The Encanto Potash Corporation is reporting their Preliminary Economic Assessment for the Muskowekwan First Nation mine project.

The assessment is recommending solution mining for the project instead of traditional conventional or shaft mining.

Encanto President Jim Walchuk says less manpower is required for solution mining because water is used to bring potash to the surface.

Encanto estimates 1000 workers will be needed for the construction phase.
