WHY DO WE NEED FERTILIZERS?

MORE FOOD FROM LESS LAND

TO FEED ALMOST

10 BILLION PEOPLE IN 2050

WORLD’S LARGEST & HIGHEST GRADE POLYHALITE RESOURCE

Notes: SM11 and deflections SM11A and SM11B completed. SM14 exploration completed. The general area of interest shown is a conceptual outline of where the Company currently holds mineral rights.

WHAT IS POLY4?

Notes: 1) Based on 90% polyhalite grade. Macro nutrients based on w/w5 and micro nutrients based on mg/kg; micro nutrients’ content: B 169, Zn 1.9, Mn 3.1, Mo 0.3, Se>0.5, FE>0.5, Cu 1.1, Sr 1414. 2) POLY4 is the trademark name for polyhalite products from the

Sirius Minerals polyhalite project in North Yorkshire, *48% SO3.

POLY4

Notes: 1) Yield parameters by crop; sugarcane yield, wheat dry weight, soybean fresh weight, corn aerial fresh weight (40 days), peanuts fresh weight, cabbage head weight, tomato yield. Yield gains of POLY4 over MOP T12 NPK blends and T12 NPK synthetic POLY4 made out of SOP, Gypsum, and Kieserite. 2) Field trial. 3) Greenhouse trial. 4) Illustrative purposes based on agronomic nutrient requirement profile. 5) POLY4 opportunity - represents the theoretical POLY4 demand by multiplying the recommended K2O rates per crop per ha by the global amount of hectares harvested for corn, soybean, wheat and sugarcane.
