Grupa Azoty Police signed a trilateral contract on 5 February 2019 with Ameropa AG as seller and Somiva SA as producer for low-cadmium phosphate rock. The deal runs until February 2021 and has an estimated value of about $64 million.
Somiva's Senegal mine is the source, and the buyer cites expected EU cadmium limits as the reason for the purchase.
Securing low-cadmium rock ahead of possible EU limits signals rising demand for compliant phosphate supply, which supports premium pricing for quality rock.
