Results from the field work, if successful, will underpin a maiden JORC Mineral Resource for the Lake Throssell SOP project.

Uralchem halted production on Wednesday 8 July due to the calcium chloride content rising abruptly in the Kama river, from which the plant takes water for production.

The company has recently signed a 5-year agreement with Transkimtrade for the distribution of an aggregate of 350 000 t of Polysulphate fertilizers in the Ukraine.

The project remains on track for first sales of sulfate of potash in the March 2021 quarter.

The main line works are anticipated to take five months to install, which will see works complete in December 2020.

Last week The Mosaic Company requested the initiation of countervailing duty investigations into imports of phosphate fertilizers from Morocco and Russia.

The project, which is set to be onstream by 2025, will produce 650 tpy of green hydrogen and 1.2 million tpy of green ammonia.

The upcoming programmes, the first to be undertaken since the lifting of Covid-19 travel restrictions, represent the first field-based exploration to be undertaken at the Lake Throssell sulfate of potash project in Western Australia since its discovery late last year.

During construction of a potash mining and processing facility in Solikamsk, Penetron Perm provided a waterproofing solution for the below-grade concrete components in the new buildings.

The plummeting cost of raw materials, growing production capacity, and mediocre demand have pressured global price indicators of nitrogen, phosphate, and potash to fall either to or near ten-year lows, according to Rabobank’s Semi-Annual Global Fertilizer Outlook.

The Total Resource at the project has increased to 25.37 Mt @ 13 375 mg/L SOP from 18.67 Mt @ 12 388 mg/L.

Haifa Group is planning to invest US$347 million to double its fertilizer production capacity in southern Israel, including the construction of a new ammonia plant.
