Red Moon Potash: Drill Results Extend Salt/Potash Deposit

ST. JOHN'S, NEWFOUNDLAND AND LABRADOR--(Marketwired - Sep 16, 2013) - Red Moon Potash Inc. ("the Company" - "Red Moon")(TSX VENTURE:RMK), is pleased to announce that drilling has been successful in the extending the Captain Cook salt/potash deposit. The Company recently drilled two holes in the Captain Cook area, CC #2 is approximately 1000 metres northeast of the potash/salt discovery hole CC #1. CC #3 is 500 metres southwest of CC #1. A drill location map is available at www.redmoonpotash.com

Captain Cook #2 encountered 150 metres (303-453 m) of salt including an upper zone of interbedded red salt, grey salt, mudstone and disseminated sylvite at 318 m - 329 m. The most significant potash assays are as follows:

The upper zone is interpreted to correlate with the main upper zone at CC #1. The lower concentration of potash at CC #2 indicates it is located distal from the main potash evaporatic event. For context, the CC #1 results were as follows:

CC #3 encountered 70 metres of salt (225m - 295m) including a zone of interbedded red and grey salt with minor sylvite at 275 m - 280 m. Neither sample analysed returned greater than 1% K₂O.

CC #2 and CC#3 extend the salt basin over a width of approximately 1.5 Km in a north - south orientation in the Captain Cook area. Each hole intersected the potash zone near its depositional margins where potash development is less mature than at CC#1. They were located to the test the extreme margins of potash distribution along readily accessible drill locations in a north and south direction. The most prospective sites in the Captain Cook area for potash remain to the east and west of CC #1 along the geologically interpreted depositional centres where potash development is anticipated to be concentrated. The next round of drilling will test these locations. It is anticipated that 6 - 8 holes will be required to test the potash potential of the area.

The cores from CC #2 and CC #3 will now be sampled for NaCl (salt) concentrations. Salt analysis at CC #1 was very encouraging with a high grade zone of 32 metres (220m-252m) of NaCl exceeding 96% purity. This occurs in a wider interval of salt exceeding 160m in thickness. Results from the salt analysis on CC #2 and CC #3 will be released when available.

The core analysis reported in this release was performed by the SRC Geoanalytical Laboratories of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. All core samples were acquired, sampled, packaged, labelled and transported by or under the direct supervision of company personnel. Patrick J.
