About Highfield Resources

Highfield Resources is an ASX listed potash company which focuses on the construction of its flagship low cost, low capex Muga Project in Spain having been granted the Mining Concession in July 2021.

Muga is a unique project with shallow mineralization with no aquifers above it and therefore there is no need to build a shaft. There is quality and readily accessible infrastructure already in place in the region and importantly, the Muga Project is located in the heart of a European agricultural region which has a clear deficit in potash supply.

Highfield’s potash tenements (Muga-Vipasca, Pintanos, and Sierra del Perdón) are located in the Ebro potash producing basin in Northern Spain, covering an area of around 262km[2] .
