Jansen Stage 2 Potash Project, Canada

Location: Saskatchewan, Canada
Client: BHP
Steel Tonnage: Approx. 13,000 tonnes
Standards: Canadian CSA standards; main structural steel to U.S. standards

The Jansen Project is a major underground potash development located approximately 140 km east of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Shanghai Matsuo is supplying structural steel for Jansen Stage 2, with delivery expected to be completed in 2028.

The project involves kilometre-scale mine shafts with extremely demanding requirements for fabrication accuracy. The highly corrosive potash environment also places stringent demands on material selection, corrosion protection and overall quality control.

Through this project, Shanghai Matsuo is further strengthening its experience with Canadian standards and large-scale mining projects, while building a solid foundation for continued development in the Canadian structural steel market.
