Hi Chriskies
How could I forget about ICL Boulby especially considering their past history of undermining the SXX project and the irony of them switching to poly based on the growing proof of concept the SXX presented and potential production, my consolation being that they are out there spending on trails, PR and delivery which supports the expanding of SXX's target market in the future. By the way ICL Boulby's latest & highest monthly (July) production is 57+k (not necessarily all sold) with a current target of hitting 1m production by the end of 2020.

Yep only 'some degree of testing' against industry fertilisers...just depends on your view of what 'some' looks like and whether that is enough to prove its economic/market viability
Our ongoing programme, conducted in partnership with leading agricultural universities, research institutions and commercial associates, operates across five continents. So far, we have directed over 370 trials, on over 40 crops in 27 different countries.
These studies tested POLY4 on broad acre and high value crops directly against other potassium based fertilizers, both as a straight comparison and as a component in an NPK blend. Results consistently show that POLY4 outperforms muriate of potash (MOP) and sulphate of potash (SOP) in both crop yield and quality, demonstrating the agronomic advantage provided by POLY4's multi-nutrient content. For further details of our agronomy programme, please visit our POLY4 website.

Still I will leave it up to the company to convince those who need the data to inform their bond decisions.

Crikey (wasn't the first word I thought of), I hope they show that at the next round of bond presentations along with how the site looked 3-6-9-12-18 months ago. For all those working with and for SXX and reading this board, hats off to you (when you are out of the compound of course) !!!

Excellent trials Myo on your behalf, indeed the Poly4 coating (which is patented!) clearly has some value.

Just a couple of tests from some niche markets in China, Vietnam, Brazil, US, Argentina and a couple of Euro sites of UK, France, Turkey and Italy...

Love the fact the roundabout has an additional centre lane for large lorries, how useful !
GLA Chem
Wow great stuff guys, the scale just gets bigger but will eventually scale down to next to nothing !

Yep the holes are still sinking further into the ground and closer to the Poly...
oh and yes the company is still supporting the future

When was the last time you heard of news containing both countries linked by one common positive bond...

Thank you Myo and 'here here' to everyones' efforts.
SXX have had to play the long game and we are part of that, good relations with the park are critical (almost put that in capitals) and they have read this forum before and no doubt they continue to read. We have got this far but there is so much still to do and the relationship with NPA is for the long term beyond the build (eg first poly will be transported via road) and needs to remain a good one.

Hope everyone had a good bank holiday and thanks to the SXX team who continued to develop the mine whilst many of us rested, for anyone interested in the Shaft Sinking to 120m:
