| Quick Company Overview
Agripower
has deposits of Diatomaceous Earth (DE) near Townsville in North Queensland,
Northern NSW and Western Australia and in total in the order of 2 billion
tonnes. The DE is located at or near surface to a depth of around 20 metres and
thus extremely easy to mine.
DE is effectively the skeletal remains of phytoplankton that died around 24M
years ago and it is their high Silica based frustules that remains today that
we mine and process.
Over the past five years Agripower has spent extensive time and money on
undertaking research, studies and trials on Silicon and its benefits in
Agriculture and in particular looking at DE as a high source of
silicon.
Extensive testing and trials have demonstrated that the
Agripower DE is extremely high in Plant Available Silicon (PAS).
Agripower’s DE is organic and is registered as an
organic fertiliser with the Biological Farmers Association of Australia.
Agripower is about to start constructing brand new processing facilities
in Queensland with the view of also establishing export
markets for the product. Strong interest has already been received from a
number of countries, South Africa, India, China, Middle East, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, etc.
