Sedgman Pty Limited

Sedgman Novopro is excited to share the news that it has completed the front-end engineering and design (FEED) study for Peak Minerals Inc. The FEED work was completed in support of the Sevier Playa Potash Project (Project) in Millard County, Utah, the most significant sulfate of potash (SOP) fertilizer development in North America. Peak Minerals will produce SOP and associated minerals utilizing natural subsurface brines from the Sevier Playa coupled with solar evaporation to create the lowest-emission SOP facility in the world. The brines, extracted from the Playa using shallow trenches, will be sent to evaporation ponds where crude potassium sulfate salts will be deposited. From there, the salts will be harvested and sent to a processing plant for refining and production of SOP. The refinery utilizes Sedgman Novopro patented technologies that further reduce emissions when compared to competing operations. The project includes a rail loadout facility for shipping bulk as well as bagged products to North American markets.   Sedgman Novopro previously completed a feasibility study for Peak Minerals in 2022 and was awarded the FEED study in 2023.  We look forward to continuing our work with Peak Minerals Inc. to progress this world class fertilizer project.   

☀ Supporting the transition to the resources and minerals for a sustainable future - In the resources sector, CIMIC Group is seizing opportunities to support the growing demand for commodities that will assist the global energy transition. Our minerals processing company Sedgman Pty Limited is diversifying its portfolio to include iron ore, precious and base metals, and critical and industrial minerals processing projects and operations. Sedgman's most recent acquisitions, Prudentia Engineering in March 2024 and MinSol Engineering in April 2024, complete its strategy to become a full service, global provider in the extraction and refining of minerals essential to the rapidly growing clean energy technologies. Prudentia Engineering enhances Sedgman’s existing critical minerals and mineral processing expertise in copper, high purity alumina, vanadium, lithium, cobalt, rare earths, uranium and nickel. Minsol Engineering's expertise in hard rock lithium processing (including lithium carbonate concentration and lithium hydroxide refining), rare earths and mineral sands, complements Sedgman’s brine lithium processing capabilities acquired with Sedgman Novopro. This enables Sedgman to provide its clients with complete solutions in mineral processing for the global energy transition.

Congratulations Comminution Open Call Finalists! We went out into the world to find innovators with ideas to help us reduce energy consumption or increase throughput by changing the way we crush, pulverise and grind rocks for mineral extraction. Finalists will work together with us to understand the opportunities of their comminution technologies. Think & Act Differently (TAD) are partnering with Sedgman Pty Limited to help us complete a study to compare twelve technologies. The study will understand their potential for materially improving overall comminution system capital and operating costs at scale. We will not only focus on comminution applicability at BHP assets, but also consider other niche applications across the value chain to add additional value. Think & Act Differently work together with innovators in different ways to accelerate technologies that could help us deliver resources more efficiently.
