魁北克省萨格奈–(Newsfile Corp. – 2023年3月20日) – First Phosphate Corp. (CSE: PHOS) (FSE: KD0) (“First Phosphate”或“本公司”)欣然宣布，本公司得到了对其位于加拿大魁北克省萨格奈-拉克-圣让地区的Lac à l’Orignal项目区的矿化物冶金测试工作的结果。冶金测试工作由独立实验室 SGS Canada Inc.（位于魁北克省魁北克市）完成，日期为2023年3月13日。报告全文见：https://firstphosphate.com/projects/assets。
批量试验和锁定循环试验的结果用于编制拟议流程的总体质量平衡。总体质量平衡显示，该流程可回收91.4%的磷灰石，精矿中的P2O5含量为40.2%。
对钛铁矿和磁铁矿流进行的初步提纯测试工作中钛铁矿精矿中的二氧化钛品位达到39.3%，磁铁矿精矿的铁品位达到69.0%（99.2%的Fe2O3）。建议开展进一步的测试工作，以优化钛铁矿回路。
First Phosphate总裁Peter Kent表示，“我们对高纯度磷灰石的回收结果感到满意，这有可能使我们生产出大量用于生产低磷酸盐电池的纯磷酸。我们对钛铁矿的二次回收同样重要，因为对钛铁矿进行升级后，我们可以生产出硫酸铁，这是生产低磷酸盐电池所需的另一种重要成分。磁铁矿仍具有潜在的三级回收价值。我们现在能够提前着手建立选矿试验工厂。”
Forward-Looking Information and Cautionary Statements
Certain information in this news release constitutes forward-looking statements under applicable securities laws. Any statements that are contained in this news release that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are often identified by terms such as “may”, “should”, “anticipate”, “expect”, “potential”, “believe”, “intend” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements in this news release include statements relating to: the Company’s commitment to producing high purity phosphate materials at full ESG standard under a low carbon footprint; the Company’s plans to integrate directly into the functions of certain major North American LFP Battery producers; the Company’s proposed development of its land claims in the region of Saguenay-Lac-St-Jean, Quebec; the availability of the metallurgical testwork report on the Company’s website; the estimated recovery rates contained in the report and the potential of such recovery rates in allowing the Company to create a large amount of purified phosphoric acid and iron sulphate, both used in the production of LFP batteries; the potential recovery of magnetite as a potential tertiary recovery of value; and the Company’s plans, if any, to expand or carryout its metallurgical programs.
Forward-looking information in this press release are based on certain assumptions and expected future events, namely: the Company’s ability to producing high purity phosphate materials at full ESG standard under a low carbon footprint; the Company’s ability to integrate directly into the functions of certain major North American LFP Battery producers; the Company’s ability to develop its land claims in the region of Saguenay-Lac-St-Jean, Quebec; the ability of the Company to provide the metallurgical testwork report on the Company’s website; the Company’s ability to meet and exceed the stated recovery rates to allow the Company to create a large amount of purified phosphoric acid and iron sulphate; the Company’s ability to carry out its recovery of magnetite as a tertiary recovery of value; and the Company’s ability to accomplish its plans, if any, with respect to its metallurgical programs or the expansion thereof.
These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements, including but not limited to: the Company’s inability to produce high purity phosphate materials at full ESG standard under a low carbon footprint; the Company’s inability to integrate directly into the functions of certain major North American LFP Battery producers; the Company’s inability to develop its land claims in the region of Saguenay-Lac-St-Jean, Quebec; the inability of the Company to provide the metallurgical testwork report on the Company’s website; the Company’s inability to meet and exceed the stated recovery rates to allow the Company to create a large amount of purified phosphoric acid and iron sulphate; the Company’s inability to carry out its recovery of magnetite as a tertiary recovery of value; and the Company’s inability to accomplish its plans, if any, with respect to its metallurgical programs or the expansion thereof.
Readers are cautioned that the foregoing list is not exhaustive. Readers are further cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, as there can be no assurance that the plans, intentions or expectations upon which they are placed will occur. Such information, although considered reasonable by management at the time of preparation, may prove to be incorrect and actual results may differ materially from those anticipated.
