Togo - Phosphate Engineering and Technical Assistance Project
UMA Engineering Ltd., Calgary, Canada | AGRA Earth & Environmental, Calgary, Canada
Phase I of the proposed project would include: (a) evaluation of the phosphate deposits at Dagbati which are considered to be of adequate quality and quantity to support a phosphate fertilizer project; (b) laboratory and pilot plant tests on phosphate rock and on phosphate slimes recovered from the existing rock beneficiation plant; and (c) preparation of an interim report based on the above studies assessing the economic attractiveness of the phosphate fertilizer project and determining the optimal project scope. Phase II would include: (d) determination of the optimal location for the phosphoric acid and phosphate fertilizer plants taking into account infrastructural requirements such as fresh water, effluent disposal, railways and port facilities, and estimation of investment and operating costs for alternative scopes of full-scale mining and processing operations; (e) market analysis, marketing strategy and shipping arrangement studies to determine prospects for exporting phosphate fertilizer products; (f) further evaluation of other potential phosphate rock reserves adjoining Togo's main known deposits; and(g) preparation of basic engineering and contract documents, and study of project organization.
