# Potash Mine Output Sees Strong 40% Surge Under Stratos

> Stratos, which owns Brazil's only operating potash mine at Taquari-Vassouras in Sergipe, says it raised potassium chloride output by 40% in its first year of operation after taking over from Mosaic. The company said it extracted about 2 million tonnes of ore in 2026, following a sale that closed in November 2025.
