Muskowekwan Resources Ltd. Finalizes Negotiations and Executes Mineral Lease with the Federal Government

01.04.2017  |  CNW
VANCOUVER, March 31, 2017 - Encanto Potash Corp. ("Encanto" or the "Company") (TSXV: EPO) announces that project partner, the Muskowekwan First Nation, has successfully secured the terms for and has executed the first ever mineral lease issued through Indian Mining Regulations enabling construction of a solution potash mine on First Nation land. Muskowekwan Resources will be the lessee of the 61,400 acres (containing the proven and probable reserves of 161 million metric tons of potash) and will further contribute the lease to the project with Encanto, having worked cooperatively through Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada and the Department of Justice. The support of the Department of Justice is essential due to its roles and responsibilities as the Minister of Justice and the Attorney General of Canada.

This was a fundamental step, in supporting Encanto's recently signed long term supply agreement. The potash market over the last 4 years has created a situation where sponsored resource development opportunities are becoming scarce, while the market sees an uptick in global demand from large and small buyers alike. The current cooperation between the Canadian Government and Muskowekwan Resources is integral to plan a production schedule that will ramp up in parallel with rising global demand.

Muskowekwan Chief Reginald Bellerose commented: "Mineral title security is the key foundation instrument which will help support every other major milestone on a go forward basis. I would like to thank Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada and Department of Justice for their collaboration on this unique and important mineral lease."

Encanto CEO and President Stavros Daskos stated: "Encanto now has an asset resource and a legal framework that will allow the next steps in securing project financing."
