OPC Organic Potash Corp

Organic Potash Corporation (“OPC” or the “Corporation”) is pleased to announce that further to its press release of November 24, 2015, Karl Akueson, Founder of NCV, OPC’s joint venture partner in the Ivory Coast has, acting in capacity as Trustee, for both NCV and OPC, entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with a major international producer of low carbon energy (the “Partner”) for the construction of a plant that would allow the economical viable production of renewable energy, heat, potassium carbonate, and natural fertilizers from cocoa pod husks. The Parties will continue to work towards a Joint Venture Agreement in early 2019.

The Partner will be fully identified upon the conclusion of a binding agreement.

It is the intention to develop a first prototype unit for the production of 1 MW of electricity, approximately 1,000 tons per year of potassium carbonate and various natural fertilizer compositions. The viability of this prototype would serve as a basis for replication of the project, on other sites in Ivory Coast, or elsewhere in Africa. In Ivory Coast, the Parties have the objective to replicate this prototype model to achieve a combined production of at least 10 MW of electricity and 10,000 tonnes per year of potassium carbonate (the “Project”).

Africa supplies approximately 75% of global cocoa. Ivory Coast alone produces 43%. This represents a unique opportunity for major growth prospects for OPC and its technology.

Mrs. Heather Welner, President, CEO stated: This venture will lay the groundwork for similar projects in Ivory Coast and throughout West Africa. OPC is proud to be a partner with NCV and a major international company and looks forward to a long and successful relationship.
