ASX ANNOUNCEMENT
14 March 2025
DECEMBER 2024 QUARTERLY ACTIVITIES REPORT
South Harz Potash Limited (ASX:SHP) ( South Harz or the Company ) reports on its activities for the quarter ended 31 December 2024 (the Quarter ).
Highlights
-
Progressed due diligence and negotiation of detailed terms for the Sollstedt mine property acquisition. Negotiation of definitive documentation set to follow. Exclusivity period in place until 28 February 2025.
-
Engaged mining consultancy Valleyspring to assist with desktop evaluation of opportunities to unlock additional Ohmgebirge value.
-
Raised approximately A$2.2 million in new equity from existing and new sophisticated shareholders over the course of the capital raising activities covering the period August to December 2024. This included participation by Directors following shareholder approval at the AGM in November 2024, resulting in the issue of 45,116,690 new Director Placement Shares.
-
Post-Quarter end, engaged specialist mining finance advisor Cutfield Freeman & Co to assist with assessing project development funding pathways including strategic partnerships.
South Harz Executive Chairman Mr Len Jubber, commented:
“Our focus during the past quarter continued to be on creating a platform to progress the development of the Ohmgebirge project in a strengthening potash market environment. To that end we have made good progress on multiple fronts.
I would like to express my gratitude to all participating shareholders, new and existing, for their strong support during our capital raising activities over the past quarter.
Importantly, we have continued to reduce our overhead expenditure and deferred certain creditor payments to create a two-year window where new funding will be applied to enhancing the project economics, progressing the Sollstedt acquisition discussions with Deusa, and pursuing a strategic investor / project development partner.
In that respect we are delighted to have appointed highly regarded specialist mining finance advisors Cutfield Freeman & Co to assist us with assessing potential project development funding pathways including identifying potential strategic partners to help us progress the Ohmgebirge project to the definitive feasibility stage and beyond.
The foundation we have established over the past 9 months commencing with the release of the PFS, obtaining the first level of permitting and relocating our London corporate office to Perth favourably positions South Harz to progress the development of the brownfields Ohmgebirge project in the heart of Europe.
Our belief in the South Harz story continues to ramp up as the benefit of the regional and neighbouring mining infrastructure and logistics advantages associated with our location become more and more relevant in the challenging global geo-political environment.”

Ohmgebirge Development
Sollstedt Acquisition
Activities for the purchase of the neighbouring Sollstedt mine property from Deusa International GmbH ( Deusa ) are advancing, with due diligence progressing and the parties negotiating detailed terms (including arrangements for the asset between document execution and completion of the purchase) to be included in the binding definitive transaction documentation which is set to follow. The exclusivity date agreed with Deusa is 28 February 2025.
Project Optimisation
The Company engaged consultancy firm Valleyspring Pty Ltd ( Valleyspring ) to assist with a desktop review of value engineering opportunities to be pursued either leading up to or during the definitive feasibility stage. The review includes considering options to achieve a staged development model leveraging off the four existing Sollstedt shafts and underground workings. The review will be completed during the March 2025 quarter.
German R&D Tax Incentive Rebates
Preparation of German R&D tax incentive rebate applications progressed with the assistance of Thierhoff Consulting. The applications will encompass technical work conducted over the past four years and is restricted to actual expenditure in the European Union. The outcome of the yet to be lodged applications remains uncertain.

German Grant Funding Schemes
Assessment of potential funding opportunities such as freight rail access and clean energy utilisation / critical minerals grants continues.
Stage 2 Regulatory Approval
Advancement of preparatory Stage 2 permitting activities (Framework Operating Plan) for the Ohmgebirge Potash Development following grant of the Spatial Planning Assessment ( refer SHP ASX release dated 14 June 2024, Spatial Planning Assessment Received – Flagship Ohmgebirge Potash Development Receives Stage 1 Permitting Greenlight) continues. The Environmental Baseline Studies, led by Environmental and Permitting specialist ERM, have been finalised and will feed into the final EIA for the stage 2 permitting.
Global Investor Engagement and Key Stakeholder Relations
Investor site visit
In early November 2024, South Harz hosted an investor site visit to Ohmgebirge and other South Harz exploration and mining licence areas. The visit also included an underground tour at the neighbouring Sollstedt mine and driving underground to the potential access areas towards Ohmgebirge and visiting potential / targeted areas for processing and logistics.
Feedback received from the visit included an enhanced appreciation of the scale of the opportunity and the extent of the existing infrastructure, and accompanying brownfield development benefits, offered by the targeted acquisition of the Sollstedt mine.

BDI Raw Materials Congress
In November, South Harz Regional Director Dr Babette Winter attended the Raw Materials Congress of the German Industry Association BDI in Berlin. The Congress brought together over 400 representatives from business, government, science, and civil society to discuss a secure, comprehensive and sustainable supply of raw materials for Germany, including increasing mining activities in Germany. Quoting BDI: “To advance domestic raw material extraction, the industry is calling on the German government to facilitate mining through strategic land use planning and by speeding up approval processes.”
Stakeholder engagement
The elections held in Thuringia in May (local) and September (State) 2024 resulted in a change of State Government with the Left-Socialdemocratic-Green coalition being replaced by a three-party coalition comprising the conservative CDU, Socialdemocrats and newly founded Left-National BSW. The local South Harz team in Germany continue to maintain an active government and community relations program and briefings with the newly elected politicians and officials is underway.
Briefings with the newly elected District Administrator of the Eichsfeld have been very constructive and highlights growing local support for the Ohmgebirge project. Building and maintaining strong relationships with our German stakeholders remains a key priority.
