Non-binding Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) signed with Ameropa AG for the sale of 250,000 tonnes of MOP from the Muga Potash Mine
-
Ameropa AG is a Swiss based agri-business with world-wide activities ranging from production, logistics and marketing to distribution
As part of its sales and marketing strategy for the full production of 1 million tonnes per annum of the Muga Potash Mine (“Muga” or “the Mine”), Highfield Resources (ASX: HFR) (“Highfield” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce the signing of a non-binding offtake MOU with Ameropa AG (“Ameropa”).
The agreement is for Highfield to provide Ameropa up to 250,000 metric tonnes per annum of muriate of potash (“MOP” or “the Product”). The Product will be a combination of both standard and granular MOP with Highfield having the option to increase to 300,000 metric tonnes per annum.
Ameropa is a Swiss based agri-business with over 70 years’ experience and undertakes global activities ranging from production, logistics and marketing to distribution.

Following the receipt of its environmental permit in June 2019, Highfield is currently engaged in ongoing offtake discussions with wholesale customers, distributors and global traders for the full production capacity from the Muga Mine.
Highfield Resources CEO Peter Albert said: “We are pleased to have signed this important offtake MOU, which is a further acknowledgement within the potash world that Highfield’s Muga Mine will be an important contributor to both local European and global supply. This is an important first step in our commercialisation strategy and Ameropa brings extensive expertise and experience in the potash and fertiliser space.”
