead oil discovery in West Central Alberta has reached a significant milestone. Lux Energy has a working interest in this project.

After initially producing natural gas, the 7-30 (or "C") well began flowing oil after several weeks and pumping equipment was installed in November 2009. The well has now produced more than 10,000 barrels of oil equivalent since production commenced in mid-July 2009. This prospect has 3-D proprietary control.

The Operator has identified two additional locations, one of which is now surveyed. The first location will test a separate 3-D anomaly, while the second location will offset the oil discovery.

Lux Energy Corp. is an oil and gas production and exploration company focusing on developing oil and gas resources in North America. Further information and news releases are available at www.luxenergycorp.com.
