1. Introduction
-
Highfield Resources is developing the Muga Project, one of its five 100% owned potash projects in northern Spain.
-
Located in a producing potash basin where undergound mines have operated via decline with simple sylvinite flotation circuit processing.
-
The flagship Muga Project has the lowest capex of any development stage potash project.
-
In production Muga will have first quartile EBITDA margins due to a combination of high price end markets and low total cash costs to customer.
-
Project pipeline share the characteristics required for low capex, high margin mines and offer significant upside potential
-
Management team has proven mine building experience in Spain and operating experience in potash.

The projects are in a producing potash basin where conventional underground mines have operated via decline and sylvinite flotation circuit processing.
-
The projects share many characteristics required to be low capex, high margin potash mines.
-
The flagship Muga Mine Project has the lowest capex of any development stage potash project.
-
In production it will have first quartile EBITDA margins driven by combination of high price end markets and low total cash costs to customer.
-
A management team has been assembled with proven mine building .
