Vale SA, the world’s second-largest mining company, is “very concerned” about its $5.9 billion potash project in Argentina, where the government last week seized control of oil producer YPF SA.

Vale, based in Rio de Janeiro, will present a review of its Rio Colorado potash project in the Argentine province of Mendoza to its board next month, Chief Executive Officer Murilo Ferreira said in a conference call with analysts today.
