PASSPORT POTASH ENTERS INTO JOINT EXPLORATION AGREEMENT WITH HNZ POTASH LLC
Passport Potash Inc. has entered into an agreement with HNZ Potash LLC to jointly explore and potentially develop 21 permitted parcels in which Passport holds Arizona State Land Department exploration permits and which are located on the southernmost area of its landholdings. The permit property is within HNZ's private property and has not been previously explored by Passport. Under the terms of the joint exploration agreement HNZ has agreed to pay Passport 50 per cent of certain costs previously incurred by Passport with respect to the permit property, and Passport will assign a 50-per-cent interest in the permit property to HNZ.
The purposes of the agreement are to conduct exploration and to evaluate the potential for development and mining of the permit property. If justified by the exploration activities, the parties upon mutual agreement will form an entity to seek a mining lease to jointly engage in development and mining of the permit property. During the currency of the agreement the parties will equally share the costs for maintaining the permit property in good standing with the land department. The parties may, either alone or jointly, conduct exploration of any or all of the permit property pursuant to one or more plans of exploration.
Other provisions in the agreement include the following:
-
The parties will provide to each other existing exploration data from
their Holbrook basin potash exploration activities. The data provided by
each party may be used by the other party to update its existing or
future resource reports or any other future reports.
- The parties will provide each other vehicular access across existing
paved and unpaved roads on property controlled by the party.
- The parties have established an area of mutual interest and have agreed
to jointly pursue opportunities within this area.
"We look forward to the opportunity to jointly explore these properties with HNZ Potash," commented Joshua Bleak, Passport's president and chief executive officer. "We anticipate a long and productive relationship with HNZ and see this as a positive step for both companies and the development of potash resources in the Holbrook basin."
We seek Safe Harbor.
