Mark, your welcome.

In answer to your question as to who gets hurt, certainly once production ramps up i would expect to see substantial reductions in contracts across the board for importing companies including POT and the russians, the initial PEA of 1.1 million tons/yr was slated to put a serious dent in both of thier bottom lines, the latest revised scaled up potential target of 4.4 million tons/yr has potential to serious squeeze imports down to a trickle and if all goes according to plan the complete suspension of all POT imports.

AMZ said there was going to be a signing ceremony in the tax concession news release and true to the word we just had it, phenomenal development going forward for AMZ. Management has surrounded themselves with the best of the best in Brazilian ag circles, Dr. Korndorfer and his work is simply pivotal to Brazillian self reliance.

The kicker for all wondering where this is all going is that currently in the Cerrado there exists a very well organized initiative/efforts of co-operative farming spear headed by the Brazillian giant Petrobras and others, they have numerous rural co-ops bringing rural farmers together collective managing the lands for production of sugarcane destined for ethanol production not to mention all other consumables. As an added benefit in addition to its slow release properties and macronutrients, all farmers bringing lands up to producing capabilities the AMZ Thermopotash product has a distinct advantage for the farmers in that for every ton of TPOT deployed the farmer can reduce the amount of limestone required by 400kg, a huge, huge cost savings.

Name change coming up soon. AMZ will be known a Verdete Potash PLC, no word as to the new symbol yet. We have had 4 drills going at it between the Funchal Norte extension of Pot zones and the Apitite phosphate discovery zones all of which will significantly increase both resource tonnage, Sekita TPOT testing on carrot growth should be near news releasable, AMZ has a patent app in the works which if granted will solidify AMZ position for TPOT development, in terms of production logistics last year there was discovery of Natural Gas on the property which with the necessary downstream development would segway nicely in the supply of a fuel for the frit process for TPOT. The tax concessions announce will also most certainly reduce the published cost/ton. The signing ceremony was a critical step for AMZ as it secures State gauranteed financing to take us from exploration to production. This locks in shareholder value going forward as dilution is a non issue for development. AMZ has in place supply agreements in exchange for TPOT tests with not only Sekita but with Agrifirma and Archelor Mittal as well each gauranteed 15% of production at market prices so we have sales of 45% between the three post commissioning of the production facility. The two main blenders which distribute ferts in Brazil...Herringer and Fosfertil will soon recognise the AMZ benefit of local supply, no shipping, less trucking equals more profit.

AMZ sits now in the enviable position of becoming the Brazilian equivalent of Canada's Potash Corp with a hell of a lot less outstanding shares!

There is so much going on with AMZ it hard to keep it all straight, the possibilities are endless.

All the notes above are well outside of AMZ examining EXPORT potential.

With the peding confirmation of TPOT effectiveness in the growth of Carrots from Sekita those sitting on the sidelines watching and waiting will have to move quickly to get any at these prices.

Imagine POT sp with only 35 million outstanding.

Mark, i may come off sounding like a cheerleader but rest assured i have done my DD on this stock, dozens of hours scouring the portugese sites of Brazil reading everything potash, soil, growth rates, fert uptake, import export, farming, the works of Lopez et all and a whack of other this and thats pertaining to the Cerrado and food production.

As to Vale, the old snooze ya loose applies, Vale once owned the very claims AMZ is now in development stages with. At the time pot pricing made it non-economical for development as a result the claims lapsed and Christiano sewed em up. Vale staked some surrounding claims post announcement of Funchal Norte (main deposit) but all the good stuffs in AMZ hands.

Hats off to AMZ management for taking the company to the position of moving Brazil towards self sufficiency on the Ag front, matter of time before all sleeping wake up and take notice.

AMZ has a potash deposit estimated by some to be in the many billions of tons

AMZ has a phosphate deposit, we should know soon how much

AMZ has a gold deposit on the back burner, they should spin it out.

Wow! Now that’s a pop for Amazon Mining and it’s hard to

believe we used to writing up that story on such a regular basis.

Now it’s getting much too blue-chip for us, but we do

have to, once again, thank Jed Richardson, the ex-Sprott analyst

who got us into this story, got us down to Brazil to see

first hand what agriculture is like in Brazil (can you believe

farming down there in some areas has three crops a year...not

waiting and just hoping for just one crop) and the country

needs fertilizer as they have to import almost 92% of what they

use.

Yesterday’s news out of Amazon is that the Brazilian government

is obviously bending over backwards, doing just anything

they can to make sure Amazon’s project is a success.

They want some fertilizer and some fertilizer production jobs

nearby.
