Where did 2021 go?
hat started off as an idea earlier this year has turned into a publication that has grown leaps and bounds in only a few short months.
Our flagship publication, PotashWorks magazine (the next issue of which will be released in early 2022), is a favourite in the industry, and since the reception was so warm and successful, the idea arose to come out with a sister online magazine. This direct-to-inbox publication quickly became a success and here we are, three issues later, closing out the year and looking forward to starting our next volume of issues in 2022. In this issue of The Potash Producer e-newsletter, we take a look at BHP’s Jansen project, which recently got approval from their board for a C$7.5 billion investment into Stage 1. This project is set to produce for 100 years and will provide an economic boost which will last a lifetime. There are so many investments being made into the Saskatchewan potash industry, as Minister of Energy and Resources Bronwyn Eyre mentions on page 8. The potash sector in Saskatchewan accounts for close to 30 per cent of all global production and employs more than 5,000 people in the province. It’s a huge resource for not only the Prairies, but for the nation as a whole. These two stories are just the tip of the iceberg in Issue 3 of The Potash Producer and we hope you enjoy this issue and help
spread the message about our publication. If you haven’t done so already, we invite you to share this with your colleagues and friends and sign up at www.potashworks.com/potashproducer/.
