SASKATOON, Saskatchewan & LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--December 1, 2022--
Gensource Potash Corporation (“Gensource” or the “Company”) (AIM/TSXV: GSP), a
fertilizer development company focused on sustainable potash production, is pleased to
announce a proposed best efforts, non-brokered private placement for gross proceeds of up to
$6,000,000.00 (the “Offering”).
The Offering will consist of: (i) up to 20,000,000 units of the Company (“Unit”) at a price of
$0.15 per Unit for gross proceeds of up to $3,000,000; and (ii) up to 15,000,000 common shares
of the Company that are “flow-through shares” as defined in subsection 66(15) of the Income
Tax Act (Canada) (each a “Flow Through Share”) at a price of $0.20 per Flow Through Share
for gross proceeds of up to $3,000,000.
Each Unit shall consist of one common share in the capital stock of the Company (a “Common
Share”) and one Common Share purchase warrant of the Company (a “Warrant”). Each
Warrant will be exercisable for one Common Share (a “Warrant Share”) at an exercise price of
$0.30 per Warrant Share for a period of 24 months following the date of issuance.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the Units to advance the Tugaske
Project, specifically to continue with detailed engineering and procurement activities, complete
well pad leasing and drilling planning and to obtain pipeline rights of way, to complete the
financing process of the project, and for general working capital purposes. Use of proceeds from
the sale of Flow Through Shares will be used to further expand resource definition on KL244
and KL245 and to initiate resource definition work on SMP200, all with an aim of developing a
second project within the Vanguard Area.
The Offering will take place by way of a private placement to qualified investors in such
provinces of Canada as the Company may designate, and otherwise in those jurisdictions where
the Offering can lawfully be made. The securities to be issued pursuant to the Offering will be
subject to a statutory four month and one day hold period from the date of issuance.
The offering is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including receipt of all applicable
regulatory approvals, including that of the TSX Venture Exchange.
A further update on the Offering will be made as and when appropriate.

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 responsibility for the
adequacy or accuracy of this release.
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 complete 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.
