Name of the Project
Nohra-Elende potash project.

Location
Germany.

Project Owner/s
East Exploration, a wholly owned German subsidiary of Davenport Resources.

Project Description
A technical study, based on Nohra-Elende’s Joint Ore Reserves Committee-compliant inferred resource of 1.7-billion tonnes at 9.7% potassium oxide, has shown the project to be technically feasible and economic at current and forecast potash and specialist fertiliser prices.

The study envisages a minimum 34-year mine life, with production of 575 000 t/y of muriate of potash, 640 000 t/y of kieserite and 1.28-million tonnes of industrial-grade sodium chloride a year.

The project will use two-stage cold leaching to separate the chloridic and sulphatic components, followed by a hot leach of the potassium chloride stream with subsequent cooling crystallisation.
