About Us
NewTech Minerals is a mineral based fertiliser company headquartered in the Mid North of South Australia. We specialise in providing custom soil conditioner formulations, as well as consulting on holistic plant nutrition, soil health, livestock health, and how to reduce synthetic chemical use.
Our private mine located in the Barossa Valley produces potassium silicate and reactive soft rock phosphate which we crush on-site to compose the core components of the NewTech custom blends, seed coatings, fertiliser enhancers, and livestock nutrition supplements.
NewTech Minerals also supplies high quality chelated liquid fertilisers and bio-stimulants (seaweed, fish, humates, fulvates, worm extracts) which we use in our program to improve your yield, crop quality, crop health, soil health, while reducing the incidence of pests and diseases without the use of traditional chemicals.

Agricultural Consultant
Raised on a six-generation farm in South Australia, I bring a deep connection with the land to my role at NewTech Minerals. My academic background includes a Bachelor's degree in Geology and Soil Science (2020) and a Certificate III in Conservation and Landscape Management (2021). Furthering my knowledge, I also attended the RCS Farming and Grazing School in 2022 and completed the AgPath Composting Course with Dr. Mary Cole in 2023.
Engaging with the Morialta BioLink Landcare Group since 2018 and the Yacka-Moorundie Landcare Group since 2020, I'm committed to community and environmental stewardship.
Passionate about soil health and its impact on human and planetary well-being, I focus on the holistic context, striving for regenerative solutions in farming systems. My dedication to fostering regenerative practices extends from personal pursuits to professional endeavors, contributing to a sustainable and healthier future.
