en.Wedoany.com Reported - Aguia Resources has obtained authorization from the Brazilian Ministry of Agriculture (MAPA) to begin the commercialization and sale of its phosphate fertilizer product, Pampafos.

This approval means Aguia can officially position Pampafos as a regional phosphorus source for southern Brazil. MAPA's authorization reinforces the company's commercial progress and supports the launch of a sales campaign aimed at reducing dependence on imported products and providing a more resilient local supply chain for the agricultural sector.

This commercial authorization follows Aguia's receipt of an operating license from the Rio Grande do Sul state environmental agency (FEPAM) in early May 2026. Upon receiving the license, the company immediately initiated mining and transportation activities related to the project.

Aguia Resources Managing Director Tim Hosking stated that the commercial approval for Pampafos represents a significant milestone for the company, enabling the commercial team to begin product promotion with deliveries planned for the second half of 2026. The company has also launched a sales campaign requiring payment by July 8, 2026, with a commitment to complete delivery by December 31, 2026. Hosking indicated that this campaign should accelerate the company's free cash flow generation by July 2026.

As part of its commercial strategy, Aguia is offering a pre-sale discount of up to 15% for customers who pay before July 8, 2026, with delivery scheduled for the second half of 2026. The Pampafos product contains 12% phosphorus pentoxide, with a cash payment price set at US$222 per ton. The company stated that analysts have noted the product's cost advantage over imported alternatives, with estimated savings of 20% to 40% compared to other market prices.

Aguia emphasized that Pampafos can provide a crucial local phosphorus source for the key agricultural region of southern Brazil. The company pointed out that since early 2026, supply through the Port of Rio Grande has been constrained, and coupled with the logistical impact of the Strait of Hormuz closure, the strategic importance of having a regional phosphorus source for farmers, distributors, and the fertilizer supply chain has become increasingly evident.

Brazil is one of the world's largest agricultural consumers, and its agricultural production is highly dependent on imported fertilizers. The Pampafos project helps diversify supply and reduce exposure to international logistical disruptions. The company believes its product will offer a localized, competitive, and more resilient alternative to price volatility and global trade restrictions.

Aguia Resources is a multi-commodity company listed on the Australian Securities Exchange, with pre-production stage phosphate projects in Brazil and gold assets in Colombia. With MAPA's authorization and the launch of Pampafos commercial activities, the company enters a critical phase of its revenue generation strategy in Brazil. If the campaign can convert anticipated demand into actual sales, Pampafos could become a significant cash flow source for Aguia in 2026, while also helping to strengthen local fertilizer supply for the Brazilian agricultural market.
