American Potash Extends Agreement with MGX Minerals

VANCOUVER, Oct. 26, 2017 /CNW/ - American Potash Corporation (the "Company") (AMP:CSE) is pleased to announce that it has signed a six month extension agreement with MGX Minerals Incorporated.

This extension is to allow time for our new partner, MGX Minerals Inc. to get oriented and to contribute MGX's vast experience in drilling to our joint project in the Paradox basin.

This extension applies to our joint venture option agreement dated April 3, 2017.

The extension agreement extends the funding requirement of the first well to March 31, 2018 and the second well to 12 months after September 30, 2018.

AMP also waives the requirement of the $250,000.00 U.S. deposit which was included in our April 3, 2017 agreement.

American Potash is pleased to be working with our new partners who bring extensive experience to our drilling plans.

On behalf of the Board of Directors
