          AFRICAN POTASH LIMITED 
 
          ("African Potash" or the "Company") 
 
          Board Changes 
 
  African Potash, the NEX listed exploration company focused on the vertical 
       integration of fertiliser operations in Africa and sub-Saharan potash 
   assets, announces the resignation of Simon Dorling, Peter Hain and Declan 
                   O'Brien as non-executive directors with immediate effect. 
 
  Simon Dorling has been the lead geologist on the Lac Dinga Project and has 
  decided to step down following the effective date of the earn-in agreement 
       with African Agronomix Limited who are now the operator of Lac Dinga. 
 
Peter Hain has been most supportive of the Company's efforts to bring fairly 
 priced fertiliser to the African Farmer, However, his increased workload on 
                     other duties has prompted him to step down. 
 
Declan O'Brien has played an active role as a non-executive director and has 
  been instrumental in developing the Company's trading strategy to focus on 
 selling direct to the wholesale and retail distribution outlets serving the 
                     small-scale farmer in particular. 
 
 The Board thank Simon, Peter and Declan for their valuable counsel and wish 
                     them all well in their future endeavours. 
 
      African Potash Executive Chairman, Chris Cleverly, said: "With African 
Agronomix's participation in the Lac Dinga project, African Potash now has a 
  supportive and experienced partner to help develop this valuable resource. 
   Elsewhere, the Company is developing strategic partnerships as it pursues 
     the building of its integrated fertiliser platform as well as exploring 
          innovative solutions for fertiliser trading which will benefit all 
                     stakeholders. " 
 
   The Company will be announcing Board appointments in the coming months to 
                     support its strategy in Africa. 
 
  The Directors of the Company accept responsibility for the content of this 
                     announcement.
