Notes to Editors

Emmerson is focused on advancing the Khemisset project ("Khemisset" or the
"Project") in Morocco into a low cost, high margin supplier of potash, and the
first primary producer on the African continent. With an initial 19-year life
of mine, the development of Khemisset is expected to deliver long-term
investment and financial contributions to Morocco including the creation of
permanent employment, taxation, and a plethora of ancillary benefits. As a
UK-Moroccan partnership, the Company is committed to bringing in significant
international investment over the life of the mine.

Morocco is widely recognised as one of the leading phosphate producers
globally, ranking third in the world in terms of tonnes produced annually, and
the development of this mine is set to consolidate its position as the most
important fertiliser producer in Africa. The Project has a large JORC Resource
Estimate (2012) of 537Mt @ 9.24% K2O, with significant exploration potential,
and is perfectly located to support the expected growth of African fertiliser
consumption whilst also being located on the doorstep of European markets. The
need to feed the world's rapidly increasing population is driving demand for
potash and Khemisset is well placed to benefit from the opportunities this
presents. The Feasibility Study released in June 2020 indicated the Project
has the potential to be among the lowest capital cost development stage potash
projects in the world and also, as a result of its location, one of the
highest margin projects. This 2020 Feasibility Study delivered compelling
economics, including a post-tax NPV8 of approximately US$1.4 billion.
