Anglo American to host Whitby and Hawsker drop-in sessions about Woodsmith project
The Woodsmith Mine is under construction just south of Whitby to mine polyhalite, a naturally occurring mineral that will be used as a fertiliser product across the globe.
The project is employing 1,400 people from the Whitby area out of a total workforce of 2,000 and contributed £305m to the regional economy in 2023, taking its total contribution to £1.5 billion since the mega project got under way.
