ABOUT US
Gypsum Supplies operates on Lake Hillman near the town of Kalannie, in the Shire of Dalwallinu, where our family run operation has been supplying gypsum since 1978 to both the industrial and agricultural markets. Recently we have also commenced loading from our newest pit on Lake Cowcowing, 65km NE of Dowerin.
Naturally occurring lake gypsum has a medium particle size, and unlike synthetic gypsum, it is not subject to rapid leaching from the soil profile and has superior spreading characteristics.
Gypsum is used in the agricultural industry for several different reasons. Gypsum is used as a low cost non-acidifying form of sulphur. Gypsum can improve soil structure on heavy dispersive clays by making the soil aggregates more stable (Jarvis R, 2000). Gypsum has also be found to help with the effects of aluminium toxicity on the wodgil soils of the Eastern Wheatbelt.

Due to the high returns from growing canola over recent years, demand for gypsum as a low-cost form of sulphur has been strong.
