Recent news: 2010-04-12 14:16 ET - http://www.stockwatch.com/newsit/newsit_newsit.aspx?bid=Z-C:PPI-1707826&symbol=PPI&news_region=C


They signed a 4 year lease with an option to purchase on the Twin Butte Ranch, in the potash bearing Holbrook Basin of east-central
Arizona.

Steven L. Rauzi of the Arizona Geological Survey reviewed the
data and published an Open File Report in 2008 which showed the potash horizons ranged from 5 to in excess of 30 feet throughout the Basin. He further estimated a geologic target for the entire Holbrook Basin of 682 million tonnes at 6% K2O to 2.58 billion tonnes at 20% K2O.

Based on Rauzi’s geological target estimate of the entire Holbrook Basin, the 13,350 hectares now under option or lease to Passport could host 8.61% of the total geological target of the 155,000 hectares or 58.7 million tonnes at 6% K2O to 222.2 million tonnes at 20% K2O.

Example Potash at 450 Bucks a ton

59mm tons @ 6% would be 3,540,000 tons of potash = around 1.6 Billion dollars

222mm Tons @ 20% would be about 44 Tons = 20 Billion dollars in potash

Passport is currently applying to the Arizona Oil and Gas Commission for permits to drill an initial 10 holes on the Twin Butte property. Since the Twin Butte Ranch is private land, the permitting process is considerably expedited. Passport anticipates receipt of the permits within 30 days. Passport plans to commence drilling upon closing of its current financing and receipt of the drilling permits.

Due to relatively shallow depths to the top of the potash layers (300-450 metres), the potash deposits of the Holbrook Basin are considered favorable for either conventional underground or in-situ solution mining. Previous drilling has indicated that faulting and layer disruption from diapir effects common to salt deposits are minimal, thereby allowing for increased ease and decreased costs of all future exploration and development activities.

Passport plans an aggressive drill program initially focused on the southeast portion of the ranch to test the thickest areas of potash.

The Twin Butte Lease brings Passport’s total land holdings within the Holbrook Basin to almost 33,000 acres (13,350 hectares). President Richard Hunter is very pleased with the agreement to lease and purchase the Twin Butte Ranch, saying: “Passport has more than tripled its landholdings in the Holbrook Basin by adding some 36 sections of private lands to the 18 sections of State lands it already had. We are now one of the largest landholders, if not the largest landholder, drilling for potash in the Holbrook Basin.”

The Twin Butte Ranch comprises some 28,526 acres (11,544 hectares) of private deeded land with 76.7% or approximately 21,894 acres (8,860 hectares) overlying the potash horizons within the Holbrook Basin.

Under the terms of the agreement Passport can earn a 100% undivided interest in the deeded land and sub-surface minerals rights by making lease payments totaling US$500,000 over the next four years and, upon exercising its option to purchase, by paying US$20,000,000 for the entire Twin Butte Ranch including all sub-surface mineral rights excepting those pertaining to oil and gas, petrified wood and geothermal resources. There are no royalties associated with the sub-surface mineral rights.
