COMPETENT PERSON STATEMENTS
Elizabeth de Klerk M.Sc., Pr.Sci.Nat., SAIMM., Micon’s Director, Senior Geologist and Competent Person visited the South Harz Potash project from 12[th] to 16[th] February 2018 and 6[th] to 8[th] March 2018. During the initial site visit, the historical drilling area and laboratory facilities at K-Utec Salt Technologies Ltd in Sondershausen were visited. The original drill hole logs, reports, maps and cross-sections held in the Bodenverwertungs and verwaltungs GmbH (BVVG) archives in Berlin were also inspected. In addition, Mrs. de Klerk interviewed the Ercosplan team at their offices in Erfurt to understand how the data were used to compile an Excel database and generate an initial Exploration Target for Mühlhausen-Nohra. The second site visit involved more time spent at K-Utec inspecting additional historical records for Mühlhausen-Nohra held in the archives at the offices of K-Utec Salt Technologies Ltd in Sondershausen.

SUMMARY - A COMPELLING INVESTMENT CASE
==> picture [295 x 66] intentionally omitted <==
-
Massive resources across four potential potash projects in Germany, the largest in Western Europe, 5.3 billion tonnes containing 567 Mt K2O in areas adjacent to historic potash mines.
-
Davenport holds perpetual mining licences & results from over 300 exploration holes drilled by former East German state potash mining company.
-
JORC Inferred resources have been established. Only two twin holes required to ènable announcement of scoping studies in each licence area.
-
Low targeted capital and operating costs.
-
• Unique resource also contains sulphates – attractively priced magnesium and potassium sulphate can be produced.
-
• Funding of drilling program reaching successful conclusion. Drilling will take place in 2021.

MINE CLOSURES
==> picture [295 x 66] intentionally omitted <==
-
The former mines were closed despite successful exploration programs which showed massive resources in adjacent properties.
-
As was in the Soviet the mines were typical bloc, grossly over-manned,
-
inefficient and not commercially viable at prevailing potash prices.
-
• The mines and adjacent, explored properties were offered for sale, but were greatly over-valued. The explored areas with their granted licences remained held by the German Government.

RESOURCE COMPARISON – OTHER POTASH PROJECTS
==> picture [295 x 66] intentionally omitted <==
• In addition to being the largest known potash resource in Western Europe, Davenport holds the world’s resource second-largest untapped compared with other known projects. • Further work within Davenport’s exploration licence areas could more yield significantly resources*.
