Mine Supply Warehouse Supervisor Wes Champ remembers driving parts out to BC overnight to ensure the client had them when they needed them the next day. More than once. That’s the kind of service you get when dealing with this Saskatoon-born company, serving mining operations across Western Canada since 1966.
The Potash Company of America became the country’s first potash producer in Canada when Patience Lake began operations in 1958. At this time, mine development kicked into high gear across Saskatchewan’s Prairie Evaporite Formation. Duval Sulphur & Potash was building a potash mine at Cory (still in operation today by Nutrien) and expressed their frustration at the lack of regional mine supply companies to their lawyer, Regina-based Jim Balfour. Balfour took an idea to his longtime friend Warren Champ, and Saskatchewan’s first mine supply company was born.
