Araxá Project New Agriculture Frontier

Source: (*) IBGE / MBAgro

Both MBAC phosphate projects, Santana and Itafós, have a significant competitive advantage resulting from strategic location;

Considering a radius of 500 km (target areas), estimated 2015 SSP demand is 500 kt and 1,070 kt, respectively, for Santana and Arraias;

Closest competitor ( ) has to transport its rock from over 1,000 km to its site, which is located inside the Itafόs target area;

Other domestic competitors are located at minimum of 700 km away from MBAC sites;

Closest Ports, Itaqui and Aratu, are located more than 1,000 km away from MBAC sites

Inland transportation costs are approx. 6 -7 cents per tonne per km

Laboratory test work for REO extraction has been underway since September 2011

MBAC has successfully produced a bulk concentrate with 99% RE oxides – forecasted cost for the bulk oxides is in the range of $8 to $9 per kg

Test work will also be conducted at labs in Canada, China and Japan to demonstrate and improve current technologies.

MBAC has already started the sample preparation for the pilot plant campaign in Brazil for the Acid route, that will be conducted to treat individual ore types as well as different blends.

Currently evaluating the production of DCP from phosphate solution and the production of niobium oxide from the insoluble residue.

SSP is the most applied fertilizer for the Brazilian soil, especially in the Cerradoregion, MBAC’s target area:

IMPROVED ROOT DEPTHBecause of the lack of Ca and the presence of Al3+ in Brazilian soils, the development of roots is compromised, affecting crops productivity, especially, in a dry season (common in the Cerrado).

The Calcium Sulphate in the SSP solves these soil concerns, improving root depth

REDUCES COSTSCalcium Sulphate is the component required for the supplement of S deficiency in the soil and it is

presented in the gypsum and SSP formulas (1 tonne of SSP = 500 kg of Calcium Sulphate)Using a other sources of P, farmers will incur in extra costs due to the purchase and

application of gypsum

$$$

FORMULA COMPOSITIONMost of Brazilian soils, especially those located in the Cerrado region, are very poor in P, Ca and S.

SSP formula contains Calcium Sulphate (Ca and S) and P

Ca(H2PO4)2.H2O+ S

PHOSPHATE SOLUBILITYThe agronomic efficiency of phosphate products is associated with the solubility of P in NAC(1) + H2O

From the total P contained in SSP formula, approximately, 90% is soluble making it very efficient
