AgriMinco Corp. (TSX VENTURE:ANO) ("AgriMinco" or the "Company") is pleased to
announce it has received the maiden NI 43-101 compliant mineral resource
estimate ("MRE") from the operator of the Danakil Joint Venture, Plinian Capital
LLP, who have reviewed the MRE that was prepared by independent consultants
K-UTEC Salt Technologies ("K-UTEC"), a German consulting firm with expertise in
potash mining, and have agreed to the release of the MRE.


The MRE for the Danakil potash deposit (the "Project") was commissioned by
AgriMinco's joint venture partner the Danakil Potash Corporation ("Danakil
Corp."). Currently AgriMinco holds 30% interest in the Project with Danakil
Corp. holding 70%.


The total MRE includes the Sylvinite ("SYL"), Upper Carnallitite ("UCAR"), Lower
Carnallitite ("LCAR") and the Kainitite ("KAI") potash bearing beds and
comprises of an Indicated mineral resource totalling 708.8 Mt at an average
grade of 19.4% KCl (equivalent to 12.2% K2O), for a total of 137.6 Mt of
contained KCl (equivalent to 87.1 Mt of contained K2O).


The Inferred mineral resource (for all four potash bearing beds) totals 1,116.5
Mt at an average grade of 19.1% KCl (equivalent to 12.0% K2O), for a total of
213.2 Mt contained KCl (equivalent to 134.7 Mt contained K2O). A summary of the
mineral resource estimate is detailed in the tables below.

AgriMinco's CEO, George Roach comments, "The resource estimate confirms
management's confidence in the project and reaffirms our expectations that this
property has the potential to be developed into a world-class exceptionally
low-cost Potash producer. The technical report due for publication is expected
to add further confidence. AgriMinco is now entirely focussing its efforts to
secure finance to avoid dilution and/or dispose of our retained interest in a
manner that best presents value to our shareholders."


The MRE is based on all drilling to date, completed by both G&B Central African
Resources Limited and Danakil Corp. between 2010 to 2013, and comprised of 55
core drill holes totalling 15,664 m metres. The mineral resource estimate was
calculated using polygon areas of each drill hole locations with a defined
radius of 375 metres (diameter 750 meters) for the Indicated category, and 750
metres (diameter 1,500 metres) for the Inferred category. Average dry densities
used in the resource calculations for the four potash bearing beds were 2.07
g/cm3, 1.76 g/cm3, 1.85 g/cm3 and 2.05 g/cm3 for the SYL, UCAR, LCAR and KAI
respectively. Average densities were from on-site measurements on the core from
34 holes.


The top of the potash bearing sequence consists of the SYL member and UCAR
members which have an average thickness of 6.13 metres and 2.28 metres
respectively and can be separated from the lower potash bearing sequence by the
Bischofitite member which has an average thickness of 44.1 metres. The lower
potash bearing beds in the sequence are the LCAR and KAI members which have
average thicknesses of 4.93 metres and 8.78 metres respectively.
