First Phosphate Corp (CSE: PHOS) already has production in mind when it comes to its properties in the Saguenay-Lac-St-jean region of Quebec. The firm this morning revealed it has entered into a non-binding memorandum of understanding to secure the supply of sulfuric acid, which would be used in future industrial facilities.
The MOU, entered into with NorFalco, a division of Glencore Canada, outlines that First Phosphate will obtain the sulfuric acid required for its future phosphoric acid and other industrial facilities from the Glencore subsidiary.
Sulfuric acid is a key ingredient for the production of phosphoric acid. First Phosphate, along with its previously announced partner Prayon Technologies SA, is currently working towards establishing a phosphoric acid facility at the Port of Saguenay in Quebec. The plant is a key component in the development of a localized LFP battery supply chain.
The two parties are to work together to come to a definitive supply agreement.
“This agreement is a significant first step in what we expect to be a meaningful ongoing supply relationship. An agreement with NorFalco secures a key and often overlooked raw material from a major local supplier for the future development and growth of First Phosphate’s industrial activities,” commented CEO John Passalacqua.
First Phosphate last traded at $0.43 on the CSE.
