SO4

SO4 is engaged in the production of Sulphate of Potash (SOP) products from the Lake Way asset, which is located in the Goldfields region of Western Australia, 15 kilometers south of Wiluna. Our strategic focus on SOP is motivated by excellent market fundamentals, due to the growth in demand for fertilizers, including SOP, which is driven by the world’s need to feed growing populations from shrinking arable land resulting in the need to improve agricultural yields.
