The trouble with most fertilizer is that shipping from North Ontario is expensive and there is a lock on H2SO4 to make super phosphate. Kidd Creek found that they could not do it, despite their vast amount of phospahte rock and their plentiful supply of sulphuric acid. The canucks would not let them make a dime. The Ontario Northland was run to bleed the Yankee miners.

The Florida producers of ferts have immense environmental problems and have competed themselvs into near bankruptcy. Contrary to what most people might think there is absolutely no shortage now, nor any foreseeable shortage of fertilizer given any increase in world food demand.

This material however has some desirable characteristics, one of which is cheap access and lack of need for upgrading.

Slack is the same guy who did Timmins nickel. Good old Malcolm. At it again.

I think Don Mackinnon had the Cargill or still has it.

There are other carbonatites around. They are not that rare. There are some good ones north of Kirkland. I don't know their assays for radio stuff.
