Description

The Great Atlantic Salt Project by Atlas Salt is positioned to become North America's first new salt mine in nearly 30 years. It targets the North American salt supply deficit with a design capacity of 4 million tonnes per annum, employing a shallow-decline mine design at approximately 180 meters depth. The project benefits from proximity to Turf Point deep-water marine port in Newfoundland and Labrador, enabling efficient shipping to eastern US markets. It features a low-cost, all-electric operation powered by clean hydropower, with an All-In Sustaining Cost of $34.9 per tonne and advanced permitting progress.
