potash mining

In Utah, the miners pump water deep underground to reach the potash ore. Potash is soluble, so water dissolves it into a brine. That brine gets pumped into underground caverns, where the potash continues to dissolve. Eventually, a highly-concentrated brine is pumped all the way to the surface and into one of the evaporation ponds shown above.

Potash Mining. Potash is brought to the surface from over a kilometre below ground using either solution or conventional mining. It is then processed in mills to separate potassium (K) into a unique product, of various sizes and forms, for use in fertilizer products. That product is transported for shipping via train or truck for use on crops ...

The Rocanville potash mine is 16km north-east of Rocanville and approximately 200km east of Regina, south-east Saskatchewan, Canada. The life of the Rocanville potash mine is estimated to be 40 years. Due to the first stage of a nominal 400,000 tonnes per annum (tpa) expansion that came on stream in 2004, capacity increased to 749,000tpa.

As with all mining activities, the extraction and bene- ficiation of phosphate rock and potash to produce mineral fertilizer raw material has the potential to cause environmental impacts. These impacts can take the form of changes to the landscape, water contami- nation, excessive water consumption and air pollution.

Intrepid Potash (NYSE:IPI) with its mines in New Mexico and Utah, is the largest U.S. producer with an annual output of 870,000 tons and currently supplies approximately 9.3 percent of the United States' annual consumption needs. Potash Arizona Inc. plans to build a potash mine in Arizona to supplement local potash production in the United States.

Potassium bearing minerals are mined from underground ore deposits or extracted from salt lakes and brines. (e.g. Great Salt Lake, Utah and the Dead Sea). These deposits were formed as ancient oceans evaporated, leaving behind concentrated salt layers that were subsequently buried by sediment. Most potash mines today are deep shaft mines.
