Westonia Magnesite

Westonia Magnesite A fertiliser that neutralises acid soils (40% neutralising) as well as Magnesium 12%, Fe 7%, Ca 4% & many trace elements such as Cu, Co, Mn, Zn, K, P etc.

HISTORY

I purchased this lease from John and Malcolm Rutherford of Merredin and Narembeen in 1997. Malcolm had a farm in Narembeen and had been applying this product to neutralise his soils for over a decade with fabulous results. The quarry is located in Westonia, where the Gold Fields meet the Wheatbelt. As an experienced Geologist I grade controlled the deposit on a 10x10m spacing and assayed

for Magnesium to calculate the dimensions of the deposit. I have been crushing, screening and selling this product to wheatbelt farmers for 17 years with excellent results. CURRENT ASSAYS: ALS MALAGA

Current Assays (October 2015) prove the grade is still +12% Magnesium, 7% Iron, 4% Calcium, with abundant trace elements such as Copper, Zinc, Manganese, Potassium and Cobalt etc. SPECIFICATIONS

Currently crushed to a maximum 19mm with 65% passing 1mm. Finer crush sizes are available upon request, however WILL incur a higher cost. SUITABILITY

This product is best for intermediate to sandy soils which are depleted in Magnesium due to cropping. Farming is like mineral mining for human consumption. Every grain produced by farmers extracts minerals from the soil. Intermediate to sand soils are generally lower in Magnesium abundance to start with, hence after years of cropping are highly likely to be deficient in Magnesium. Soil tests will show this. WHY IS MAGNESIUM IMPORTANT? The Chlorophyll molecule is responsible for the growth of plants, much like blood for animals. It is essential for healthy plant growth! The Chlorophyll molecule has a Magnesium atom at it's core. This is surrounded by 4 nitrogen's and then a host of Carbon Hydrogen and Oxygen. Without magnesium NOTHING will grow! It cannot be replaced by any other mineral. It is a high quality soil and not a chemical fertiliser therefore application rates are higher generally between 1 tonne to the acre to 1 tonne to the hectare. Higher application rates will provide greater longevity. This product will not wash out of the soils like a water based fertiliser. NEUTRALISING VALUE

Westonia Magnesite has a pH of 9.4 and a neutralising value of 30%

Sandy Soils need Magnesium
the BEST place to get it is Westonia
CLOSEST - CHEAPEST & HIGHEST GRADE
THE SCIENCE
Magnesium is at the middle of the chlorophyll molecule.
CHLOROPHYLL IS like BLOOD FOR PLANTS
check the image from GOOGLE
Chlorophyll is the green stuff in plants that makes plants grow.
When you crop you are taking the magnesium out of the soil
So just the wheat 1 tonne of crop = 1kg of Magnesium out of the ground. But then there is all of the green stuff in the plant that converts the suns light into energy. That is sucking the magnesium out of the ground too.
FARMING IS MINERAL MINING FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION
Sandy and gravelly granite soils dont have much magnesium to start with so after years of cropping they are gonna be depleted in MAGNESIUM
GET SOME FROM WESTONIA
Magnesium is also alkaline, PH = 9.4 NV approx = 40%.
So it fertilise's chlorophyll and neutralises the soil as well Westonia Magnesite AGMAG
SANDY Gravelly Granite SOILS NEED IT!
Yep and they need nitrogen
and they need
RAIN!

Sandy Soils drive you nuts
Cos sandy soils aint got no gutz
they be low on magnesium from day 1
and cropping rips magnesium out with every tonne
What to do what to do?
Westonia Magnesium has the best Magnesium in the wheatbelt for you
nice and close freshly crushed
Oxidising fertilising neutralising all day long and night time too
and adding tonnes of Magnesium and trace elements is the thing to do
lots of happy customers singing getting results
Call Edd now - you need it like the nuts need the bolts
yep a pretty sad poem my ratings are as follows
Poetry = 0 but Magnesium = 100%

21/02/2020

I was ringing all of my customers from last year to see how they went. Hopefully 4 or so i diddnt speak to will get back to me, results wise Last year was a tough one
But of the paddocks where they put the Westonia Magnesite
70% had a higher yield 15% reported an increase in the crop weight and one bloke in Merredin said i put it on the worst paddock and i got the best yield (2t crop).
A Bloody unreal result overall!

Magnesium is so very important for life of plants and animals.

Westonia Magnesite the highest grade source of Magnesium in the Wheat Belt.

Why dont chemical companies have a magnesium fertiliser
Because magnesium is alkaline and fertilisers are acidic.

INCOMPATIBLE!

Need MAGNESIUM call me, Edd on 0428467766

Calcium sea shells & beach sand are not a substitute for magnesium. There is no substitute

WESTONIA MAGNESITE to Fertilise Neutralise and Nourish your paddocks.

So I hope you are all still on holidays and no one reads my post. I Love holidays!!!!

Agmag - (a new name i just made up and registered) Agricultural Magnesium!
Westonia Magnesite Magnesium and trace elements in clay to fertilise neutralise and boost protein!
It is the Agmag capital of the wheatbelt!

OH hell,..........So you bought the beach sand ..........and now your paddocks are bathing in it........... how did that work out for you?....... Not that good huh!
it's because Beach sand is made up little bits of seashells, oxidised for many years. and they are hard!
When something is oxidising it is reactive when something is oxidised like beachsand it isnt gunna react so much anymore because the reaction has already happened. No more wave actions to smash it up!

Sure do the crappy lab test - stick it into a beaker with acid and swirl it around and it does stuff blah blah blah
but is that how it works in the ground?....
nope no way ..........Tell em their dreamin (the castle),
All it is is a little bit of oxidised seashell sitting in your paddock that you have trucked in from LANCELIN!

Westonia Magnesite Agmag is clay based. it is gonna eventually break down to dust. and while it is breaking down in your dirt it is reacting, oxidising and doing its thing in the ground.

So Magnesium is just super really really important for plants and animals
but hey.....................no one talks about it but me and the pommie attenborough bloke.

The reason is because NPK fertilisers are acid and magnesium is alkaline - they just dont go together!
And you do need heaps of NPK - yes you do.

Westonia Magnesium Agmag is crushed and screened and therefore when you get it it is oxidising in your ground. It is reactive. It keeps breaking down on your paddock for years 40% NV year after year silently working in your paddock breaking down into smaller and smaller fragments of clay each of which has >13% magnesium 7% iron and 4% calcium with a whole bunch of trace elements like copper zinc cobalt manganese etc. Fertilise and neutralise and because the [lant has magnesium it can go on to build up protein whilst growing.

Heaps of local farming legends use it why not give it a try and see why! $16.50 ex the Westonia pit GST incl.

that is when you finally get back to work!

So MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL! Have an epic break and keep cool

Westonia Magnesite Neutralises and Fertilises and helps ensure maximum Protein in your crop. Heres a new pile ready to go out Lotsa people are wasting fuel to get Lime BEACH SAND which is oxidised shell fragments

leave it on the beach!
Come n get some freshly crushed and screened Magnesium rich clay $16.50/t GST incl from Westonia no queue's short haul.

Lime (BEACH SAND) has the outside oxidised so it is low reactive, grind it and it will probably work better - but all you get is Calcium - ok if you are growing olives..not much else though

Westonia Magnesite has average 13% Magnesium
4- 5% Calcium, Iron and trace elements like Copper Zinc Cobalt Potassium Manganese etc ring me for a list of the goodies all wrapped up in a clay.

So jeez, it is hot and dusty
and ive been driving the D1 (technical term for a shovel)
So everything is hot!
the hammer, the spanner, the welder, the D1 and especially the FRESHLY CRUSHED AND SCREENED WESTONIA MAGNESITE
13% magnesium 4% Calcium 7% iron and loads of trace elements like Zinc Copper Manganese Cobalt Molybdenum etc etc etc ring me and i will send a data sheet
0429467766

So the summit fertiliser web page says if you put beach sand (or lime sand "oooh the technical term") onto your paddocks that already have low low Magnesium then the calcium tends to further restrict access to the Magnesium.

YOU GOTTA BE DEVVO at this (devastated!)

So youve pulled lots of Magnesium out of the soil with the crop and then the calcium further restricts access to the little bit magnesium left. What a MEGGA DUD!

AND THEN

there is the issue that blokes have been telling me about for a couple of years, that the beach sand doesnt mix into the soil very well, it kind of furrows on top SMMMEEEGGGGA DUD!

So why not come to Westonia and get some crushed and screened high magnesium clay.Just $16.50/tonne GST include ....... Give your paddocks the local and natural loving that they deserve to fertilise and neutralise & keep em healthy for future generations.

So beach sand really is good for something. - Yair - TRUE
when its a hot day and you stay in the cool cool indian ocean for ages until your cold then you jump onto your towel on the hot hot beach sand. Now thats good!
