MANAUS, Brazil, July 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Brazil Potash Corp. ("Brazil Potash" or the "Company") (NYSE-American: GRO), a mineral exploration and development company with a critical mineral potash mining project, the Autazes Project (the "Project"), today announced the signing of a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Fictor & WTT S.A. ("Fictor Energia"), part of the infrastructure division of Fictor Group, a leading Brazilian private equity firm. The MOU outlines terms for Fictor Energia to fund $200 million in power transmission construction costs for the Autazes Project while securing long-term energy supply and a $20 million strategic equity investment.

Partnership Highlights

Under the terms of the MOU, Fictor Energia would undertake complete development, permitting, construction, and operation of the power transmission infrastructure to supply 300MW per year of 80% renewable sourced Brazil grid electricity for the Autazes Project through a Build, Own, Transfer model. After 25 years of operation, ownership of the electrical power line and associated substation to be transferred to Brazil Potash.

There can be no assurance that the definitive documentation related to the transactions set forth in the MOU will be agreed upon or signed, or that, if signed, such transactions will be consummated, or of the final terms and conditions related to such transactions. The power transmission infrastructure would be expected to be completed and operational by July 2029, aligning with the Autazes Project's planned production timeline.

About Brazil Potash

Brazil Potash (NYSE-American: GRO) (www.brazilpotash.com) is developing the Autazes Project to supply sustainable fertilizers to one of the world's largest agricultural exporters. Brazil is critical for global food security as the country has amongst the highest amounts of fresh water, arable land, and an ideal climate for year-round crop growth, but it is vulnerable as it imported over 95% of its potash fertilizer in 2021, despite having what is anticipated to be one of the world's largest undeveloped potash basins in its own backyard. The potash produced will be transported primarily using low-cost river barges on an inland river system in partnership with Amaggi (www.amaggi.com.br), one of Brazil's largest farmers and logistical operators of agricultural products. With an initial planned annual potash production of up to 2.4 million tons per year, Brazil Potash's management believes it could potentially supply approximately 20% of the current potash demand in Brazil. Management anticipates 100% of Brazil Potash's production will be sold domestically to reduce Brazil's reliance on potash imports while concurrently mitigating approximately 1.4 million tons per year of GHG emissions.
