About Gensource
Gensource is a fertilizer development company based in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan
and is on track to become the next fertilizer production company in that
province. With a modular and environmentally leading approach to potash
production, Gensource believes its technical and business model will be the
future of the industry. Gensource operates under a business plan that has two
key components: (1) vertical integration with the market to ensure that all
production capacity built is directed, and pre-sold, to a specific market,
eliminating market-side risk; and (2) technical innovation which will allow
for a modular and economic potash production facility, that demonstrates
environmental leadership within the industry, producing no salt tailings,
therefore eliminating decommissioning risk, and requiring no surface brine
ponds, thereby removing the single largest and negative environmental aspect
of potash mining.
Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that
term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts

Caution Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This news release may contain forward looking information and Gensource
cautions readers that forward- looking information is based on certain
assumptions and risk factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from the expectations of Gensource included in this news release.
This news release includes certain "forward-looking statements", which often,
but not always, can be identified by the use of words such as "believes",
"anticipates", "expects", "estimates", "may", "could", "would", "will", or
"plan". These statements are based on information currently available to
Gensource and Gensource provides no assurance that actual results will meet
management's expectations.
Forward looking statements include estimates and statements with respect to
Gensource's future plans, objectives or goals, to the effect that Gensource or
management expects a stated condition or result to occur, including any
offering of securities by Gensource. Since forward-looking statements are
based on assumptions and address future events and conditions, by their very
nature they involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Actual results could
differ materially from those currently anticipated in such statements for many
reasons such as: failure to receive final approval of the TSXV for the
Offering; failure to finance the Tugaske Project or other projects on terms
which are economic or at all; failure to settle a definitive joint venture
agreement with a party and advance and finance the Tugaske Project; changes in
general economic conditions and conditions in the financial markets; the
ability to find and source off-take agreements; changes in demand and prices
for potash; litigation, legislative, environmental and other judicial,
regulatory, political and competitive developments; technological and
operational difficulties encountered in connection with Gensource's
activities; an inability to predict and counteract the effects of COVID-19 on
the business of Gensource, including but not limited to the effects of
COVID-19 on the price of commodities, capital market conditions, restriction
on labour and international travel and supply chains, failure to obtain
required regulatory approvals; and other matters discussed in this news
release and in filings made with securities regulators. This list is not
exhaustive of the factors that may affect any of Gensource's forward-looking
statements. These and other factors should be considered carefully, and
readers should not place undue reliance on Gensource's forward-looking
statements. Gensource does not undertake to update any forward-looking
statement that may be made from time to time by Gensource or on its behalf,
except in accordance with applicable securities laws.
