1 Micro ite Enhanced Technology How it Works TIGER MICRONUTRIENT fertilizers began in the lab in Calgary, Canada, where Tiger-ul Products tested the theory of taking extremely fine metal oxide particles, and incorporating them into a conversion matrix. This provides uniform distribution and quick conversion to the plant available sulphate form. The result - the development of TIGER MICRONUTRIENT fertilizers as a new class of micronutrients that produce sulphuric acid in the vicinity of the micronutrient sulphur matrix. Micro ite Enhanced Technology greatly improves the performance of granular micronutrient sources. TIGER MICRONUTRIENT fertilizers are granular fertilizers made from embedding a high analysis pure oxide micronutrient source into the TIGER 90 CR sulphur matrix. Each pastille contains thousands of tiny metal oxide particles per pastille (split pea fertilizer granule). welling agents fracture the pastille and disperse the particles when it comes into contact with soil moisture. As the particles disperse, the micronutrients are exposed to the sulphuric acid that is formed by soil microbes converting the TIGER 90 CR sulphur to sulphate (ulphuric acid -H²04). The oxide micronutrient form is converted from the insoluble oxide form to the soluble, plant-available sulphate form during the growing season, minimizing the loss or tie up of the micronutrient typically associated with sulphate micronutrients. The Benefits Uniform distribution of a finely divided metal oxide spread uniformly to provide optimum number of feeding sites for plant roots. One of the greatest limiting factors is root - nutrient interception. eason long conversion to the plant available sulphate form for optimum uptake, maximum yield and quality response. Improved environmental benefits with resistance to leaching and setting new standards minimizing the heavy metal content of the micronutrient. Bentonite ulphur Micronutrients Micro ite Enhanced Technology ulphur particles Acid Zone olubility - Enhanced by TIGER 90 CR ulphur The matrix contains the micronutrient and TIGER 90 CR sulphur matrix that not only quickly degrades and disperses, but also enhances the rate at which the soil microbes (thiobacilli) oxidize the sulphur to sulphuric acid. ince this sulphuric acid is produced in the immediate vicinity of the micronutrient oxides, they react together to convert to plant available metal sulphates in a conversion that happens quickly and throughout the growing season. ulphur + Air + Water + Thiobacilli Metal oxide + ulphuric Acid Insoluble ulphuric Acid Metal ulphate oluble and Plant Available Thiobacilli soil microbes that exist naturally in our soils, feed off the TIGER 90 CR sulphur and produce sulphuric acid. The presence of the TIGER 90 CR sulphur in the TIGER MICRONUTRIENT fertilizer formulation is oxidized by the Thiobacilli which produces sulfuric acid and greatly improves the conversion of the oxide micronutrient. The above samples emerged in a water solution clearly shows the effects of the ulphur on the TIGER MICRONUTRIENT fertilizer solution vs. the oxide formulation without the ulphur. Page 1

2 TIGER MICRONUTRIENT fertilizers vs. Conventional Oxy-ulfate sources. When comparing TIGER MICRONUTRIENT fertilizers performance to conventional oxysulphates, one must understand how oxy sulphates are manufactured. Oxy-ulphates are formed by taking a Oxide material and grinding it into a powder. The powder is then granulated and placed into a ulphuric Acid bath, and left for a period of time for the sulphuric acid to solubilize the oxide material. This achieves the maximum amount of available sulphate the oxy-sulphate material will contain. Most oxy-sulphate micronutrients range in solubility (available sulphate form) from 1 to 30 based on how long the product was reacted for. Unfortunately this reaction process also results in a granule that becomes hard and difficult to breakdown into a fine powder due to the sulphuric acid treatment. Other problems encountered with oxy-sulphate products that contain a large amount of available sulphate material is the reaction with other products when blended together. The hydroscopic nature of the oxy-sulphate, reacts with such products as ammonium sulphate, urea and potassium and become difficult to handle as the fertilizer blend takes on moisture from the air. The graphs below will explain how TIGER MICRONUTRIENT fertilizers perform based on lab results from an independent Microbiological Consulting company and Tiger-ul Products research staff. Available TIGER Copper TIGER Zinc 68 conversion To ZnO4 45 conversion To CuO4 Conversion Continues over time Most oxy-sulfates range in solubility from days 15 days 30 days TIGER MICRONUTRIENT fertilizers testing conducted in lab with 25 c temperature in continuous water phase for a period of 30 days This graph shows that TIGER MICRONUTRIENT fertilizers unique performance allows for greater availability of the applied micronutrient over a period of time so How do TIGER MICRONUTRIENT fertilizers work?

3 TIGER MICRONUTRIENT fertilizers & Thiobacilli - ulphuric Acid Production The TIGER MICRONUTRIENT fertilizers performance relies on ulphur loving soil microbes called Thiobacilli. These natural soil bacteria are present in all our soils. The key behind the performance is Tiger s technology to incorporate the micronutrient oxide and the TIGER 90 CR sulphur in a matrix that can be easily oxidized by the soil Thiobacilli. Acid Production ( TIGER sulphur + Bacteria + Air + Water )= ulfuric Acid tep #1 1 gram of ulfur.. Example: TIGER Copper 12 ( Cu ) tep #1 Tiger There is 72 grams of TIGER sulphur... for every 18 grams of Copper oxide. A C I D 1 X 3 X tep #2 tep #3. will produce 3 grams of ulfuric Acid... CuO. And will react with 2.5 grams of Oxide micronutrient. tep #4. Therefore 1 grams of TIGER 90 CR sulphur is enough to completely oxidize 2.5 grams of the oxide micronutrient into the plant available sulphate form. Left over ulphuric acid production continues to buffer the micro site surrounding the TIGER MICRONUTRIENT fertilizers, lowering the ph and increasing micronutrient availability. tep #2 There is enough sulphur present to convert 178 grams of copper oxide, and is only required to convert 18 grams (10) of copper oxide. tep #3 This leaves the remaining sulphuric acid produced or 90 of the sulphur left over to drop the ph in the micro site, increasing nutrient availability during the growing season. 18 grams converted to Copper sulfate TIGER MICRONUTRIENT Fertilizers Performance O X I D E ph *{ Lowering the ph in the micro site increases nutrient availability } Lowering the ph increases copper availability 50 times TIGER 12 Copper sample shows ultra fine micronutrient Particles dispersed in a water solution. Blue water indicates presence of Copper ulfate formation. Page 3
