September 28, 2018 –Vancouver, BC, Canada. – Select Sands Corp. (“Select Sands” or the “Company”) (TSXV: SNS | OTCQX: SLSDF) has announced that it will be halting its previously announced Independence expansion project due to a period of softer demand for Northern White silica/fracking sand.
The expansion project will be under regular review and progress will resume once demand reaches appropriate levels. The Company will remain fully operational during the interim period, with a nameplate capacity of 600,000 tons per year of premium Northern White silica.
Zig Vitols, President and CEO, commented: “We feel it is prudent to coincide the timing of the expansion project and its completion with increased basin activity and proppant demand. Select Sands is committed to adding new business and pursuing opportunities to generate value for shareholders.”
