The Kapuskasing Phosphate Operations is the first ever phosphate mine in Canada and ranks as one of the highest grade phosphate mines in the world. Located about 40 km southwest of Kapuskasing in the Cargill Township, this mine has been developed to supply high quality, low cost phosphate rock to Agrium's Redwater, Alberta facility. The site employs over 200 permanent people in the open pit mine and in mill operations.
