Intrepid Potash Company Description
Hungry plants turn to Intrepid Potash for their food supply. The mining company produces two potassium-containing minerals, potash and langbeinite, that are essential nutrients in plant and crop fertilizer. Intrepid culls these minerals from five mines in New Mexico and Utah, where it also operates production facilities. Potash accounts for 90% of its sales. The company sells primarily within the US to the agricultural, industrial, and feed markets; PotashCorp sells Intrepid's potash internationally. It supplies nearly 10% of US potash consumption annually and is the country's largest producer of the stuff. (The US imports the great majority of the potash it uses.)
