The JV will provide that if the acquisitions of the Potash mineral rights are successful, and sufficient Potash is discovered on the claims to warrant commercial production, the JV will utilize the infrastructure located at NMC's site in Palo, Saskatchewan and that NMC will receive an additional 10% of potential net revenues.
