Ms. Lane will be responsible for the execution of the bankable feasibility study for the Company's 100%-owned Sulphate of Potash ('SOP') Ochoa Project (the 'Project') in southeast New Mexico.

About IC Potash Corp.:

ICP intends to become a primary producer of Sulphate of Potash ('SOP') and Sulphate of Potash Magnesia ('SOPM') by mining its 100%-owned Polyhalite Ochoa property in New Mexico, a highly advanced mineral deposit containing proven and probable reserves of more than 400 million tons of ore within the proposed mine plan. SOP is a non-chloride based potash fertilizer that sells at a substantial premium over the price of regular potash known as Muriate of Potash ('MOP').  MOP contains chloride and is therefore not the optimal potash for numerous crops and in situations where there is high soil salinity.  ICP is focused on becoming the lowest cost producer of SOP in the world. The SOP market is towards six million tonnes per year.  SOP is a significant fertilizer in the fruit, vegetable, tobacco, potato, and horticultural industries.  SOP is also applicable in soils where there is substantial agricultural activity with varieties of crops and therefore where the salinity of the soil has increased, and in areas where soils are dry. SOPM is a highly desirable potash product for soils with magnesium deficiency, including those found in Europe and Southeast Asia and has a total global market size of over one million tonnes. ICP's Ochoa property consists of over 100,000 acres of federal subsurface potassium prospecting permits and State of New Mexico Potassium mining leases.
