An excerpt from a recent Countryman feature
The Mineral Fertiliser Company (MFC) provides bulk mineral supplements for large-scale operations throughout the State from its Ravensthorpe base.
Originating on the site of the Elverdton copper mine, which closed in 1971 due to low copper prices, the mineral laden depositwas reinvigorated in 1996 by Gale and Mark Williams, who realised its incredible potential for agriculture as a mineral fertiliser.
Historically mined for metal production, of copper rich fertiliser, and gold, it was unknown until recent years of the rare mineralisation of the mine resource.
Geologists confirmed the mineralisation of Elverdton copper mine occurs in granitic and volcanic rocks of Archaean age, a deposit abundant in essential and trace elements unique to Western Australia.
As a result, the mineral abundant deposit environmentally recycled by MFC is certified free of heavy metals.
In fact, MFC products are certified organic under Australian standards, and is also carbon neutral. (Zero Carbon footprint)
The mine now supplies producers throughout the State with Supermin® mineral fertiliser, delivering a specific mix of essential elements to soils, including magnesium, iron, copper, calcium, sulphur, phosphorus, potassium, silica, boron, zinc, manganese, molybdenum, cobalt, selenium, and nickel.
Supermin® being delivered to South Korea in 2026
