the Kola Potash Project ("Kola" or the "Kola Project") and Dougou Extension Potash Project ("DX") in
the Sintoukola Basin, located in the Republic of Congo ("RoC"), provides its quarterly update for the
period ended 31 December 2023 (the "Quarter").

Operational Activities
Kola EPC
Kore Potash signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Summit Consortium ("Consortium") in
April 2021 for the Optimisation of Kola, the provision of an EPC contract proposal, and a debt and
royalty financing proposal for the total construction cost of Kola.
The results of the Optimisation Study ("Study") announced on 27 June 2022 supported moving to the
next phase of Kola's development.
On 28 June 2022, the Company announced that it had signed a Heads of Agreement ("HoA") for the
construction of Kola with SEPCO. Under the HoA, SEPCO undertook to continue negotiations with Kore
Potash towards an EPC contract for the construction of Kola. Importantly, the HoA recognised that the
Study's outcomes confirmed the capital cost of Kola, the construction period and related EPC contract
terms.
Recognising the world-class scale of Kola, the length of the proposed construction period and the total
financing requirement, Kore Potash requested that SEPCO's parent company, PowerChina, provide
the typically required EPC contract guarantees, including performance and retention bonds supporting
the completion of construction and the operating performance of Kola.
On 8 August 2023, Kore Potash entered into a revised agreement ("Agreement") with SEPCO to
provide the Company with an EPC contract for the construction of the Kola Project. Following the
completion of SEPCO's parent company, PowerChina's, review of the Kola design and construction
schedule, one of the agreed outcomes was that further engineering design works must be completed
before PowerChina and SEPCO jointly presenting an EPC proposal and EPC contract to the Company.
PowerChina subcontracted five technical groups who commenced additional design and engineering
works. Specific design areas included the underground mine, mineral processing jetty and
transhipment operations, energy transportation and storage, conveyor systems and material handling
(the "Works"). PowerChina advised the Company that the Works would cost in excess of US$10 million
to complete. Illustrating PowerChina's commitment to Kola, it capped Kore Potash's contribution at a
maximum of US$5 million, with the balance of the costs to be paid by PowerChina.
Two payments of US$1.0 million each were made in August and November 2023 as required under
the Agreement. The remaining payments are contingent upon the Company completing further fund
raises and PowerChina and SEPCO's delivery of the EPC contract. The remaining payments are planned
to be paid in two tranches 12 months from date of the execution of the EPC contract.
PowerChina, SEPCO and the subcontractors, in pursuit of the timeline objectives, commenced the
Works before reaching an agreement with the Company on costs.
SEPCO has had personnel living in the Republic of Congo ("RoC") for the past 24 months who continue
dialogue with potential in-country service providers and who have conducted several Kola site visits
collecting information for both the Study and the Works. Additionally, SEPCO mobilised a larger team
to Kola for four months in the second half of 2023 to source additional information to enable the
Works finalisation, including the planned service corridors, conveyor route, and geomechanical
information on foundation materials in the proposed processing plant and infrastructure areas. These
findings were presented to PowerChina in early December 2023.
PowerChina and SEPCO have confirmed that they have received all the information relating to the
Works, internal reports are being finalised, and the EPC contract is in draft form.
Regarding the Works detailed in the Agreement:
- Additional engineering design works – Completed;
- Finalisation of internal reports – week commencing 15 January 2024;
- EPC Proposal and EP Contract offer – on track to be delivered to the Company by the end of
January 2024;
- Kore Potash and SEPCO/PowerChina signing the EPC contract – targeting before the end of
February 2024.
Kola Financing
Kore Potash continues to work with the Consortium to provide financing for the total construction
cost of Kola, which is intended to be based on royalty and debt finance.
The successful outcomes of the Study were in line with the Consortium's requirements and supported
the ongoing financing discussions. The financing parties of the Consortium have again reinforced their
ongoing strong interest in financing Kola and await the finalisation of the EPC contract terms.
The Consortium has advised that the financing proposal for the total construction cost of Kola will be
provided to the Company within six weeks of EPC Contract terms finalisation.
Kore Potash maintains that the Consortium members can provide the required financing for Kola's
construction of Kola and that pursuing this financing opportunity remains the best path forward for
Kore Potash's shareholders.
Congo Government Relations
The Minister of Mines wrote a letter to Kore Potash that pledged the Ministry and the RoC's support
for Kore's development of its projects at Kola and Dougou ("Projects").
The Minister acknowledged that some of the development objectives for the Projects, as outlined in
the Mining Convention, have not yet been met. He also assured the Ministry's steadfast support, in
the form of a moral guarantee, to assist in addressing the remaining challenges to completing the
financing of Kola. The Minister reaffirmed the validity of the Company's mining tenement titles and
the Mining Convention, which is the operating agreement between the Company and the
Government.
He further conveyed a pledge of security reflecting the RoC's confidence in Kore Potash to support
ongoing dialogue and action towards developing our projects in the RoC.
The Minister of Mines of the RoC showed further support for the Company's development of the Kola
Project during a visit to the Kola Project in September.
Kore Potash held a ceremony at the intended location of the Kola processing plant in recognition of
the extensive development work completed by Kore Potash. The ceremony also recognised the
commencement of work on the ground at the Kola site by SEPCO.
The ceremony was held near the village of Yanga in the Kouilou province of the RoC. The Minster,
members of his Ministry and local dignitaries were in attendance, along with the Chairman and Interim
CEO of Kore Potash, David Hathorn, Warren Thompson from the Summit Consortium and SEPCO Vice
President Zhang Quan.
DX Potash Project
At present, the Company remains focused on completing the financing of Kola and moving forward to
the construction of Kola as soon as possible.
The Company is continuing to explore the strategic options available for the DX project.
Corporate
The Company successfully raised US$2.5 million through the issue of 542,250,000 new ordinary shares
of US$0.001 each in the Company ("Subscription Shares") to certain eligible existing shareholders at
a price of 0.38 pence per share ("Subscription Price"). The Company's Chairman has participated with
US$750,000 investment.
At the Company's GM, held on 7 December 2023, all resolutions were duly passed on a poll by the
requisite majority.
There were no mining production or construction activities during the Quarter.
Quarterly cashflow report
In accordance with the ASX Listing Rules, the Company will also lodge its cashflow report for the
Quarter today. Included in those cashflows are Brad Sampson's salary of US$164,000 settled in cash.
The Company invested US$1,683,000 in exploration in the Quarter, which comprised US$1,667,000
related to the Kola Study and US$16,000 for the DX DFS Study. The Company ended the Quarter with
c.US$1.6 million in cash.
This announcement has been approved for release by the Board of Kore Potash.

cash to fund its operations and, if so, what are those steps and how likely does it
believe that they will be successful?
Answer: The Company plans to undertake a fundraise with certain existing and potential
new shareholders. It is assumed that the funding can be secured based on the raise
announced on 31 August 2023 and the Company's history of successfully completing
fundraises.
This assumption also depends on the outcome on the current work being done to secure
the EPC contract.
3. Does the entity expect to be able to continue its operations and to meet its business
objectives and, if so, on what basis?
Answer: The operations are expected to continue subject to the delivery of an Engineering,
