3. Pacific Potash Corporation
FSE: P9P
Pacific Potash Corporation (“The Company”) is a TSX-‐V (PP) listed junior resource mining company based in
Vancouver, British Columbia. The company holds and is actively exploring two Potash properties:
• the Provost Potash Property (PPP) encompasses 43,938 acres, within east-‐central, Alberta and is held
100% by the company; and
• the 50:50 Property is held jointly with Grizzly Discoveries Inc., and surrounds the Provost Potash Property.
It is located about 45 km west of the historic Unity Potash Mine in Saskatchewan, along the Alberta-‐
Saskatchewan border.
Key Drivers
• Pacific Potash Corporation is the first mover of Potash exploration in Alberta
• Historic gamma ray logs from oil and gas wells within the PPP and surrounding area, indicate the presence
of Potash within the upper part of the Prairie Evaporite Formation
• Current demand for Potash is expected to increase, along with an anticipated production shortfall
Recent News
• October 2011
o The company received drilling permits for the Provost Potash Property
o Drilling commenced on October 24th 2011 for the Provost Potash Property
o Permits are pending for the 50:50 Property
• September 2011
o Signed a Letter of Intent with Grizzly Discoveries Inc., which provides a framework for the joint
exploration of the 50:50 Property
• August 2011
o Retained Taylor Land Services who initiated permitting, site selection and negotiations with surface
rights owners.
o Retained Barlon Engineering to manage the 3rd quarter drill program at Provost
5. Benefits of Alberta
FSE: P9P
Potash In Alberta – A Brief History
• 1st Recorded Occurrence of Potash in Alberta (1945)
o VCO # 15 near Vermillion, Alberta (about 100 km northwest of Provost)
o Up to 4 m of carnallite (KMgCl3 2O), 12m of possible sylvite (KCI)
o Historic work noted peak grades of 10% K2O
• 2 nd
o Provost No. 2 – Provost Alberta (about 10 km west of Provost Potash Property -‐ PPP)
o Variable occurrences Potash minerals noted over a 110m interval
o Historic work noted peak grades of 4.1% K2O
• 1 st Potash Exploration -‐ Development (Not Alberta, but close)
o Verbata No. 2 -‐ Unity, Saskatchewan (located about 45 east of the PPP)
o 3.3 m thick (10’10”) of 2O equivalent
o Shaft sunk in 1952, but no reported production, as water and sand from the
Blairmore Formation flooded the shaft
6. The Alberta Advantage

• Both lines provide access to shipment facilities across Canada and the United States
• Service Lines
• Power Lines
• Gas Lines
• Location
• 250 km southeast of Edmonton, Alberta
• 270 km west of Saskatoon
• Towns
• Provost, Alberta is near the northwest corner of the property
• Suitable for immediate accommodation, supplies, services and workforce
Tax & Royalties
• Alberta was ranked the No. 1 jurisdiction for Mining and Exploration by the Fraser Institute (March 2011)
• The Alberta Department of Energy (Mineral Development Division) advised that the royalty on potash
would be similar to that of salt:

7. The Properties
FSE: P9P
Provost Potash and 50:50 Property(s)
Location
Provost, Alberta, near the Saskatchewan Border
(250 km southeast of Edmonton), about 45 km west
of the historic Unity Potash Mine
Geology
Potash is within the Patience Lake Member, within the
uppermost parts of the Devonian Prairie Evaporite
Formation (PEF), at depths of 1,300 to 1,450 m
Property(s)
The Provost Potash Property encompasses two
Metallic and Industrial Mineral (MAIM) permits
totalling 17,781 hectares (43,938 acres)
The surrounding 50:50 Property consists of 24 MAIM
permits totalling more than 500,000 acres.
Access
Year-‐round, via paved highways, roads and secondary
gravel roads. The CNR and CPR cross the property(s).
Power
Network of power, gas and various service lines.
Exploration Season
Year round (in snowfall or precipitation)
8. Regional Geology (Historic Drill Sites)
FSE: P9P
Provost Property
Devonian Prairie Evaporite Formation (PEF) occurs
at depths of 1,300 to 1,450 m. Within the region,
the Patience Lake Member occurs near the top of
the PEF. It consists of interbedded Halite (NaCl);
Carnallite (KMgCL3-‐ 2O) and Sylvite (KCl); and clay
minerals.
Historical Interpretations
Several historic oil and gas holes have penetrated
the PEF in the region. Downhole gamma ray logs
from within the PPP and surrounding area may
indicate the presence of significant potash.

and
Cautionary Language • Peak value of 225 API (~15% K2O) across
* The use of gamma ray logs to identify potash
layers, while an important exploration tool, is 1.75 m
dependent on many variables (background Hole: Sage et al Provost 11-‐20-‐37-‐1W4*

individual beds, etc.) and is not an absolute • Strong gamma response, no scale provided

K2O are based on Schlumberger’s (1974)
approximation of 15 API = 1% K2O for potash • Peak value of 255 API (~17% K2O) across
bearing units. Until these intervals are 2.25 m
confirmed by chemical analysis, they should not
be considered as an absolute measure of grade Hole: Provost No.2

Notes: Assay data not available – DPEF is not currently known to outcrop at or near the Property.
