(News - Market indicators) is pleased to announce that it has received a $2,000,000 order from Chemco Inc. of Saint-Augustin-de-Desmaures, Quebec for magnetite to be used for the production of ferric sulphate for water treatment plants. As part of this agreement, Chemco will be working with Micrex on the sale of magnetite for this specialized market throughout eastern Canada and northeastern United States.
