TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - April 23, 2015) - MCW Energy Group Limited ("MCW") (TSX VENTURE:MCW)(OTCQX:MCWEF), a Canadian holding company involved in the creation of oil sands extraction technology, through MCW Oil Sands Recovery, LLC, announces the closing by its indirect wholly owned subsidiary, MCW Fuels, LLC (formerly MCW Fuels, Inc.)

MCW received shareholder approval for the disposition on March 6, 2015 with 99.97% of votes casted voting in favour of the disposition.

The initial purchase price of US$5,000,000 was directed to be paid to certain third parties to settle certain liabilities owed by MCW Fuels to two major fuel suppliers.
