/NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION IN THE UNITED STATES OR TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES/

TORONTO, Nov. 25 /CNW/ - Trigon Uranium Corp. ("Trigon" or "the Company") (TSXV: TEL.V) announced today that its offer to purchase all shares of Intercontinental Potash Corp. ("ICP") that it does not already own as described in the news release dated June 19, 2009 and the management information circular (the "Circular") dated September 28, 2009 (the "Offer") expired, as planned, on November 19, 2009. Trigon also announces that 100% of ICP shares have been tendered to the Company under the Offer. Common Shares of the Company have not yet been issued under the Offer, and will be issued once the Company has reviewed and ensured the completeness of all documentation received, including the letters of acceptance and transmittal, share certificates, and relevant tax forms for non-residents. Once the Common Shares of the Company are issued under the Offer, all conditions necessary for the closing of the reverse takeover of the Company by ICP (the "Transaction") will have been met, subject to final approval by the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV").

In preparation for the closing of the Transaction, Trigon has completed the following: (i) an engagement letter with Wellington West Capital Markets Inc. on September 25, 2009, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue one common share for each common share of ICP issued pursuant to a proposed financing to raise approximately $5 million at a price to be determined in the context of the market (the "Financing"); (ii) entered into a support agreement with ICP on September 28, 2009 outlining the details of the Offer; (iii) held a special meeting of shareholders on October 26, 2009, where the Transaction and other matters were approved; (iv) delivered the Offer document and letter of acceptance and transmittal to all ICP shareholders on October 29, 2009; and (v) filed articles of amendment with Industry Canada for the consolidation of its Common Shares, subject to which Trigon consolidated its shares on a 1 for 4 basis effective October 30, 2009 (the "Consolidation").

About Intercontinental Potash Corp

ICP is developing its Ochoa New Mexico property with the primary purpose of using polyhalite as feedstock to produce Sulphate of Potash. Sulphate of Potash, "SOP" or Potassium Sulphate, is premium priced potash. The market for SOP is approximately 4 million tonnes per year. SOP is used as a significant alternative fertilizer to sylvite (Muriate of Potash or MOP) for agricultural products such as fruits, vegetables, tobacco, potatoes, and horticultural plants. SOP has low "salinity" compared to MOP, and therefore is also used in various saline soils in the world, which are found for example in China, India, the Mediterranean, and the United States. Polyhalite may also be developed as a slow release multi-nutrient fertilizer which contains the plant macronutrients Potassium, Sulphate, Magnesium and Calcium. ICP's Ochoa property consists of federal sub-surface potassium permits granted by the Bureau of Land Management ("BLM") covering more than 36,500 acres of land. All reclamation plans, environmental plans, and archeological work have been approved by BLM
