The trouble with most fertilizer is that shipping from North Ontario is expensive

Amazing isn't it. Toronto wants to ship garbage 400 miles to Northern Ontario to an abandoned open pit and can rationalize that cost.

I inspected that carbonatite outcrop. Very interesting and an aberrant commodity in this area. Crushing costs, I figure, were about $ 0.005 / tonne. BTW...great fishing about 1/2 mile west of there.

Agrium is presently producing from the Cargill deposit. Not sure but seems they went into production about 4 years ago. Contractor is a sub of Washington Group out of Boise.
