BCI's Mardie Salt & Potash Project in Western Australia is 77% complete, with crystalline lining underway and three crystalline liftstations finished. The project will produce over 5.3 million tonnes of high-purity industrial salt and 140,000 tonnes of sulphate of potash annually.

BCI has secured state and federal approvals for the Optimised Mardie Project and has begun filling its first evaporation ponds. The project spans approximately 100 square kilometers between Karratha and Onslow and includes a dedicated transhipping system with new jetty and offshore loading infrastructure. Funded by a Northern Australia Infrastructure Facility loan of up to $490 million, the project is expected to operate for over 60 years, contributing to regional employment and maritime activity.
