Whitemud Resources is committed to becoming the leading manufacturer and supplier of metakaolin for the North American concrete industry.
Whitemud was founded in 2002, inspired by the discovery of a unique manufacturing process that would allow for the economic use of metakaolin as an additive to concrete.
Sold under the name WhitemudMK , our metakaolin product provides substantial value to customers and stands to revolutionize the concrete industry; by replacing up to 20% of cement with WhitemudMK customers can enhance the strength and durability of concrete, while at the same time reduce costs (disclaimer).
Whitemud Resources has secured leases for one of the largest deposits of kaolin in North America near Wood Mountain in southern Saskatchewan, 165 kilometres southwest of Regina, and 40 kilometres north of the U.S. border.
The construction of a 175,000-tonne-per-year metakaolin processing plant began in the fall of 2006 and was completed in December 2007. Commercial sales commenced across North America in 2008 and we are exploring potential export markets.
Whitemud's head office is located in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. We are a Canadian-based company that trades on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol WMK.
