Fosfatos del Pacífico

What Fosfatos del Pacífico does

Fosfatos del Pacífico S.A. is a Peruvian mining company described in the supplied company material as public and listed on the Lima Stock Exchange. It holds the Bayovar 9 non-metallic mining concession on Peru’s northern coast, where diatomite and phosphate rock deposits have been identified. Its intended products are phosphate rock concentrate and diatomite. The phosphate component uses a multi-layer open-pit mining model with conventional and continuous methods, with expected production of 2.5 million metric tons of concentrate per year at approximately 30% P2O5. The company reports completed metallurgical tests and basic engineering for mine, waste-deposit, port, processing-plant, water, and energy supply, plus geological modeling and value engineering. Source:

The company targets fertilizer manufacturers and industrial buyers in local and international markets through direct enterprise sales and prospective exports via port facilities. Phosphate rock pricing is market-based and not publicly disclosed; the stated revenue model is the sale of phosphate rock concentrate and diatomite. Bayovar 9 is a development project, and the company is seeking a strategic partner to advance it, so the supplied material demonstrates planned capacity and commercial intent rather than demonstrated current production or revenue.
