The Chaketma Phosphate Project
The Chaketma Phosphate Project is a world-class mineral deposit, located 210km south-west of Tunis by road and just 35km from rail access which connects to the Port of Goulette / Rades for direct access to export markets.
The Chaketma Exploration Permit was granted in February 2010 (JORT No 33 22/02/2016) and is 100% owned by Chaketma Phosphate SA (‘CPSA’), a joint venture project company jointly owned by Tunisia Mining Services (‘TMS’) and Celamin (Phosco Limited).
In late 2017, CPSA applied to convert the Chaketma Exploration Permit to a mining concession and recently CPSA has also applied for a new Exploration Permit.
Tunisia Mining Services and Medphos’s plans include the sustainable development of the Chaketma Phosphate project ensuring that:
Joint venture disputes are effectively resolved, and mechanisms are established to prevent future occurrences.
Adherence to all Tunisian laws is ensured.
Development and commercial production methods are designed to benefit all stakeholders, including the Government, shareholders, and local communities.
The Project serves as a proud symbol of local development, led by Tunisian management and expertise.
