About Gensource
Gensource is based in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan and is focused on developing potash projects in Saskatchewan, but doing so with a strong link to the end-user market for potash. Gensource’s President & CEO, Mike Ferguson P.Eng., has assembled a management team with direct and specific experience in Saskatchewan potash development. Gensource’s Advisory Board comprises globally-recognized experts on the various aspects of potash drilling, mining and processing technologies and international potash and business development expertise and experience. Gensource believes its technical expertise will allow it to develop a smaller scale, quicker-to-market and much more easily funded project, with excellent economics, than those that have been contemplated to-date in the potash industry.
