Passport Potash Inc. (the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:PPI)(OTCQX:PPRTF) announces an
update on the status of its NI 43-101 Technical Report ("Report"). As earlier
announced the Report is being prepared by SRK Consulting (US) Inc. ("SRK"). SRK
has advised that the Report should be finalized the last week of October 2011.
Further, the Company has been informed that the Report will not include a
current resource estimate. Allan Moran, P. Geo. C.P.G., Principal Consultant
(Geology) for SRK, has indicated that "SRK will provide specific recommendations
of the data verification work necessary to be able to incorporate the many
historical drillholes into an initial resource estimate for Inferred and
possibly Indicated resources - we think this can be accomplished in
approximately a 2 month time frame, depending upon the speed of historical data
verification." Mr. Moran has informed the Company that they have assessed the
exploration potential based on the Company's current drill results and will
include an order of magnitude estimate for exploration potential in the Report.


"We are very pleased to be receiving the NI 43-101 Technical Report from SRK,
and look forward to receiving the estimate of exploration potential that will be
included," says Joshua Bleak, the Company's President and CEO. "We eagerly
anticipate the forthcoming revised report which will provide us with an
estimated 'Inferred' and possibly 'Indicated' potash resource tonnage."


The Company would also like to clarify statements made by its President and CEO
Joshua Bleak at a presentation at the Rodman and Renshaw Annual Global
Investment Conference in early September. In his presentation and in response to
questions Mr. Bleak disclosed numbers indicating an economic analysis not
supported by a NI 43-101 report. The Company would like to clarify this
disclosure, that the figures given were speculative and that an economic
analysis has not been performed on the project.

and mineral resources; the timing and amount of estimated future exploration;
costs of exploration; capital expenditures; success of exploration activities;
permitting time lines and permitting ; government regulation of mining
operations; potential future expansion of the PFNP; environmental risks;
unanticipated reclamation expenses; and title disputes or claims. Generally,
forward-looking information can be identified by the use of forward-looking
terminology such as "plans", "expects" or "does not expect", "is expected",
"budget", "scheduled", "estimates", "forecasts", "intends", "anticipates" or

Although the Company believes the expectations expressed in such forward-looking

cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking

changes in the availability of funding for mineral exploration; unanticipated
changes in key management personnel and general economic conditions. Mining is
an inherently risky business. Accordingly the actual events may differ
materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. For more
