Highfield continues to engage in ongoing offtake discussions with other wholesale customers, distributors and global traders for the full production capacity from the Muga Mine.
Highfield Resources Chairman, Richard Crookes said: “The signing of another offtake MOU is a very important step in solidifying Highfield’s commercialisation strategy. In addition, it is further recognition by the market of the importance of the Muga Mine in the global and local MOP supply space. Keytrade brings many years of experience and a large global network that will be extremely valuable to Highfield.”

Muga Project Overview
Highfield Resources (ASX: HFR) is a Spanish potash developer. The Company’s flagship Muga Project is targeting the relatively shallow sylvinite beds in the Muga Project area that cover about 60km[2] in the Provinces of Navarra and Aragón. Mining is planned to commence at a depth of approximately 350 metres from surface and is therefore ideal for a relatively low-cost conventional mine.
The Vipasca Permit Area (“Vipasca”) (see Figure 1) is located adjacent to the Muga Project and covers approximately 27km[2] . Some areas of the tenement are highly prospective for economic potash mineralisation, with a primary focus on the deeper, higher grade, P1 and P2 potash horizons.
This announcement has been authorised for release by the directors of Highfield Resources Limited
