Other Chemical and Fertilizer Mineral Mining

The NAICS code 212393 for Other Chemical and Fertilizer Mineral Mining encompasses a diverse range of mineral extraction and processing activities focused on chemical and fertilizer-related mineral resources. This category includes companies involved in mining, quarrying, and processing various chemical and fertilizer minerals beyond traditional mining classifications. The scope covers the extraction and initial processing of specialized minerals used in agricultural, industrial, and chemical production environments.

Federal contract awards under this NAICS code predominantly feature procurement of salt, road deicing materials, water treatment salt, and agricultural chemicals for various government agencies. Contract values typically range from $3,000 to $250,000, with most awards being firm fixed-price blanket purchase agreements or delivery orders. Frequently awarded entities include MJL Enterprises, Pala Wood Services Company, J.F. Allen Company, and Tambor Quimico. Common funding agencies are the Department of the Army Installation Management Command, Department of Veterans Affairs, Federal Bureau of Investigation, and Department of Agriculture. Set-aside designations frequently include total small business and service-disabled veteran-owned small business categories, with performance locations primarily in the northeastern and southwestern United States.

While the provided materials do not include specific federal contract opportunities, the existing contract awards suggest ongoing requirements for road salt, fertilizers, pesticides, and chemical treatment materials across multiple federal installations. These procurement needs appear consistent with supporting winter maintenance operations, agricultural research, and facility management across various government agencies' geographic locations and operational requirements.
