ASX ANNOUNCEMENT

6 February 2023

 

LEADING EIA AND PERMIT CONSULTANT APPOINTED

South Harz Potash Limited (ASX:SHP) (South Harz or the Company) is pleased to
announce that it has appointed ERM Consultants as both the Environmental
Impact Assessment (EIA) consultant and Spatial Planning Permitting consultant
for its 100%-owned Ohmgebirge Development in Thuringia, Germany.

The EIA is a key part of the permitting process for the Ohmgebirge mine and
potash plant and integral to the Feasibility Study. The EIA baseline studies
are set to commence immediately.

As a first step, the spatial planning procedure is essential to securing
approval and general permission for the design of surface infrastructure. This
then paves the way for the subsequent approval procedure of the main operating
plan. The current Thuringian regional plan already declares potash mining in
the Ohmgebirge region to be a generally reserved priority.

ERM is a leading global provider of environmental, health, safety, risk,
social consulting, and sustainability related services. It has more than 7,000
people in over 38 countries and territories working out of 134 offices. ERM
established its German Frankfurt office in 1989 and now employs over 230
people in Germany, with deep knowledge sector specialization in chemical,
pharmaceutical, power, manufacturing, mining and finance.

South Harz Managing Director, Luis da Silva, commented:

"We are pleased to be working with ERM and to have such an experienced team
partnering with the Company for this significant work. The German-speaking
team at ERM's Frankfurt office will be able to liaise directly with the
authorities and will support our Regional Director, Dr Babette Winter, in
navigating the permitting process for our flagship Ohmgebirge Development."

This ASX release has been approved by Managing Director, Luis da Silva.
