Work on the study began in 3Q18 in partnership with the Government of New Brunswick, Canada, to examine the possibility of building a phosphoric acid plant at Belledune in New Brunswick.
The machine will harvest the hardened potassium salts from the project's evaporation ponds.
Western Potash Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Western Resources Corp., has completed the Phase I production drilling programme at its potash mine in Saskatchewan, Canada.
The mineral resource estimate now stands at 537 million t of potash with an average grade of 9.24% K2O.
The MoU for the project was signed by Uralchem and Angola’s Grupo Opaia SA on the sidelines of the Africa-Russia forum in Sochi, Russia.
The two companies agreed to evaluate opportunities to exchange information and technical expertise in order to increase the capacity of the South African company’s projects both in South Africa itself, including Elandsfontein, the country’s second largest phosphate deposit, and in the Republic of the Congo and Ghana.
In order to make a FID, work on engineering to support project planning and on finalising the port solution is required, and the Board has approved US$144 million for these activities.
The 25 000 tpy mono-ammonium phosphate plant is located in Gabes, Tunisia.
The contract has been awarded to G&S Engineering Services Pty Ltd (G&S), a wholly owned subsidiary of DRA Global Ltd (DRA).
Enhancements made to the planned design of the process plant and mine have increased the Muga project's net present value and internal rate of return to €1.97 billion and 25% respectively.
The agreement with Muntajat is for the supply and distribution of POLY4 into Africa (except Nigeria and Egypt), Australia, New Zealand and certain remaining Middle-Eastern and Asian territories.
The results from the drilling have led to the decision to drill another hole between the company's Muga project and the Vipasca permit area.
Transhipment Services Australia has been appointed to develop a cost-effective and fit-for-purpose shiploading solution which will be fully integrated with Agrimin’s planned Wyndham Port Facility.
The funds will be used to continue the work streams for the FEED study due to be delivered in 1H20.
