K+S Potash Canada’s First Ship Traveling to Customers

On October 24, the first ship carrying product from K+S Potash Canada’s (KSPC) Bethune mine left its potash handling and storage facility at Pacific Coast Terminals (PCT) in Port Moody, BC. The ship was loaded with 30,000 tonnes of potash and will supply customers in Asia.
Dr. Burkhard Lohr, Chairman of the K+S Board of Executive Directors said:

“With the launch of production and the commissioning of the new storage and transshipment facilities, we have now made a decisive step forward: we have started to supply the market with products from our new potash plant.
We will also work consistently on proceeding with the next stage in the project, the ramping up of technical capacity to two million tonnes by the end of the year.”
