iC Potash (TSXV:ICP)

All Potash is not created equal. The most common form, called Muriate of Potash, or MOP, accounts for about 95% of all potash fertilizers used worldwide.
Toronto’s IC Potash, however, is concerned with the more rare and expensive Sulphate of Potash, or SOP. SOP is slightly lower in potassium and is used in crops such as tobacco or pineapples, which are more inclined to fertilizer burn. SOP, which is sometimes referred to as “premium” potash, is aptly named because it trades at a premium; the price is normally 20-30% higher than regular potash.
With their Ochoa project in New Mexico, a land position that covers more than 100,000 acres, IC Potash is focused on becoming the world’s lowest cost producer of SOP. IC believes they are sitting on a resource of over a billion tonnes that is, as the company describes, “an average of 5.7 feet thick, and has an 83% grade, a remarkable grade for any resource.”
Shares of IC Potash raced from $.85 cents on December 20th of last year to over $1.70 as the potential of the Ochoa project became verified. The biggest one day leap happened January 5th after an updated preliminary economic assessment by Gustavson Associates of Lakewood, Colorado estimated the net present value of the Ochoa project at $1.4-billion. On March 17th, the company completed a $20 million financing at $1.60 per share. Going forward, IC Potash said their capital cost estimates to develop their mine are $662-million, and projected production cost of SOP will be $164 per tonne.
Investors bullish on IC Potash believe these profit margins will continue to positively affect the company's share price. Compass Minerals, through its wholly owned subsidiary Great Salt Lake Minerals, is the leading producer of sulphate of potash in North America. In March, that company reported it was selling SOP for roughly $900 per short tonne, up $50 from the company’s December 2010 price.
In closing, Pinetree Capital has bought into IC Potash.

Equity analyst are paying attention to rising prices, but some perceive a shortage of potash juniors in a sector where properties are scarce and mines can take years to develop. Robert Winslow, an analyst with Wellington West, said IC Potash is “set to benefit from a resurgence in demand.” Because, prices for “premium” potash are still trending up and the acquisition of junior Potash One made remaining Potash juniors more valuable compelling him to “...re-rate all the junior potash stocks we cover with a positive bias.” Winslow recently raised his price target to $2.40 and “sees potential for the stock to trade above $8 by 2015.”
