Brazil Potash Corp., a company developing and constructing the largest potash fertilizer project in Brazil, has announced the signing of a preliminary cooperation agreement with the Mura Indigenous Council (CIM) of Autazes, marking a significant milestone in the development of the company's Autazes Potash Project.

The agreement, signed by the company's wholly-owned subsidiary Potássio do Brasil Ltda., establishes a preliminary framework for collaboration between the project and the Mura Indigenous communities. Key elements include:

  • Implementation of the "Plano Bem Viver Mura" - a sustainable development programme.
  • Investment in social and cultural development initiatives for indigenous villages represented by CIM.
  • Commitment to socioeconomic and environmental programmes aligned with current environmental licensing and legal requirements.

"This Agreement formalises our commitment to promoting sustainable development in partnership with the Mura people," said Adriano Espeschit, President of Potássio do Brasil. "Following their strong support of the project in September 2023, we are pleased to formalise an initial framework that will create lasting positive impact for indigenous communities while advancing Brazil's domestic potash production capabilities.”

The agreement was developed in accordance with the Mura People's requirements and follows extensive community engagement led by CIM, the officially recognised representative body of the Mura People of Autazes.
