China’s Zangge plans end-2024 start on Laos MOP plant
Chinese MOP producer Zangge expects to start construction of its 2mn t/yr plant in Laos by the end of this year.
The first 1mn t/yr phase is expected to be completed by the end of 2026, followed by exports in early 2027. The second phase of similar capacity is likely to start construction in 2027 and be completed in the second half of 2028.
Zangge will become the third Chinese-backed potash producer in Laos after Lao Kaiyuan and Asia Potash. Zangge will also produce 60pc white powder/crystal MOP and red granular MOP, targeting markets in China and southeast Asia.
Its mining area is situated in the Xaythany and Paknguem counties in Vientiane, Laos with a total mining area of nearly 400km².
