The latest announcement is out from First Phosphate Corp. ( (TSE:PHOS) ).
First Phosphate Corp. has filed its Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) Technical Report for the Bégin-Lamarche Phosphate Project in Quebec. The report, dated January 17, 2025, outlines a potentially viable case for open pit mining, projecting an annual production of 900,000 tonnes of phosphate concentrate and 380,000 tonnes of magnetite over a 23-year mine life. The project boasts strong financial metrics, including a pre-tax NPV of $2.1 billion and an IRR of 37.1%. It benefits from excellent infrastructure and logistics, including road access and proximity to the Port of Saguenay. However, the PEA is preliminary, and success depends on securing necessary consents and permits.
