Mining Weekly reported that the Canadian government has announced its approval for development of the first ever on-reserve potash mine.

As quoted in the market report:

First Potash Ventures, a partnership between Encanto Potash and Muskowekwan Resources, was working toward developing the mine on the First Nation’s reserve, located 100 km north-east of Regina. The mine was expected to produce up to 2.8-million tons of potash a year over a 50-year-plus lifetime.
