This greenfield construction project requires minimal footprint and is near key infrastructure such as highway & rail access, natural gas, power, water, and labour.
Similar to other Gensource module designs, the Tugaske Project will produce a minimum of 250,000 tonnes of muriate of potash (MOP) per year. HELM Fertilizers Corp, a US-based subsidiary of HELM AG, has agreed to purchase 100% of the annual production from the Tugaske Project and market directly to its customers using its own infrastructure for at least the first 10 years.
Tugaske will be one of the lowest cost producers in the industry
