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
only 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 second 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 delivered outstanding
economics, including a post-tax NPV8 of approximately US$1.4 billion using
industry expert Argus' price forecasts, and the spot price for granular MOP
fertiliser has since risen, further enhancing the valuations.
