Efficiency in Operation

At AMI Silica, our environmental impact is an important consideration in the decision-making process. The facility at Mayerthorpe, AB will incorporate industry-leading water recycling equipment to reduce water requirements and minimize the impact on the community and infrastructure.

AMI Silica will also utilize efficient sand-drying systems with evaporative cooling to further reduce impact on local utility infrastructure.

No Wasted Sand

AMI Silica’s objective is to market 100% of the sand produced from the facility into the industrial, construction and oil & gas sectors. This will keep our environmental footprint low, while increasing our contribution to the provincial and local economies.

In keeping with our integrity-first, safety focused and responsive results-driven culture, AMI Silica prioritizes relationships with communities where we operate and relationships with our employees, contractors and customers to deliver value to our investors and shareholders
