Resolution R-26-005 – Amendment to Master Mining Plan, Four Corners Mine

Description

Amends the Master Mining Plan to extend mining to 2044 and reclamation to 2055, add about 1,246 acres (East Duette Tract) to the mine boundary, and allow processing of Hardee County ore at the Four Corners plant.

Impact summary

Mosaic says the change means less trucking, earlier closure of one clay settling area, and no new mining areas; the mine's regional plant stays operating 14 more years.
