Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information

• This presentation contains “forward-looking statements” and “forward-looking information” within the meaning of applicable law, which include statements herein relating to the potential to

increase mineral resource and mineral reserve estimates. Generally, forward-looking statements and forward-looking information can be identified by the use of forward-looking

terminology such as “plans”, “expects” or “does not expect”, “is expected”, “budget”, “scheduled”, “estimates”, “forecasts”, “intends”, “anticipates” or “does not anticipate”, “believes”, or

variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might” or “will be taken”, “occur” or “be achieved”. All forward-looking

statements and forward-looking information are based on reasonable assumptions that have been made by the Company as at the date of such information. Forward-looking statements

assumptions used in preparation of the Feasibility Study on the Lower Phosphate Zone of the Paris Hills Phosphate Project including government regulation, phosphate prices, labour

costs and capital costs, and project risks including project location, permitting requirements, project delays, ground control and dilution and water management; the general risks associated

with the speculative nature of the Company’s business, commodity prices, current global financial conditions, uncertainty of additional capital, price volatility, the Paris Hills Phosphate

Project being a development-stage project, limited operating history, no history of earnings, government regulation in the mining industry, environmental risks and hazards, impending

climate change legislation, required approvals and permits, foreign subsidiaries, risks relating to the retention of the Paris Hills Project, expiration of leases and permits for the Paris Hills

Project, title to mineral properties, obtaining mineral concessions and surface rights, community relations and project support, water rights, exploration, development and operating risks,

uncertainty in the estimation of mineral reserves and resources, uncertainty of inferred mineral resources, mineral exploration, reliability of historical exploration work, risks associated with

having a controlling shareholder, arbitrary offering price, dilution to the common shares, dependence on key personnel, currency fluctuations, insurance and uninsured risks, competition,

legal proceedings, conflicts of interest and lack of dividends as well as those factors discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the Company’s most recently filed annual information

form available at www.sedar.com. Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-

looking statements and forward-looking information, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such

information will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements or information. Accordingly, readers should not

place undue reliance on forward-looking statements or forward-looking information. The forward-looking statements and forward-looking information contained in this presentation are

Cautionary Note to United States Investors Concerning Estimates of Mineral Resources

• This presentation uses the terms “Measured Mineral Resources”, “Indicated Mineral Resources” and “Inferred Mineral Resources”. United States investors are advised that while such

terms are recognized and required by Canadian regulations to be disclosed, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission generally does not permit disclosure of mineral

resources of any kind in documents filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. “Inferred Mineral Resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their

existence, and as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an Inferred Mineral Resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under

Canadian rules, estimates of Inferred Mineral Resources may not form the basis of feasibility or other economic studies. United States investors are cautioned not to assume that all or

any part of Measured Mineral Resources or Indicated Mineral Resources will ever be converted into Mineral Reserves. United States investors are also cautioned not to

assume that all or any part of an Inferred Mineral Resource exists, or is economically or legally mineable.

*Sources: IFA, US Geological Survey, Argus Media (FMB). Merchant market share (world

exports as a percentage of world production) declined from 22% in 1999 to 13% in 2012. For

Upper Zone estimates do not include the Lower Zone or Upturned Limb.

The NI 43-101 Technical Report on Paris Hills Phosphate Project

noted that two preliminary laboratory tests have shown that the Upper

Phosphate Zone horizontal limb material can be successfully

beneficiated into an acceptable phosphate rock concentrate of about

30% P2O5, with CaO/P2O5 ratios of 1.44 to 1.50 and minor element

ratios of 0.06 and 0.07. The process recovered about 70% of the

P2O5.

1 The Exploration targets are conceptual in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define them as Mineral Resources, and it is uncertain if

further exploration will result in the determination of a Mineral Resource under NI 43-101. The Exploration Targets are not being reported as part of any
