The Colluli Mining Share Company (CMSC) has selected Earth Moving Worldwide (EMW) as its preferred contractor to provide mining services for the Colluli Potash Project in Eritrea. Danakali and the Eritrean National Mining Company (ENAMCO) each own 50% of the CMSC, which owns 100% of the project. The Colluli Potash Project is located within the Danakil region of Eritrea, which is approximately 75km from the Red Sea coast. Expected to provide commercial and technical outcomes to the project, EMW has demonstrated a thorough review of Colluli through risk analysis.

The confirmation of EMW is another major step for Danakali and Colluli. We are pleased to be working with a company as experienced as EMW who share our commitment to the well-being of people and the environment surrounding Colluli. With technical backup from AMC Consultants and Majesso Consulting who have expertise in managing mining tenders, a competitive tendering process was conducted for selection of contractor. Danakali note that the mining services contract will be executed early next year, with production expected to start in 2022.
