About Gensource
Gensource is a fertilizer
development company based in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan and is on
track to become the next fertilizer production company in that
province. With a modular and environmentally leading approach to
potash production, Gensource believes its technical and business
model will be the future of the industry. Gensource operates under
a business plan that has two key components: (1) vertical
integration with the market to ensure that all production capacity
built is directed, and pre-sold, to a specific market, eliminating
market-side risk; and (2) technical innovation which will allow for
a modular and economic potash production facility, that
demonstrates environmental leadership within the industry,
producing no salt tailings, therefore eliminating decommissioning
risk, and requiring no surface brine ponds, thereby removing the
single largest and negative environmental aspect of potash
mining.
Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor

Caution Regarding Forward-Looking
Statement
This news release may contain
forward looking information and Gensource cautions readers that
forward- looking information is based on certain assumptions and
risk factors that could cause actual results to differ materially
from the expectations of Gensource included in this news release.
This news release includes certain "forward-looking statements",
which often, but not always, can be identified by the use of words
such as "believes", "anticipates", "expects", "estimates", "may",
"could", "would", "will", or "plan". These statements are based on
information currently available to Gensource and Gensource provides
no assurance that actual results will meet management's
expectations.
Forward looking statements include
estimates and statements with respect to Gensource's future plans,
objectives or goals, to the effect that Gensource or management
expects a stated condition or result to occur, including any
offering of securities by Gensource. Since forward-looking
statements are based on assumptions and address future events and
conditions, by their very nature they involve inherent risks and
uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those
currently anticipated in such statements for many reasons such as:
failure to finance the Tugaske Project or other projects on terms
which are economic or at all; failure to settle a definitive joint
venture agreement with a party and advance and finance the Tugaske
Project; changes in general economic conditions and conditions in
the financial markets; the ability to find and source off-take
agreements; changes in demand and prices for potash; litigation,
legislative, environmental and other judicial, regulatory,
political and competitive developments; technological and
operational difficulties encountered in connection with Gensource's
activities; an inability to predict and counteract the effects of
COVID-19 on the business of Gensource, including but not limited to
the effects of COVID-19 on the price of commodities, capital market
conditions, restriction on labour and international travel and
supply chains, failure to obtain required regulatory approvals; and
other matters discussed in this news release and in filings made
with securities regulators. This list is not exhaustive of the
factors that may affect any of Gensource's forward-looking
statements. These and other factors should be considered carefully,
and readers should not place undue reliance on Gensource's
forward-looking statements. Gensource does not undertake to update
any forward- looking statement that may be made from time to time
by Gensource or on its behalf, except in accordance with applicable
securities laws.
