CHAKETMA PHOSPHATE PROJECT
Chaketma Phosphate Project – 100% CPSA
(International arbitration and enforcement in Tunisia confirmed Celamin’s 51% interest in CPSA and awarded US$4m in damages)
Tenement, Location and Access
The Chaketma permit is located 210 km south-west of Tunis by road. The bulk of the phosphate is located at the base of a massive limestone unit close to the top of a high segmented plateau, which rises approximately 600m above the valley floor. This plateau extends for approximately 12 kilometres from north to south, and from 900 in 1,200 metres width.
The plateau is divided into distinct domains or prospects by a series of normal faults. The Chaketma Phosphate Project is located 35km from the nearest railhead which connects to the Port of Goulette/Rades for export. Tunisia is a major phosphate producer and exporter, and has existing infrastructure including extensive road, rail and energy networks.
