Subject: RE: American Potash Corp. (the "Company") - Dissemination of News Release [BJ-WSLegal.FID4411134] Word Document File: '\\swfile\EmailIn\20240130 124226 Attachment January 30, 2024 - Resignation of Jon George.DOCX' - 2 - 1100-1199 West Hastings St. Vancouver, BC Canada V6E 3T5 T 604 803 5838 E deanb@americanpotash.com CSE-KCL americanpotash.com American Potash Announces Management Transition NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION OR DISSEMINATION INTO THE UNITED STATES OR THROUGH U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES Vancouver, B.C., January 30th, 2024. American Potash Corp. KCL-CSE ("American Potash" or the "Company") announces that Mr. Jonathan George has stepped down as President and Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") of the Company. Mr. Dean Besserer, a director of the Company, has therefore been appointed as interim President and CEO. Mr. Besserer has more than two decades of mineral exploration experience working in over 50 countries, leading projects with annual exploration budgets exceeding US$20 million. He has served as Vice-President and Partner at APEX Geoscience Ltd., a consulting firm with offices in Canada, South America and Australia, and as a Director of Brilliant Mining, Niblack Resources and Sentosa Mining. Mr. Besserer also served as the Vice-President of Exploration of numerous junior mining companies and is a Professional Geologist and a "Qualified Person" as defined in National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101"). With this change in management, the Company will be renewing its efforts to explore its Green River Potash and Lithium Project within the Paradox Basin, Utah. The Paradox Basin contains large aquifers of brines containing concentrated lithium, bromine and boron. Neighboring Anson Resources has a large lithium resource of 1.5m tonnes of lithium (LCE)* and a lithium exploration target of 2-2.6B tonnes of lithium brines bordering American Potash's project (see Ansonresources.com). The Basin also contains a proven productive potash horizon, known as Cycle 5, that has been mined since 1963. Cycle 5 and recently Cycle 9 host the nearby, long-producing and currently-active Moab solar solution mine, operated by Intrepid Potash (NYSE-IPI- ~ $20) the largest potash producer in the U.S (see Intrepidpotash.com). This same stratigraphic horizon extends to American Potash's Project, where an Exploration Target from 600 million to 1 billion tonnes of sylvinite, with an average grade ranging from 19% to 29% KCL, has been estimated in a NI-43-101 compliant technical report prepared by Agapito Associates Inc. (October 2012). Kent Ausburn, PhD, PGeo., a qualified person within the meaning of NI-43-101 has reviewed and is responsible for the technical details of this press release. On behalf of the Company Dean Besserer, P.Geo., President & CEO For further information, please visit the Company's website at www.americanpotash.com or contact Mr. Dean Besserer by email at deanb@americanpotash.com . ** Disclaimer: JORC defined mineral resource estimates are typically similar to but not necessarily equivalent to NI-43-101 defined mineral resource estimates and there is no guarantee similar resources exist on the Company's project. ** The Potash Exploration Targets are not being reported as part of any Mineral Resource or Mineral Reserve. The Agapito Report quantifies the Project's potash exploration potential in the form of a NI 43-101 Exploration Target. The Exploration Target estimate was prepared in accordance to the NI 43-101 guidelines of the Canadian securities regulators. It should be noted that Exploration Targets are conceptual in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define them as Mineral Resources, and, while reasonable potential may exist, it is uncertain whether further exploration will result in the determination of a Mineral Resource under NI 43-101. The Exploration Target stated in the Agapito Report is not being reported as part of any Mineral Resource or Mineral Reserve.
