HOUSTON (ICIS)–South Africa phosphate
developer Kropz announced it has sent their
first shipment and sale of 33,000 tonnes of
phosphate concentrate from their Elandsfontein
project.
Last December, the producer said the product –
which has been generated throughout the
commissioning and ramp-up period – will be sold
at a discount to current market prices, but did
not identify the purchaser.
“After numerous challenges, we are delighted to
announce our first bulk sale from our
Elandsfontein Phosphate project which is a very
significant achievement for Kropz. We would
also like to take this opportunity to thank all
the team for their dedication and hard work to
reach this milestone,” said Louis Loubser,
Kropz CEO.
The Elandsfontein project is located on the
west coast of South Africa, approximately 95km
north-northwest of Cape Town. It is being
planned to deliver more than 1m tonnes/year of
phosphate rock.
