Plant and Mine
Our products are mined from a high-purity, chemical-grade deposit in northern Nevada.
Because we sell exclusively to the feed industry, we
take special care with our mining methods. Unlike most quarries, which
use fuel oil-based explosives, we only use mineral oil-based explosives
for blasting this eliminates palatability concerns & potential
chemical contamination if some of the explosive does not detonate.

Our blast hole cuttings are assayed to ensure that our specifications are met.
In the summer of 2002, we completed a total rebuild of
our plant. We added additional finished product storage capacity, a new
covered truck loadout facility, a new grinding mill, a natural gas fired
drier, and a dust removal circuit.
You can now be assured of a dry product, even in the
wet winter months. The dust collection system removes the very fine dust
that was lost mainly in handing and trucks are loaded in minutes.
