Thailand Presents MOP Opportunities
On 16 June 2025, the Faculty of Mining and Natural Resources at Chulalongkorn University and the Ministry of Industry delivered the culminating presentation of a six-month research initiative examining Thailand’s three major potash (MOP) projects.
The comprehensive study reviewed mining feasibility, economic potential, and strategic opportunities tied to domestic and export-sales of MOP and corresponding bi-products. With substantial reserves and rising regional demand, Thailand has the potential to be an important player in the Southeast Asia potash market.
Ms. Thanchanok (Air) Suwanprasert, Vice President of the Thai Fertilizer Producer and Trade Association (TFPTA) and Managing Director of Chewachem Ltd, attended as an industry representative.
