This week’s newsletter has a limited number of articles, but they are all pretty interesting.  Some very positive announcements, as well as some tougher news as the industry works through this downturn and turns its attention to long-term success.  We’ve been hearing some rumors of additional projects (mine upgrades, modifications, and some in-basin mini-mine projects), so we’re very much looking forward to hearing the latest at the 9th Annual Frac Sand Supply & Logistics Conference (https://petroleumconnection.com/event/9th-annual-frac-sand-supply-logistics-conference/).  I hope you can join us!
