Potential Demand for Calcium Sulphate over 600M Tonnes
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, November 22nd, 2012 - Pan American Fertilizer Corp., (CNSX: PAF) ("Pan American" or the "Company") reports the release of the following letter to its shareholders from its Chairman, Randy Wright.
Dear Shareholder,
Pan American recently announced the termination of our previously announced merger with Pacific Potash. Unfavorable market conditions were the key factor in the board's decision to not move forward with the merger. The Company remains ideally positioned to take advantage of our rapidly increasing extraction rate at our Santiago Del Estero, Argentina site, as well as the steady increase in both local and international demand for our high quality product.
Our strategy remains based on the simple principal of supplying the highest quality product available to a continually growing robust market. As we move forward and meet both our extraction and sales milestones, our revenue stream will allow us to also pursue value added transactions with local Argentinean and international partners while avoiding significant share dilution. We will continue to remain open to new opportunities that will leverage our proven asset and position us to meet our long term vision of becoming a major global fertilizer supplier.
Your Board of Directors and management team remain dedicated to increasing shareholder value, and we continue to be motivated by the prospects of the Company. I would like to personally thank each of you, and will work to ensure your trust is maintained as Pan American grows.
Sincerely,
"Randy Wright"
Randy Wright
Chairman, President and CEO
About Pan American Fertilizer Corp.
Pan American is a Canadian company dedicated to providing fertilizer to growing global markets specifically in South and Central America. The company is focused on the extraction of a specific type of fertilizer called calcium sulphate (also referred to as "Agricultural Gypsum") currently in Argentina. To ensure long term development and increase shareholder value, Pan American currently plans to significantly expand its current operational objectives while expanding its asset base by acquiring additional calcium sulphate and other fertilizer related assets and by expanding its markets to neighbouring countries with Argentina.
When used as a fertilizer and as a soil remediator, calcium sulphate is a soft sulfate mineral composed of calcium sulfate dihydrate which is extremely rich in sulphur and calcium. When dissolved in water, the mineral becomes calcium and sulphate sulphur ions, both of which are required nutrients for plants. Calcium sulphate plays a vital role in establishing and maintaining good chemical balance in soil, water and plants, specifically with healthy root development. Ultimately, calcium sulphate increases overall crop quality and yields. www.PAFertilzer.com
