To provide the building blocks of 21st century technology, Saskatchewan releases Critical Mineral Strategy

Critical minerals, the crucial ingredients for everything from cellphones to electric vehicles, are all the rage right now. And in a global race, Saskatchewan is staking its claim, figuratively and literally, in the development of many of these critical minerals.

For two days, SaskPower held open house session in Estevan about future projects planned for the area, including a 650 megawatt bi-directional power line connecting to the United States, possibly two nuclear reactors, and a 100 megawatt solar farm. SaskPower officials also spoke of an additional 3,000 megawatts of wind and solar power to be constructed by 2035. (Watch for a detailed story on Wednesday)
The next day, on March 25, SaskPower’s “Where Your Power Comes From” web page listed just how much power was produced by wind. And it wasn’t much.

That certainly is the case for Steve Halabura, CEO and founder of Saskatchewan-based Buffalo Potash, a startup that’s seeking to apply oilfield techniques and technology to small modular potash development.
