Australian Agrimin advancing Mackay Potash project towards final investment decision

HOUSTON (ICIS)– Producer Agrimin Limited said their Mackay Potash project in Western Australia is now advancing towards a final investment decision.

In an update on quarterly activities the company said it continues to focus on their project which is planned to be able to manufacture standard and granular sulphate of potash (SOP) products.

Current activities include efforts towards project funding and strategic partnerships, design works, environmental approvals as well as product marketing.

The Mackay project is set to undertake sustainable extraction of brine from Lake Mackay using a network of shallow trenches, which will be transferred along trenches into a series of solar evaporation ponds.

Raw potash salts will crystallize on the floor of the ponds and be collected by wet harvesters and pumped as a slurry to the processing plant that will refine harvested salts into high quality finished SOP ready for direct use by customers.
