One of the priorities of EuroChem's development strategy is to increase the capacity for the extraction and sale of potassium. The construction of mines and processing plants is being carried out in the Volgograd Region (EuroChem-VolgaKaliy, the Gremyachinskoye deposit) and the Perm Territory (the Usolsky potash plant, the Verkhnekamskoye deposit).

There are no deposits under development that are analogous to Gremyachinsky, therefore, in the design and construction of the underground and surface complexes of Gremyachinsky GOK, advanced technologies developed specifically for EuroChem-VolgaKaliy were used to minimize the impact on the environment, increase industrial safety and ensure high production performance in mining and processing ore at the processing plant.

New projects in Russia being developed by EuroChem will make the company the first in Russia and the fourth in the world to produce the entire range of mineral fertilizers – potash, nitrogen and phosphorus.
