A FIRM behind a £1.5 billion mine plan is holding public exhibitions over its revised proposals.
Sirius Minerals wants to extract millions of tonnes of the fertiliser polyhalite from under the North York Moors National Park at Sneaton, near Whitby.
Bosses say the York Potash project could create about 1,000 jobs.
The company will submit a planning application to the North York Moors National Park Authority and applications for transport operations, Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council and the North York Moors National Park Authority.
The project stalled last year when bosses deferred sending plans to the National Park to address environmental concerns.
The firm already has agreements to send polyhalite to companies in China, Latin America, the US and Africa.
Exhibitions will be at Bede Hall, Sneaton Castle, Whitby, today from 2pm-7pm; Sleights Village Hall, tomorrow, 10am- 3pm; Egton Village Hall, Tuesday, 2pm-7pm; Moorsholm Memorial Hall, near Guisborough, Thursday, 2pm-7pm; Sunnyfield House, Guisborough, next Saturday, 1pm-5pm; Tuned In, Redcar, Saturday, July 19, 10am-3pm.
