The survey will involve a plane flying in straight lines at an average height of 100 m to collect geophysical information on the properties of the rocks below ground.

The average grade of 4488 mg/L potassium (10.01kg/m3 SOP) is in line with the upper end of the previously reported Exploration Target, with a maiden Mineral Resource estimated to be delivered early next quarter.

KBR will supply the process technology license, basic engineering design package, and proprietary equipment for the ammonia plants to increase production capacity by over 30% to 2300 tpd each.

The upgraded facility in Chaplin, Saskatchewan, Canada, is expected to be complete by the end of 2023 and will produce 150 000 tpy of sulfate of potash.

Salt Lake Potash has announced the commencement of process plant commissioning at its Lake Way Project near Wiluna, Western Australia.

The plant was revamped to enhance the ammonia production capacity from its original 1360 tpd to 2100 tpd and reduce energy consumption.

The availability of green hydrogen and renewable power is expected to drive further sustainable industrialisation of the port, including production of fertilizers, green steel, chemicals, fuels, and other sustainably manufactured industrial products.

The funding for its Ince manufacturing facility in Cheshire, UK, will help the company move forward with its front end engineering study to capture and store carbon dioxide from its ammonia manufacturing process.

Bauer International FZE constructed approximately 112 000 m2 of cut-off wall over a length of 4.2 km on a dyke surrounding an earth basin used by the Arab Potash Company for carnallite production.

The produced ammonia from the facility being developed by Aquamarine can be used as a fertilizer or green marine fuel, using solid oxide electrolyser cells from Haldor Topsoe.

The company has opened a new monoammonium phosphate (MAP) production facility, with a capacity of 231 000 tpy, at its Volkhov site in the Leningrad region of Russia.

The complex for the production of ammonia, with a capacity of 525 000 tpy, and urea, with a capacity of 700 000 tpy, is to be located at the site of JSC Shchekinoazot, in the Tula region of Russia.

The drilling programme has confirmed the presence of an extensive palaeovalley system up to 5 km wide and 100 m deep, with evidence of multiple aquifers at varying depths.

Sequoia and the Commonwealth Bank of Australia will invest US$39 million and US$25 million respectively into the facility, complimenting existing investments led and arranged by Taurus Mining Finance Fund No. 2 L.P (Taurus) and the Australian Government’s Clean Energy Finance Corp. (CEFC).

It is expected that project construction of the plant in Akwa Ibom state will commence no later than 3Q21. In the first phase of the project, US$1.4 billion will be invested in building out the plant and its supporting infrastructure with a target operations-commencement date of 2025.
