August 16, 2022, Regina, SK – Western Potash Corp. (“Western” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that its Milestone Potash Phase 1 Project (the “Project”) team successfully hosted a Community Open House in Kronau, Saskatchewan on August 4, 2022.  This event aimed to update the local community about various aspects of the Project, including the construction plan especially, the optimized mining development plan and Western’s strategic vision for the future.

Western has always placed community relations as one of its top priorities in the development of the Milestone Project. With the successful closing of the Project financings in May, which included a new equity investment by Vantage Chance Limited and another debt investment by the UK-based Appian Capital Advisory Ltd., the Company quickly started to engage the local community to provide an update on the status and progress of the Project. Western also sought to collect feedback from community about the Project’s development through the Open House.  Western also took this opportunity to inform local residents about employment opportunities at Milestone.

The event attracted more than fifty people from the local community, including four city councillors of the Rural Municipality of Lajord, where the Project is located.  Attending on behalf of Western potash were the Company’s CEO & President Bill Xue, Chairman of the Executive Committee Mark Fracchia,  Director of Operations Brandon Bartosh and other key senior staff.
