Tunisia:
Tunisia’s production of phosphate rock reached 1.13 million mt in the first quarter, the TAP news agency reported this week, citing state-owned Compagnie des Phosphates de Gafsa (CPG).
The first-quarter output was a nearly 750,000 mt increase over the same year-ago period, and was achieved despite a shutdown of the Redayef mine and disruptions at the Om Larayes mine since the beginning of this year, according to the report.
