25.01.2022 New NQ fertiliser mine could have 200-year life The fertiliser expansion project could create nearly 1000 jobs. ... by Rainee Shepperson 24th May 2019 8:00 AM Subscriber only A FERTILISER expansion project could creat nearly 1000 jobs if it goes ahead. The State Government prescribed project status to a North Queensland processing plant for the venture on Thursday. Agripower Australia Limiteds $663 million fertiliser expansion project could create 490 jobs during construction and 470 ongoing operational jobs. Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk said the initiative would bolster the region. "Agripowers amorphous silica is sourced from what is believed to be the worlds largest deposit of the mineral near Greenvale, she said. "Agripower believes that a two billion tonne deposit could create a mine life of 200 years. The Premier said Agripower had recently completed construction of a processing facility near Charters Towers able to produce 240,000 tonne of fertiliser a year. That facility is expected to become operational next month, with the first shipment of 5000 tonnes to be exported to India from the Port of Townsville in July. "The completion of the processing facility is good news for Charters Towers and North Queensland, she said. "I am also pleased to see Agripower is looking to develop a $663 million processing facility near Yabulu. Prescribed project status enables Queenslands independent Coordinator-General to assist the proponent to progress the project efficiently by ensuring timely approvals across all agencies.
