The liberation of Nineveh and Anbar opens the investment file of phosphate and sulfur
Baghdad / Fadia Al-Jawari
A member of the Economic Committee of the House of Representatives draws attention to the need to invest the wealth of sulfur and phosphate, which is acquired by the lands of Nineveh and Anbar provinces after the liberation of the two provinces from the occupation of Daheshi and the return of security to them, opening the horizons of investment for a wealth whose revenues can boost the resources of the state budget.
It is estimated that Iraq's reserves of crude sulfur is about 600 million tons, and the Mashraq field in Nineveh province, the largest deposition of sulfur in the world, accounting for 36% of the global reserve. Iraq also has a phosphate reserve of up to 10.8 billion tons and is the world's highest.
A member of the Committee on Economy and Investment, Fares Al-Fares in an interview with (the extent), what he describes as endeavors to invest Iraq's resources of sulfur phosphate, which is available in very large quantities in Anbar province, but stresses the need to contract with international investment companies specializing in this area, Locally, it is difficult, as government companies failed to keep Iraq a producer of sulfur and phosphate, and therefore emerged demands to invest these natural resources by the private sector and start the stage of advertising as opportunities for foreign investment.
"We want to move the investment file sites for the production of phosphate, after the liberation of the Iraqi territory of the organization is calling, as it is an additional resource for the treasury of countries," he will announce in a short period of transmission to one of the European companies to invest through the system of participation in production ratios. That the lack of funding allocated to the Ministry of Industry prevented the rehabilitation of local companies and start production, although Iraq's production of sulfur was more than one million tons per year and more than 3 million tons of phosphate. "The
Knight, that" the phosphate sector is one of the promising sectors Because of the size of the large reserve that it has Yeh, and ratios purity highest in the world, and there are dozens of European and American companies and even Arab, made to win contracts to invest these resources in Iraq, but we are keen to grant such files to companies solid has the expertise and capital. "
For his part, the head of the Geological Survey of the Ministry of Industry and Minerals, Safaauddin Fakhri, said in an interview with Al-Mada that "the Commission is continuing to update the map of the geological survey, and we have provided a detailed exploratory map of the Investment Authority to start the exploitation of natural resources in Iraq, "All the natural resources are on offer for investment now, after the demise of the previous laws that prevented this. However, there are problems that hinder the discovery process, including the lack of financial allocations, so that the Authority has not received the price of its exploration services so far, For the benefit of the government treasury by 3% Bits of material produced. "
Fakhri continues: "Reserves of natural resources are changing, sometimes it is going to increase if new quantities are added to it, and sometimes it is gradually depleted, but in the case of Iraq, it is increasing continuously because of the lack of investment in the optimal way, pointing out: Only 1.3 billion tons of phosphate, which is an increaseable proportion, but no company is able to invest such quantities, so it can be given to 100 investors.
He added that they can also contain different minerals and other materials that are not invested, which necessitates investing these resources in licensing rounds, as is the case in the oil sector. This may not be possible at present because of the presence of different minerals in the same area, The investment of these natural materials, sulfur, phosphate and high purity silica, can provide the treasury of the state between 4 and 6 billion dollars a year.
The Minister of Industry and Minerals, Mohamed Shi'a al-Sudani, has confirmed in a statement on the "importance of the private sector to play an important role in drawing up the strategy to promote the industrial reality and support the national economy," noting that "the existence of a plan to invest the most important local minerals, including sulfur and phosphate, Iraq is currently ranked first in the world in terms of the volume of sulfur reserves, and the second in terms of reserves of phosphate, noting that Iraq's reserves of free sulfur is the highest in terms of quantity worldwide, Iraq comes second after Morocco with phosphate, as well as abundant sources of limestone and silks Kaoline and bentonite clays and other minerals, entering in multiple industries, noting that the import ill-conceived programs contributed to the huge waste of money, so that Iraq is spent on goods imported about $ 221 billion between 2006 and 2014 ".
The phosphate deposits are located in the Akashat region of western Iraq, and include other minerals such as quartzite, dolomite, sand sand (sand) and heavy sand, a special type of sand that is present only in that region. The Iraqi reserves of phosphate are estimated at 5.75 billion tons.
Sulfur has been discovered in Iraq since the 1950s The investment was limited to the isolation of sulfur associated with oil in the sulfur extraction plant in Kirkuk and the capacity of 150 thousand tons annually, despite the fact that Iraq has a reserve of 600 million tons in the region of Mashraq in the south Mosul.
