    I am wondering which explorer would be the candidate?
    There is no one in Canada other Western Potash which does not have much. Others are just speculative.

    The best explorer (grade & size) is ELM in the world atm.

    K+S still has eye on M&A opportunities in potash

    German fertilizer producer K+S AG (SDFG.DE) remains on the lookout for acquisitions while it is integrating its latest takeover in Canada, the group's chief executive said on Thursday

    "If a good opportunity arises (in the potash market) we will assess it. But we have to concentrate very much on Potash One," CEO Norbert Steiner told Reuters Insider TV.

    K+S, whose domestic potash reserves will be depleted in about four decades, in November agreed to buy the Canadian holder of mining licenses Potash One (KCL.TO) and plans to invest about $2.5 billion in developing its projects.

    Steiner also shrugged off uncertainty over whether Russia's Andrei Melnichenko and his EuroChem fertilizer group will divest their stake in K+S after talks over a joint mine developing project failed.

    "In that case our free float would rise and life at K+S would go on as before," the CEO said.

    There was no need to look for a new investor, he added.

    K+S has said that Melnichenko holds slightly less than 14 percent in K+S.
