IC Potash Corp. (TSX:ICP,OTCQX:ICPTF) announced it has increased its resource at the Ochoa project.

As quoted in the press release:

The total resources for the Ochoa project now stand at nearly 840 million tons of high grade polyhalite. The resources span an area approximately 80 square miles at a minimum five foot thickness, 80% or greater polyhalite grade, and more than 22% K₂SO₄ content. This translates into more than 190 million tons of SOP contained within the ore, which currently sells for $700 per ton in the US.

IC Potash’s President and CEO, Sidney Himmel said:

“We have defined a world class mineral deposit with an extremely continuous thickness, constant grade, and low dip. This positions our Ochoa project as a low cost and long life mine, which we intend to integrate with a scalable processing facility to produce SOP, the world’s premium price potash.”
