Wednesday, September 6, 2023

Prayon has begun assessing product quality and process feasibility through pilot testing of the First Phosphate rock concentrate to determine the optimal process parameters for MGA production.

Key Points: 
  • Prayon has begun assessing product quality and process feasibility through pilot testing of the First Phosphate rock concentrate to determine the optimal process parameters for MGA production.
  • The main results of the MGA tests are summarized below:
    The phosphate rock concentrate can be considered a high-grade igneous rock with about 40.6% P2O5 content.
  • The general impurity content is low, especially chlorine (~630 ppm) compared to other rock concentrates mined from the same region.
  • The operation of the pilot plant using this phosphate rock was stable and quite easily operable in the CPP process route.

First Phosphate Receives Report from Queen's University Pufahl Research Group Suggesting that the Lac à l'Orignal Deposit is a Unique and Highly Probable ESG-Compliant Source of North American Phosphate for the LFP Battery Industry

The Lac à l'Orignal deposit is a promising viable source of P for the LFP battery market.

Key Points: 
  • The Lac à l'Orignal deposit is a promising viable source of P for the LFP battery market.
  • Such low concentrations of deleterious trace elements and sulfide minerals make the Lac à l'Orignal deposit an attractive and highly probable ESG-compliant source of North American P for the LFP battery industry.
  • Anorthosite is an igneous rock that is a new and sought-after source of phosphate for the North American LFP market.
  • Lac à l'Orignal is part of the Lac-Saint-Jean Anorthosite Complex, Québec, which is the largest anorthosite complex in the world.

In summary, a total of 58 samples were taken at the Arctic Fox Project.

Key Points: 
  • In summary, a total of 58 samples were taken at the Arctic Fox Project.
  • The Arctic Fox Project is located circa 185 km by road north-west of Alice Springs in the Northern Territory (refer Figure 2).
  • The technical team believe the style mineralization being targeted within the Artic Fox Project is comparable to that apparent at Nolan's Bore.
  • Mineralization on any other properties referred to herein is not necessarily indicative of mineralization on the Arctic Fox and Isbjorn Properties.

VR receives new over-limit geochemical data from Hole HK22-013 and increases PMREO content to 21.1% of TREO at Hecla-Kilmer in Northern Ontario

Retrieved on: 
Tuesday, November 29, 2022

Hole HK22-13 ended in high grade mineralization: 15 m @ 2.22% TREO with 21.3% PMREO.

Key Points: 
  • Hole HK22-13 ended in high grade mineralization: 15 m @ 2.22% TREO with 21.3% PMREO.
  • As such, the hole was extended in the recent drill program, and Hole HK22-013ext was completed to 504 m (see Figure 1).
  • Core photo and QEMSCAN image showing the REE mineralogy of the mineralization immediately below and adjacent to the drill collar for Hole 13.
  • Figure 1 shows the strong correlation among all the individual permanent magnet rare earth elements within the TREO mineralization at Hecla-Kilmer.

Monday, January 24, 2022

In the study evaluating the effectiveness of Terreplenish, Solutions in the Land verified that the silt loam soil chosen for the Terreplenish Corn Trial 2021 had an excellent fertility level.

Key Points: 
  • In the study evaluating the effectiveness of Terreplenish, Solutions in the Land verified that the silt loam soil chosen for the Terreplenish Corn Trial 2021 had an excellent fertility level.
  • DeKalb 68-69 corn seed was planted across the plots using the following soil preparation methods (Terreplenish abbreviated at TP):
    Plot 2 - Preplant 150 lbs.
  • In a conclusionary statement written by the Solutions in the Land consultants they noted, "Clearly the addition of Terreplenish provides a 45-60 lbs.
  • of reduced phosphorous indicating that the PSB's (phosphorous solubilizing bacteria) in Terreplenish effectively free more than 15 lbs.

Plato Gold Initiates Additional Sampling at the Good Hope Niobium Project

Retrieved on: 
Wednesday, August 25, 2021

Exploration planning and ongoing review of all historical data indicated that additional sampling of the drill core was warranted.

Key Points: 
  • Exploration planning and ongoing review of all historical data indicated that additional sampling of the drill core was warranted.
  • The Good Hope Property is a discrete carbonatite complex located northwest of the Prairie Lake Carbonatite Complex.
  • The Good Hope carbonatites are host to niobium mineralization which occurs principally as pyrochlore-apatite clasts within a carbonatite breccia.
  • The Good Hope Niobium Project consists of approximately 5,146 hectares in Killala Lake Area and Cairngorm Lake Area Townships, near Marathon Ontario with the primary target being niobium.
