Sirius Minerals Plc

Sirius Minerals is now wholly owned by Anglo American plc. Our Woodsmith Project is an innovative, low environmental impact polyhalite fertilizer mine in the north east of England. We are helping the world grow more food in a better way, while leaving a positive legacy for the future of our community.Polyhalite is a natural mineral containing potassium, sulphur, magnesium and calcium – four of the six nutrients that every plant needs to grow. Its natural balance of nutrients will allow farmers to grow healthier, stronger crops from more productive, healthier soil, and help feed a rapidly expanding world.To achieve this vision, we are developing a multibillion pound low-environmental impact mine to access the world’s largest deposit of polyhalite, located under the north east coast of England. It is the first deep mine to be sunk in the UK in 40 years, will provide up to 1000 direct jobs, and has the potential to operate for over 100 years.
