I was on the ole PROSPECTOR, Running shuttle Trinidad and Suriname. Cargo was Alumina, Abrisive or bauxite from Suriname to Trinidad and diesel and fuel back from TT til Suriname

Probably. Caustic soda is fundamental in turning bauxite (aluminium ore) into alumina (aliminium oxide).

PROSPECTOR II is fully employed in running between bauxite/alumina facilties in Brazil, Surinam, Jamaica, USA and Canada.

David,thanks, but is she still employed in that way?

Still classed by LR for carriage of caustic soda in the wing tanks.

Is she still being used to carry caustic soda?
