Arianne Phosphate, a development-stage phosphate mining company advancing the Lac à Paul project in Quebec’s Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean region, on Aug. 17 announced that Mark Edinger will be joining the company as an advisor. He is a 15-year veteran of Nutrien Ltd. and its predecessor (Potash Corp. of Saskatchewan), most recently serving as Director of Phosphate Commercial and Product Management Teams where he was responsible for the global marketing of Nutrien’s phosphate product lines.
“I worked closely with Mark for many years at Nutrien and look forward to repeating our success at Arianne,” said Raef Sully, former CEO of Nutrien’s Phosphate and Nitrogen divisions and member of the Arianne Board of Directors.
“Aside from their significant phosphate fertilizer operations, Nutrien also produces purified phosphoric acid, the material required for industrial applications as well as the LFP battery,” Sully continued. “Mark and I both know first-hand the opportunities for high-purity market and believe that Arianne can be the major player in this market. We look forward to advancing it.”
