Description:	Since 2011 TERRATIVA MINERAIS screened locations close to agricultural regions from the Cerrado and with favourable geology & logistics, for syenite rock with up to 14.5% potash content and also high content of other macronutrients. This rocks are uncommon, but Terrativa was able to locate them in key areas by using modern geological tools. Actually Embrapa is running laboratory and agronomic efficiency tests to certify TERRATIVA rock powder products. Tests will be finished in Q1-2015;. TERRATIVA has several ultrapotassic igneous rocks projects in different regions of Brazil. This paper presents the Serra das Araras, Santa Bárbara and Baluarte projects, all located in the Brazilian Cerrado.
