About Granco Minerals
Our purpose is to produce quality Progyp™Granco Minerals Inc. in Petersburg, Virginia, is an agribusiness company that has provided products and services to the agricultural industry for many years. We’re responsible for all agricultural, turf, landscape, and soil related sales and marketing of synthetic gypsum produced by DuPont at their James River facility in Richmond, Virginia. Since Progyp™ is effective for crop and vegetable production and for applications in turf, landscape, lawn & garden, soils, and sustainable agriculture, we’re pushing to make Progyp™ a recognized soil and plant fertility product.

The origin and quality of gypsum is especially important. It’s derived from a state-of-the-art synthetic gypsum operation, which results in the production of high purity gypsum available for crop, turf, landscape, lawn, garden, and soil applications. Gypsum is a sulfate mineral composed of calcium sulfate dihydrate with the chemical formula CaSO4•2H2O, and it’s a source of calcium and sulfate sulfur nutrients.
