Resource Reserves, The Development Company covers an exploration area of 199.28 km² and has obtained a Resource Certificate, approving 984 million tons of potassium chloride resources with an average grade of 15.50% and 16 million tons of associated bromine with an average grade of 0.25% within 157.72 km². The Setthani Company’s exploration area is 198.97 km², with the Exploration Report under review; the approved potassium chloride resources are expected to reach 1.305 billion tons at an average grade of 16.45%, and bromine resources of 17.0208 million tons at 0.214% average grade. These abundant reserves provide a core foundation for the Company’s long-term development.

Project Planning, The Company plans to build an annual 2 million tons of potassium chloride production capacity in two phases, with Phase I at 1 million tons/year. The total investment for both phases is RMB 9.428 billion. The project is designed by Zhonglan Changhua Engineering Technology Co., Ltd., employing main conveyor decline + auxiliary ramp for development, mid-section conveyor + trackless transportation, and the “strip-room pillar mining with subsequent cemented backfill” method, alongside a process flow of “two-stage cold decomposition crystallization – screening and milling – flotation – washing – drying.” Tail brine is processed using cemented backfill, achieving both efficient resource utilization and ecological protection.
Upon reaching full production, the mining scale will reach 13.6 million tons/year with an annual potassium chloride output of 2 million tons, establishing it as a major global potash raw material base. It is expected to generate nearly 4,000 upstream and downstream jobs, achieve annual revenue of RMB 5 billion, total profits of RMB 1.3 billion, and taxes of RMB 430 million, playing a significant role in regional economic development, employment, and tax contribution.
