GRO
  • Brazil's Supreme Federal Court rejected a petition filed by the Federal Public Defender's Office seeking to halt construction permits & development activities at the Autazes Potash Project.
  • The ruling leaves in place favorable decisions previously issued by Brazil's Federal Court of Appeals regarding the project.
  • Justice Edson Fachin, President of the Supreme Federal Court, dismissed the petition on August 18, 2026, citing unmet requirements for exceptional proceedings & a lack of demonstrated harm to public order or the economy.
  • A court-supervised consultation with the Mura people resulted in over 90% support for the Autazes Project, which is owned by Brazil Potash.
  • Brazil Potash remains committed to the responsible development of the project & continues engagement with local communities while maintaining compliance with environmental, social, & legal requirements.
  • The company anticipates the project could supply approximately 20% of Brazil's current potash demand with an initial production capacity of up to 2.4 million tons per year.
