1.0 Executive Summary
1.1 Introduction
This Technical Report Summary was prepared by P&E Mining Consultants Inc. (“P&E”) at the request of Mr. John Passalacqua, CEO of First Phosphate Corp. (“First Phosphate”), a public company registered in British Columbia, Canada and listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange (stock ticker “PHOS”).
In June 2022, First Phosphate commissioned P&E Mining Consultants of Brampton, Ontario, Canada to complete a National Instrument (“NI”) 43-101 Technical Report and Initial Mineral Resource Estimate (the “Report”) on the Lac Orignal Deposit (the “Deposit”) of the Lac Orignal Property (the “Property” or the “Project”).
On September 14, 2022, First Phosphate announced the completion of its primary phosphate land acquisition strategy, having fully purchased under full title all existing claims that it had under option from the third parties, including the Lac Orignal Property.
In May 2023, P&E Mining Consultants was retained by First Phosphate to prepare an independent Technical Report Summary on the Lac Orignal Project. The purpose of this Technical Report Summary is to support the disclosure of a Mineral Resource estimates for the Lac Orignal Project. This Technical Report Summary conforms to United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Modernized Property Disclosure Requirements for Mining Registrants as described in Subpart 229.1300 of Regulation S-K, Disclosure by Registrants Engaged in Mining Operations (S-K 1300) and Item 601 (b)(96) Technical Report Summary.
The Property is located 85 km northeast of the City of Saguenay, Québec, Canada and is centered approximately at longitude 70° 34’ 41” W and latitude 49° 04’ 28” N (UTM NAD83 Zone 19N coordinates: 384,750 m E and 5,436,930 m N).
1.2 Property Description
The Lac Orignal Property is located 82 km north-northeast of the City of Saguenay, Québec. The Property is centered approximately on the Lac Orignal Deposit at longitude 70° 34’ 41” W and latitude 49° 04’ 28” N (UTM NAD83 Zone 19N coordinates: 384,750 m E and 5,436,930 m N). The Lac Orignal Property consists of 1,417 CDC claims with a total area of 78,141 ha on NTS sheets 22D10, 22D14, 22D15, 22D16, 22E01, 22E02 and 22E03.

1.3 Accessibility, Climate, Local Resources, Infrastructure AND Physiography
The Lac Orignal region is easily accessible from the City of Saguenay by Provincial Road 172 to logging road chemin de la Zec Martin-Valin, which crosses the Property and is maintained
year-round by logging companies. At km 81.5 on this road, a secondary logging trail goes northwest for 3.5 km to the Lac Orignal Deposit area. Many secondary logging roads can be utilized to access various parts of the Property.
The Property is located within the unorganized territory of Mont-Valin with a population of five people. A small inn, Auberge 31, at km 31 of the main logging road, can accommodate workers. There are several logging camps and outfitters along the road to the Property.
The Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean region has a population of 280,000 inhabitants (2021). The region has an extensive industrial, agricultural, forestry and tourist industries, including a significant hydro-electric system (owned by Rio Tinto) to produce electricity for the aluminum production and transformation industries. The mining operations are mainly aggregate and dimensional stone quarries. The only metallic mine in the region is the Niobec Mine (niobium) operated by Magris Resources, which is located near Saguenay. The University of Québec in Chicoutimi houses a well-known geological department. The City of Saguenay can provide extensive contractor services and supplies within 100 km from the Project. The Saguenay region has a humid continental-type climate that is milder than that of the surrounding Canadian Shield and similar to that of the St. Lawrence Lowlands. Located just above the 49th parallel, the region has a very low average temperature (2.3°C), which results from significant temperature variations involving very cold winters (average −21.1°C in January) and relatively cool summers (24.1°C on average in July).
The main infrastructure at the site is the access roads. The Property is large enough to support mining operations, including infrastructure, processing facilities, waste dumps and tailings.
Water is abundant in the area of the Property. The nearest powerline is that from Outardes 4 to Saguenay, which crosses the Property in the southeast corner and the main access road 35 km to the south. The local distribution powerline terminates approximately 50 km south of the Property. The nearest ports are located at the Cities of Saguenay, 80 km to the south-southwest,
and Trois-Rivieres, 340 km to the south-southwest.
The Lac Orignal region is covered by forest and lakes. The topography is undulating, with some significant hills locally. The elevation ranges from 502 to 762 m above mean sea level. The Property area has been intensely logged and much of the vegetation consists of mainly black spruce and balsam fir.
1.4 History
The Lac Orignal region has a long history of mineral exploration work since the 1940s and government geoscientific surveys since the 1960s. In 1943, Waddington explored for magnetite deposits on behalf of the Québec Government on the western part of the Lac Orignal Property near Lake Onatchiway. Waddington concluded that there were no important magnetite deposits in the area. In 1977, Shell Resources compiled all the metal occurrences in the Eastern Grenville Province and recommended follow-up work, mainly for zinc deposits.

In 1998, prospector Léopold Tremblay discovered the Lac Orignal Showing, samples of which returned assays of up to >7% P2O5. Later that year, Léopold Tremblay and Charles Boivin discovered the nearby Mirepoix phosphate-titanium showing. Following an evaluation by IOS Services Géoscientifiques, the Property was optioned by Les Ressources d’Arianne (“Arianne”) in 1999.
In 2000, Arianne completed three drill holes totalling 150 m, which were designed to determine the thickness of the mineralized horizon at Mirepoix. The main intersections returned 4.04% P2O5 and 4.89% TiO2 over 19 m, 3.40% P2O5and 4.72% TiO2 over 8 m, 5.86% P2O5 and 10.23% TiO2 over 4 m, 3.16% P2O5and 5.96% TiO2 over 26 m, 3.75% P2O5and 5.32% TiO2 over 13 m.
In the fall of 2000 and the spring of 2001, Arianne excavated 45 trenches on various mineralized horizons and completed 11 drill holes totalling 290 m. The drilling intersected two oxide-bearing gabbronorite units. The three best intersections of the first unit returned 2.74% P2O5 and 4.14% TiO2 over 24.98 m, 3.41% P2O5 and 6.21% TiO2 over 11.10 m, 2.95% P2O5 and 4.31% TiO2 over 25.13 m, and 3.64% P2O5and 4.34% TiO2 over 23.10 m.
A ground magnetic survey was carried over the claims in January 2001. During the fall of 2001, four areas were mechanically stripped to better understand the attitude of the mineralization and 13 drill holes completed for a total of 470.8 m. The two best drill hole intersections were 3.39% P2O5 and 4.42% TiO2 over 15.0 m and 2.44% P2O5and 5.29% TiO2 over 14.0 m.
In 2011, Glen Eagle confirmed the historical assay results by Tremblay and acquired the Lac Orignal Showing claims. In 2012, a surface prospecting and trenching program by Glen Eagle discovered the Lac Vanel occurrence, approximately 2 km north of the Lac Orignal occurrence, with grades of up to slightly >5% P2O5. Following this discovery, Glen Eagle completed a 3-phase drilling program in 2012. A total of 43 drill holes totalling 4,611.5 m allowed the definition of a phosphate mineral (apatite) deposit within a ferrous-gabbro host unit measuring more than 1 km long and approximately 50 m to 70 m thick. In 2014, Glen Eagle completed a second drill program consisting of 19 new drill holes and deepening of 11 drill holes from the 2012 drill program. The total amount of drilling in the 2014 program was 3,330 m. Glen Eagle also excavated 21 trenches at Lac Orignal for channel sampling.
In 2015, Glen Eagle commissioned a high-resolution helicopter-borne magnetic survey by PROSPECTAIR. A total of 2,126 line-km were flown over the Lac Orignal and Itouk Properties. In 2017, a field visit on the Itouk Lake area revealed the presence of apatite-bearing ferrogabbro (also referred to as oxide gabbro) containing up to 10% apatite (GM 70336).
In 2020, prospectors discovered the Mirepoix phosphate showing a few km to the north-northeast of the Lac Orignal Showing. A channel sample returned 8% P2O5 over 2 m. Another phosphate occurrence was discovered to the north of Lake Luc, where 2% P2O5 over 2 m was obtained for a channel sample. Glen Eagle acquired the Mirepoix area claims in April 2022.

Geoscientific work by Québec government agencies included undertaking regional geologic mapping, airborne magnetic and radiometric, and lake-bottom sediment geochemistry surveys. Twelve Fe-Ti-P showings were reported from the mapping, of which 10 returned 2.85% to 7.39% P2O5 in oxide-bearing mafic rocks.
The reader is cautioned preceding historical assays have not been verified, because the original source data are not available to the Author.
1.5 Geological Setting, Mineralization and Deposite Type
The Lac Orignal Property region is underlain by anorthosites that are part of the regional Proterozoic Lac-Saint-Jean Anorthosite (“LSJA”) Suite. The LSJA occurs in the central part of the Grenville Province. The anorthosite plutons of the LSJA Complex are composed mainly of plagioclase and variable, but much smaller amounts of pyroxene and olivine. Apart from anorthosite, the LSJA Complex contains minor leuconorite, leucotroctolite, norite, olivine-bearing gabbro, gabbro, pyroxenite, peridotite, dunite, nelsonite (magnetite, ilmenite and apatite), magnetitite, and rare charnockite-mangerite units.
Lac Orignal, Lac Vanel (2 km north of Lac Orignal), and Mirepoix (6 km northeast) are the three main phosphate showings on the Property. All three showings have been drilled, but only at Lac Orignal has a phosphate deposit been defined. The Lac Orignal Deposit is hosted in an oxide (magnetite and ilmenite) gabbro unit at least 1 km long and up to 70 m thick. X-Ray power diffraction analyses and thin section petrographic studies confirm that Deposit area rock samples contain plagioclase, orthopyroxene, clinopyroxene, ilmenite, magnetite, apatite, and biotite. The mafic silicate phases occur as intercumulus phases. Apatite, ilmenite and magnetite are ubiquitous accessory minerals and may reach major proportions of the rocks. Apatite is the principal phosphate-bearing mineral of the Lac Orignal Deposit.
Lac Orignal is a Proterozoic-age anorthosite-hosted magmatic phosphate deposit. Anorthosites are plagioclase enriched intrusive rocks, which may ultimately be derived from basalt magma produced in the mantle.
1.6 Exploration
The most recent exploration activities on the Lac Orignal Property are the diamond drilling programs completed by Glen Eagle in 2012 and 2014.
In 2012, a surface prospecting and trenching program discovered the Lac Vanel occurrence, approximately 2 km north of the Lac Orignal occurrence, with grades of up to slightly >5% P2O5. Following this discovery, Glen Eagle Resources completed a 3-phase drilling program in 2012. A total of 43 drill holes totalling 4,611.5 m allowed the definition of a phosphate mineral (apatite) deposit within an oxide gabbro host unit measuring more than 1 km long and approximately 50 m to 70 m thick. The best assay intersection intervals were 4.7% P2O5 over 70.5 m in drill hole LO-12-03, 5.4% P2O5 in drill hole LO-12-08, 5.3% P2O5over 64.5 m in drill hole LO-12-12, 5.7% P2O5 in drill hole LO-12-13, and 5.7% P2O5 over 61 m in drill hole LO-12-25 at Lac Orignal, and 3.6% P2O5 in drill hole LO-12-22 at Lac Vanel.

In 2014, Glen Eagle completed a second drill program consisting of 19 new drill holes and deepening of 11 drill holes from the 2102 drill program. The total amount of drilling in the 2014 program was 3,330 m. The best assay intersection intervals were 5.54% P2O5 over 99 m in drill hole LO-14-21, 5.61% P2O5 in drill hole LO-14-23, 5.83% P2O5in drill hole LO-14-24, and 5.53% P2O5 over 69 m in drill hole LO-14-26 at Lac Orignal. In addition to the drilling, 21 trenches were excavated for channel sampling and assay. The best trench mineralized intervals were 4.38% P2O5over 12.0 m and 5.86% P2O5 over 7.5 m in R-2, 4.84% P2O5over 9 m in R-4, and 5.02% P2O5 over 7.5 m in R-5. The Lac Orignal phosphate deposit remains open to expansion by drilling down-dip and possibly along strike to the west.
A high-resolution helicopter-borne magnetic survey was completed in 2015. This survey mapped out the extents of the oxide gabbro host of the phosphate mineralization in the Lac Orignal Deposit area.
1.7 Sample Preparation, Analyses and Security
The Lac Orignal Property was visited on July 7 and July 8, 2022, by Mr. Antoine Yassa, P.Geo., and a Qualified Person, to complete an independent site visit and a data verification sampling program. In the opinion of the author (the “Author”) of this Technical Report Summary (the “Report”), the sample preparation, analytical procedures, security and QA/QC program meet industry standards, and that the data are of good quality and satisfactory for use in the Mineral Resource Estimate reported in this Report. Furthermore, independent due diligence sampling shows acceptable correlation with the original assays, and it is the Author’s opinion that the Company’s original results are suitable for use in the current Mineral Resource Estimate.
1.8 Data Verification
The Lac Orignal Project was visited by Mr. Antoine Yassa, P.Geo., on July 7 and 8, 2022, for the purpose of completing a site visit that included viewing drilling sites and outcrops, GPS collar location verifications, discussions, and due diligence sampling.
Mr. Yassa collected nine samples from three diamond drill holes during the July 7 and 8, 2022, site visit. All samples were selected from holes drilled in 2014. No drill core from the 2012 drilling program was available for verification sampling, due to the sale of the drill core storage facility and subsequent demolishing of the facility.
Verification of drill hole, trench and channel assay data entry was performed by the Author on 2,025 assay intervals for P2O5. Data from drill holes completed in 2012 and 2014, and all 54 trench and channel samples were verified. The 2,025 verified intervals were checked against original digital assay laboratory certificates provided directly to the Author by AGAT. The checked assays represent 33.2% of the entire database of 3,216 samples, and 68.8% of the constrained data of 1,656 samples.
The Author also validated the Mineral Resource database by checking for inconsistencies in analytical units, duplicate entries, interval, length or distance values less than or equal to zero, blank or zero-value assay results, out-of-sequence intervals, intervals or distances greater than the reported drill hole length, inappropriate collar locations, survey and missing intervals and coordinate fields. A few minor errors were identified and corrected in the database.

1.9 Mineral Processing and Metallurgical Testing
The results of chemical analyses of a drill core composite, of mineralogical examinations, and of the magnetic separation and preliminary flotation tests, indicate the following:
● | The Lac Orignal Deposit contains very low levels of potentially hazardous components, such as arsenic, heavy metals and radioactivity; |
● | The apatite mineral content has the potential to be concentrated as a high-grade product and at high recovery. The F6 and F7 (6th and 7th flotation steps) produced concentrate grades of 36.6% P2O5 at 93.4% and 37.4% P2O5at 92.2% recoveries, respectively, suggesting that there is potential for significant improvement of apatite grade by rejection of silicates and of ilmenite; |
● | Potential methods to improve apatite grade while maintaining high recovery are regrinding of a rougher flotation concentrate, such as; |
○ | “Polishing” (gentle grinding) of rougher flotation concentrate (applied in tests F6 and F7; |
○ | Additional cleaner steps in the flotation process; |
○ | High intensity “mag separation” of ilmenite from apatite concentrate; and |
○ | Reverse flotation of silicates from apatite concentrate |
● | Locked cycle testing (Test F8) obtained an apatite concentrate grading 40.3% P2O5at 92.2% recovery. The apatite concentrate was found to be mostly free of the main contaminants of concern. |
The Lac Orignal Deposit test results indicate the potential for recovering two additional mineral products: 1) a magnetite concentrate; and 2) an ilmenite concentrate. A magnetite concentrate can be achieved by magnetic separation plus potential grinding and classification to meet market requirements, such as heavy media separation. Over 50% of the magnetite may be recoverable and saleable.
Most of the ilmenite mineralization will report to the apatite rougher and to cleaner tails. Ilmenite, being a paramagnetic mineral, could be concentrated with a combination of high intensity magnetic separation, gravity and (or) froth flotation techniques. Mineralogical examination of the ground composite indicated that 50% of the ilmenite was “pure” and 30% was “free”. This result suggests that with strong concentration methods, over 50% recovery of high-grade ilmenite concentrate (47% TiO2) might be anticipated. However, the locked-cycle test indicated that a concentrate containing <40% TiO2 at a 23% recovery was achievable. A need for additional testing was indicated to reduce ilmenite losses to tails and to reject silicates and iron oxides from the concentrate.

1.10 | Initial Mineral Resource Estimate |
The Lac Orignal Deposit database compiled by the Authors consists of 63 drill holes and 17 surface channel samples totalling 7,984 m and 149.5 m respectively. A total of 49 drill holes (6,393 m) and five channel samples (27 m) intersected the mineralized wireframes used for the Mineral Resource Estimate. The database contained 2,880 assays for percent P2O5.
The Initial Mineral Resource Estimate is reported with an effective date of October 3, 2022, and is presented in Table 1.1. The Lac Orignal Phosphate Deposit is estimated to have a pit-constrained (estimated at 2.5% P2O5 cut-off) Indicated Mineral Resource of 15.8 Mt at grades of 5.18% P2O5, 23.90% Fe2O3 and 4.23% TiO2, and an Inferred pit-constrained Mineral Resource of 33.2 Mt at grades of 5.06% P2O5, 22.55% Fe2O3and 4.16% TiO2. The Authors consider that the mineralization at the Lac Orignal Deposit is potentially amenable to open pit economic extraction.

Note: P2O5 = phosphorus pentoxide, Fe2O3 = iron oxide/ferric oxide, TiO2= titanium dioxide.
1. Mineral Resources, which are not Mineral Reserves, do not have demonstrated economic viability.
2. The estimate of Mineral Resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation socio-political, marketing, or other relevant issues.
3. The Inferred Mineral Resource in this estimate has a lower level of confidence than that applied to an Indicated Mineral Resource and must not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. It is reasonably expected that the majority of the Inferred Mineral Resource could be upgraded to an Indicated Mineral Resource with continued exploration.
4. Mineral Resources are estimated and reported in accordance with the definitions for Mineral Resources in §229.1302(d)(1)(iii)(A) (Item 1302(d)(1)(iii)(A) of Regulation S-K) into Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resources, which is consistent with the CIM Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves, Definitions (2014) and Best Practices Guidelines (2019) prepared by the CIM Standing Committee on Reserve Definitions and adopted by the CIM Council.
The P2O5 cut-off value is calculated with parameters below:
US$:C$Exchange Rate | 0.80 | |
P2O5 Price | US$200/t (approximate two-year trailing average) | |
P2O5 Process Recovery | 75% | |
Processing Cost | C$9.00/t | |
G&A | C$3.25/t | |
Mining Cost | C$2.50/t | |
Pit Slope | 45° | |
Accordingly, the P2O5 cut-off of potential open pit mining is calculated to be = 2.5%.
P&E Mining Consultants Inc. | Page 7 of 211 |
First Phosphate Corp., Lac Orignal Phosphate Property, Report No. 429 |
The optimized pit-constrained Mineral Resource Estimate is sensitive to the selection of a reporting P2O5 cut-off values, as demonstrated in Table 1.2.

The Mineral Resources in this Technical Report Summary were estimated in accordance with § 229.1302(d)(1)(iii)(A) (Item 1302(d)(1)(iii)(A) of Regulation S-K into Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resources. Mineral Resources, which are not Mineral Reserves, do not have demonstrated economic viability. The estimate of Mineral Resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant issues. The Inferred Mineral Resource component of this grade estimate has a lower level of confidence than that applied to the Indicated Mineral Resource and must not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. It is reasonably expected that the majority of the Inferred Mineral Resources could be upgraded to Indicated Mineral Resources with continued exploration.
1.11 Environmental Studies, Permits and Social or Community Impact
The current and basic concepts for the Lac Orignal Project include the following:
● | Large-scale open-pit mining of the Lac Orignal Phosphate Deposit; |
● | Processing of the mineralized material close to the mine site to produce apatite concentrate; |
P&E Mining Consultants Inc. | Page 8 of 211 |
First Phosphate Corp., Lac Orignal Phosphate Property, Report No. 429 |
● | Concentrate dewatering and drying for truck transport to a port facility on the Saguenay River and transfer by ship to a phosphoric acid production facility for global markets; |
● | Management of mine waste rock, tailings and process water at the mine site; and |
● | Construction of mine and process plant facilities, electric power lines, mine site worker accommodations and support facilities, and access roads. |
The Lac Orignal Phosphate Deposit is located 85 km north of the Saguenay River and 8 km east of the Zec Onatchiway conservation area. Currently, access to the Project site is via logging roads. The area had been significantly deforested by past logging activity and second growth forest dominates.
No mining has taken place on or near the Property. A connection location to electrical powerlines is approximately 40 km south. Hunting and fishing camps are known in the area and the interruption of traditional area rights will be considered in mine development. Whereas water resources, such as lakes, steams and wetlands, are abundant, the development and operation of a mine is expected to be designed to have minimal impact on these resources. The Lac Orignal Project is located within the Fjord du Saguenay Regional County Municipality (“RCM”) and may be subject to authorization by this municipality. The Lac Orignal Project will be developed with the consideration of the highest environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) principles. The application of these principles is expected to provide support for environmental assessment, permitting, and social acceptance.
A detailed Environmental Impact Assessment (“EIA”) of the Project will be required. The EIA will include extensive baseline studies, species at risk, migratory birds, GHG emissions and control, current land use, archeological, etc. Avoidance of encroachment by the Project on lakes, streams and fish habitat will be important. In accordance of Directive 019 of the Ministère de l’Environnement, de la Lutte contre les changements climatiques, de la Faune et des Parcs (“MELCCFP”), Project waste rock and tailings will be classified as low risk. No significant concentrations of elements of environmental and health concerns have been detected. Although the Lac Orignal Deposit contains a small amount of iron sulphide, there appears to be adequate alkalinity in the rock to prevent metal leaching and acid rock drainage. An EIA will be filed with the MELCCFP. Normally, questions and clarification are required by MELCCFP. When this process is completed, the Project would progress to public hearings under Bureau d’Audiences Publiques sur l’Environnement. Successful hearings would be followed by Ministerial Approval of the Project.
A series of Provincial Permits and Compliances will be required with reference to:
● | Mining Act of Québec, including regulations for pits and quarries; |
● | Forest Act; |
● | Watercourse and dam safety acts; |
● | Transportation and management of dangerous fuels and substances; |
● | Water and wastewater management; and |
● | Tailings and waste rock management. |
P&E Mining Consultants Inc. | Page 9 of 211 |
First Phosphate Corp., Lac Orignal Phosphate Property, Report No. 429 |
An estimated cost and funded closure and reclamation plan with an associated monitoring proposal will also be required.
A federal environmental assessment process will likely not be triggered. The non-metallic nature of the Deposit, the absence of toxic substances, the non-application of Metal Mining Effluent Regulations, and avoidance of fish habitat disturbance would confirm avoidance of Canadian Environmental Assessment Act 2012 and 2021 revisions. Federal permits are required for the application and use of explosives, port management of fuels, and marine shipping of products.
Consultations and information sessions will be required with First Nations and the local communities as the Project is developed. The Lac Orignal Deposit is located within the ancestral territory (Nitassinan) of the Betsiamites Innu Nation. Access from and product transport route to the Saguenay area port would take place in the Nitassinan of the Mashteuiatsh Pessamit and Essipit. Consultations have been initiated with these First Nations. Significant consultations and Project information will also need to be exchanged with the communities of Dolbeau-Mistassini, Alma, and Saguenay-Lac St Jean. The transportation of concentrate to a Saguenay port facility may be a concern.
The completion of baseline studies, environmental assessment and permitting can be anticipated to exceed two years, and possibly more. No significant environmental or health risks are expected to emerge from the considerations of mining and processing the Project’s mineralized material and concentrate transport from mine to port. Potential concerns that may arise from frequent trucks passing by communities may be overcome or reduced by special truck designs, time and frequency of passing, and selection of Saguenay port location. Minimal environmental or permitting restrictions for the development and operation of the Project are anticipated.
1.12 Adjacent Properties
There are very few properties in the vicinity of the Lac Orignal Property and most of them are explored for iron and titanium potential and, to a less extent, for base metals. Most of those properties are owned by individual prospectors or businessmen.
In the southeast corner of the Property, there are nine claims enclosed within the Lac Orignal claim block. That property is explored by another company for REE within silicified paragneiss.
1.13 Conclusions and Recommendations
The Lac Orignal Phosphate Property contains a significant P2O5 Mineral Resource that is associated with a well-defined oxide gabbro intrusion associated with a large anorthosite intrusive complex. The Property has potential for delineation of additional Mineral Resources associated with extension of known anorthosite-associated magmatic mineralization zones and for discovery of new magmatic mineralization zones.

(ii) | $80,000 to the individuals on or before the ninth month anniversary of June 17, 2022. |
In the event that it executed a Going Public Transaction (“GPT Transaction”), First Phosphate was entitled to elect to make the payment described in (a)(ii), through the issuance of Shares at a price equal to the GPT Transaction deemed Share price. However, on September 14, 2022, First Phosphate announced the completion of its primary phosphate land acquisition strategy, having fully purchased under full title all existing claims that it had under option from the third parties, including an additional seven claims of the Hamann Block. All the acquired claims are free and clear of any NSR royalties and all other forms of royalty.
Additional First Phosphate properties are present in the Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean region
(i.e., Fleury, Yves, Gouin, Catherine, Begin, Sault, Perron, Antoine, Alex, Brochet and Lamarche). However, only the Lac Orignal Property is covered by this Technical Report Summary.
3.3 Status of Exploration Expenditures
As of the effective date of this Report, the accumulated total exploration expenditures incurred in 2022 on the Lac Orignal Property were C$211,950.40. Of this total, $67,331.34 was spent on field geological reconnaissance, grab sampling and channel sampling at the Lac Orignal Deposit and surrounding areas in August 2022 and C$144,631.44 was spent on data interpretation and geological modelling of the Deposit from May to September 2022. These data gathering, interpretation and modelling exploration activities are described in more detail in Sections 7 and 11 of this Report.
3.4 Mining Rights in the Province of Québec
In the Province of Québec, mining is principally regulated by the provincial government. MNRF is the provincial agency entrusted with the management of mineral substances in Québec. The ownership and granting of mining titles for mineral substances are primarily governed by the Mining Act and related regulations. In Québec, land surface rights are distinct property from mining rights. Rights in or over mineral substances in Québec form part of the domain of the State (the public domain), subject to limited exceptions for privately owned mineral substances. Mining titles for mineral substances within the public domain are granted and managed by the MNRF. The granting of mining rights for privately owned mineral substances is a matter of private negotiations, although certain aspects of the exploration for and mining of such mineral substances are governed by the Mining Act.
P&E Mining Consultants Inc. | Page 21 of 211 |
First Phosphate Corp., Lac Orignal Phosphate Property, Report No. 429 |
3.4.1 | The Claim |
A claim is the only exploration title for mineral substances (other than surface mineral substances, petroleum, natural gas and brine) currently issued in Québec. A claim gives its holder the exclusive right to explore for such mineral substances on the land subject to the claim, but does not entitle its holder to extract mineral substances, except for sampling and only in limited quantities. In order to mine mineral substances, the holder of a claim must obtain a mining lease. The electronic map designation is the most common method of acquiring new claims from the MNRF, whereby an applicant makes an online selection of available pre-mapped claims.
In rare territories, claims can be obtained by staking.
3.4.2 | The Mining Lease |
Mining leases are extraction (production) mining titles that give their holder the exclusive right to mine mineral substances (other than surface mineral substances, petroleum, natural gas and brine). A mining lease is granted to the holder of one or several claims upon proof of the existence of indicators of the presence of a workable deposit on the area covered by such claims and compliance with other requirements prescribed by the Mining Act. A mining lease has an initial term of twenty years, but may be renewed for three additional periods of ten years each. Under certain conditions, a mining lease may be renewed beyond the three statutory renewal periods.
3.4.3 | The Mining Concession |
Mining concessions are extraction (production) mining titles that give their holder the exclusive right to mine mineral substances (other than surface mineral substances, petroleum, natural gas and brine).
Mining concessions were issued prior to January 1, 1966. After that date, grants of mining concessions were replaced by grants of mining leases. Although similar in certain respects to mining leases, mining concessions granted broader surface and mining rights and are not limited in time. A grantee must commence mining operations within five years from December 10, 2013. As is the case for a holder of a mining lease, a grantee may be required by the government, on reasonable grounds, to maximize the economic spinoffs within Québec of mining the mineral resources authorized under the concession. The grantee must also, within three years of commencing mining operations and every twenty years thereafter, send the Minister a scoping and market study as regards processing in Québec.

3.5 | Environmental and Permitting |
The Author is not aware of any foreseeable problems relating to: access, weather, surface rights for mining operations, the availability and sources of electricity and water, mining personnel, potential tailings storage areas, potential waste disposal areas, environmental liabilities,
and potential processing plant sites.
A regular permit provided by the MNRF is required for trenching and drilling works (authorization to cut timber for the purpose of carrying out certain mining activities under Section 213 of the Mining Act (Chapter M-13.1)). First Phosphate has drilling permit for the Lac Orignal Property.
All the claims of the Lac Orignal Project are under the Agreement-in-Principle of General Nature (APGN) with the First Nations of Nitassinan of Betsiamites, Mashteuiatsh and Essipit. First Phosphate must request authorization from community councils prior to proceeding with exploration work, logging, blasting and bulk sampling, authorization of which is embedded within the government permit.

The Property is located within the unorganized territory of Mont-Valin with a population of five people. A small inn, Auberge 31, at km 31 of the main logging road, can accommodate workers. There are several logging camps and outfitters along the road to the Property.
4.2 Climate
The Saguenay region has a humid continental-type climate that is milder than that of the surrounding Canadian Shield and similar to that of the St. Lawrence Lowlands. Located just above the 49th parallel, the region has a very low average temperature (2.3°C), which results from significant temperature variations involving very cold winters (average −21.1°C in January) and relatively cool summers (24.1°C on average in July).
The weather statistics presented below, in Table 4.1, represent the average value of the various meteorological parameters for each month of the year for a 30-year period ending in 2010 taken from Environment Canada website for Jonquière meteorological station.

4.3 Local Resources and Infrastructure
The Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean region has a population of 280,000 inhabitants (2021) and has an extensive industrial, agricultural, forestry and tourist industries. It also has a significant hydro-electric system (owned by Rio Tinto) to produce electricity for the aluminum production and transformation industries and the University of Québec at Chicoutimi in the City of Saguenay houses a well-known geological department. The mining operations are mainly aggregate and dimensional stone quarries. The only metallic mine is the Niobec niobium mine operated by Magris Resources. The City of Saguenay also has deep-water port facilities that are linked by the Saguenay River to the St. Lawrence River at the Town of Tadoussac and, ultimately, the Atlantic Ocean. Moreover, the Company recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Port of Saguenay to secure access and development space at the port facilities. Furthermore, the port of Bécancour is located 260 km south-southeast of the City Saguenay and accessible by Highway Road 172 west to Highway 169, and then south along Highway 155 to the City of Trois-Rivieres.

The main infrastructure at the Lac Orignal Property are the access roads, which are generally in good condition. The Property is large enough to support mining operations, infrastructure, processing facilities, waste dump and tailings. Water is abundant in the area of the Property. The nearest powerline is that from Outardes 4 to Saguenay, which crosses the Property in the southeast corner and the main access road 35 km south. The local electrical distribution powerline terminates approximately 50 km south of the Property.
4.4 Physiography
The Lac Orignal region is covered by forest and lakes. The topography is undulating, with some significant hills locally. The elevation ranges from 502 to 762 m above mean sea level.
There are numerous lakes on the Property that, for the most part, drain into the Rivière aux Sables, which transects the Property. On the west side, lakes drain into the Shipshaw River. Both rivers are tributaries of the Saguenay River. The east side of the Property drains into the Portneuf River, a tributary of the St. Lawrence River.
The Property area has been intensely logged and much of the vegetation consists of mainly black spruce and balsam fir. Other areas contain undetermined hardwood. Along the shores of lakes and rivers, the white cedar is common. Small bogs are also present. Large areas of the Property were burned by a forest fire in 1996. Figure 4.2 is a photograph representative of the topography and vegetation found on the Property.

5.0 History
The Lac Orignal region has a long history of mineral exploration work since the 1940s and government geoscientific surveys since the 1960s. The results of this work and the surveys are summarized below.
5.1 Mineral Exploration History
5.1.1 Exploration 1940 to 2013
In 1943, Waddington explored for magnetite deposits on behalf of the Québec Government on the western part of the Lac Orignal Property near Lake Onatchiway. Waddington concluded that there were no important magnetite deposits (GM 07937). In 1977, Shell Resources compiled all the metal occurrences in the Eastern Grenville Province and recommended follow-up work, mainly for zinc deposits (GM 39070).
In 1998, Léopold Tremblay (a prospector from Chicoutimi) discovered the Lac Orignal Showing (Figure 5.1), samples of which returned assays of up to >7% P2O5. Later in 1998, Léopold Tremblay and Charles Boivin discovered the Mirepoix phosphate-titanium showing, 6 km northeast of the Lac Orignal Showing. Following an evaluation by IOS Services Géoscientifiques, Tremblay’s claims were optioned by Les Ressources d’Arianne (“Arianne”) in 1999.

Arianne completed exploration programs between 2000 and 2013. In 2000, Arianne completed three drill holes totalling 150 m (TF00-1 to TF00-3), which were designed to determine the thickness of the mineralized horizon at Mirepoix (GM 58770) (Figure 5.2 and Table 5.1).
The main intersections returned 4.04% P2O5 and 4.89% TiO2 over 19 m, 3.40% P2O5and 4.72% TiO2 over 8 m, 5.86% P2O5 and 10.23% TiO2 over 4 m, 3.16% P2O5and 5.96% TiO2 over 26 m, and 3.75% P2O5 and 5.32% TiO2 over 13 m (Table 5.2). As a result, a follow-up field mapping program was completed (GM 58231). Subsequent metallurgical tests determined that it was possible to produce an apatite concentrate of excellent quality (GM 58772). Grinding tests of the phosphate mineralization determined that the apatite can be liberated with a 0.25 mm spacing in a disc pulverizer (GM 58774).

During the fall of 2000 and the spring of 2001, 45 trenches were excavated by Arianne on various mineralized horizons and 11 drill holes (01-MX-101 to 01-MX-111) totalling 290 m were completed (GM 58771) (see Figure 5.1 and Table 5.1). The drilling intersected two oxide-bearing gabbronorite units. The best intersections of the first unit returned 2.74% P2O5 and 4.14% TiO2 over 24.98 m, 3.41% P2O5 and 6.21% TiO2 over 11.10 m, 2.95% P2O5and 4.31% TiO2 over 25.13 m, and 3.64% P2O5 and 4.34% TiO2 over 23.10 m (see Table 5.2). In the second gabbronorite unit, the best intersections were 8.11% TiO2 over 29.19 m and 13.80% TiO2 over 15.90 m.
A ground magnetic survey was carried over the claims in January 2001 (GM 58773). During the fall of 2001, four areas were mechanically stripped to better understand the attitude of the mineralization and 13 drill holes (01-MX-112 to 01-MX-124) completed for a total of 470.8 m (GM 60177) (Figure 5.2; Table 5.1). The best intersections of this drill program were 3.39% P2O5 and 4.42% TiO2 over 15.0 m and 2.44% P2O5 and 5.29% TiO2 over 14.0 m (see Table 5.2).
In 2012, Arianne flew an airborne magnetic survey over the Mirepoix claims (GM 66603). Finally, in 2013, Arianne collected 22 samples on the northeast part of the claims, of which three returned grades of 2.55%, 3.35% and 5.07% P2O5 associated with 3.68%, 6.08% and 7.63% TiO2, respectively.
In 2013, Ressources Jourdan did a geological reconnaissance survey and took 89 samples, of which 56 were assayed (GM 68316). Samples taken on the Willie Phosphate Showing, about 30 km west of the Lac Orignal Showing, returned values between 4.0% and 6.6% P2O5. A magnetic survey completed at the same time indicated that the lithological unit from which the Willie sample was taken is 2,800 m long and 450 m wide.

5.1.2 | Glen Eagle Resources 2011 to 2022 |
In 2011, Glen Eagle confirmed the historical assay results by Tremblay and acquired the Lac Orignal Showing claims.
In 2012, a surface prospecting program discovered the Lac Vanel occurrence, approximately 2 km north of the Lac Orignal Showing, with grades of up to slightly >5% P2O5. Following this discovery, Glen Eagle Resources completed a three-phase drilling program in 2012 at the Lac Orignal and Lac Vanel Showings. A total of 43 drill holes totalling 4,611.5 m allowed the definition of a phosphate mineral (apatite) deposit within a ferrous-gabbro host unit measuring more than 1 km long and approximately 50 m to 70 m thick. This unit strikes east-west and dips approximately 30° north. The 2012 drilling program is described in more detail in Section 10 of this Report.
In 2014, Glen Eagle completed a second drill program consisting of 19 new drill holes and deepening of 11 drill holes from the 2102 drill program. The total amount of drilling in the 2014 program was 3,330 m (GM 69925). The 2014 drilling program is described in more detail in Section 7 of this Technical Report Summary. In addition to the drilling, Glen Eagle excavated 21 trenches on the Lac Orignal Showing area for channel sampling.
In late-2014, 21 trenches were excavated and channel sampled by Glen Eagle in the Lac Orignal Showing area. The locations of the trenches/channels are represented in Figure 5.3. Trench/channel orientations and lengths are given in Table 5.3 and assay results summarized in Table 5.4. The best mineralized intervals were 4.38% P2O5 over 12.0 m and 5.86% P2O5 over 7.5 m in R-2, 4.84% P2O5 over 9 m in R-4 and 5.02% P2O5 over 7.5 m in R-5. The trench/channel results in the West and Central sectors of the Lac Orignal Showing area (Figure 5.3) are incorporated into the current Mineral Resource Estimate presented in Section 11 of this Report.

In 2015, Glen Eagle commissioned a high-resolution helicopter-borne magnetic survey by PROSPECTAIR (GM 69003). A total of 2,126 line-km was flown on a line spacing of 75 m over the Lac Orignal and Itouk South and North Properties (Figure 5.4). The oxide gabbro host unit of the Lac Orignal Showing is clearly evident on a Total Magnetic Intensity Image (Figure 5.5).

In 2017, a field visit on the Itouk Lake area revealed the presence of apatite-bearing ferrogabbro containing up to 10% apatite (GM 70336).
In 2020, a group of prospectors discovered an additional phosphate showing in the Mirepoix area to the north-northeast of Lac Orignal (GM 72578). A channel sample returned 8% P2O5 over 2 m in nelsonite. Another phosphate occurrence was discovered to the north of Lake Luc,
where 2% P2O5 over 2 m was obtained for a channel sample. Glen Eagle acquired the Mirepoix area claims in April 2022.
5.2 Geoscientific Work by the Québec Government (1965 to 2020)
The area was first mapped as part of the Grenville Project from 1965 to 1967, at a scale of
1:253,440 (DP 126 and RG 161). In 1986, a lake-bottom sediment sampling program covering the Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean was completed and the samples analyzed for Co, Cu, Fe, Mn, Mo, Pb, Ni, U and Zn (DP 86-34). No anomalies were found on the Lac Orignal Property, but Fe and Zn anomalies were discovered nearby.
The most recent geological report covering the Lac Orignal Property was published in 2003 under the direction of Claude Hébert (RG 2002-13 and RG 2009-01), in which Fe-Ti-P were first reported on the Property and throughout the area. Twelve mineralized showings were listed, of which ten returned 2.85% to 7.39% P2O5 in oxide-bearing mafic rocks, whereas the two other showings returned high values of Fe and Ti. In 2010, the Property area was subject to a new lake-bottom sediment sampling program and the samples were analyzed for Cu, La, Li, Nb, Ni and U (PRO 2011-01). No distinct anomalies were identified. An airborne magnetic survey was flown in 2015 (DP 2015-04). In 2020, the Québec Government commissioned an airborne magnetic and radiometric survey encompassing the south part of the Property (DP 2021-04).

6.0 Geological Setting and Mineralization
The information in this section of the Report is summarized largely from RP200901 and Laverdière (2016).
6.1 Regional Geology
Geologically, the Lac Orignal region is situated in the Pipmuacan Reservoir region of the Mesoproterozoic Grenville Province (Higgins and Breemen, 1992) (Figure 6.1). Many geological units have been defined here (Figure 6.2). Three of these units correspond to anorthosite-mangerite-charnockite-granite (“AMCG”) suites. The AMCG suite rocks host the apatite mineralization at the Lac Orignal Property (Figure 6.3). The AMCG suites are the Lac-Saint-Jean Anorthositic Suite (“LSJAS”; 1160 Ma to 1135 Ma), the Pipmuacan Anorthositic Suite (1082 Ma to 1045 Ma), and the Valin Anorthositic Suite (1016 Ma to 1008 Ma; Figures 6.2 and 6.3).
Three major northeast to southwest-trending deformation zones affect the region. These deformation zones form km-wide corridors and have been traced for several tens of km along strike (Figures 6.2 and 6.3). The Deformation Zone of Saint-Fulgence (“ZDSF”) consists of several thrust faults that trend along the southeastern edge of LSJAS (Hébert et al., 1998; Hébert and Lacoste, 1998a, 1998b; Daigneault et al., 1999; Figure 6.3). The Deformation Zone of Chute-des-Passes (“ZDCP”) corresponds to a thrust fault that trends along the northwest edge of the LSJAS (Hebert and Beaumier, 2000b). The Deformation Zone de Pipmuacan (“ZDP”) is a strike-slip, generally dextral fault (Hébert 1991, 1999; Figure 6.3). North-northeast trending, sinistral strike-slip faults intersect these three deformation zones. Lastly, a series of late, northwest-trending normal faults, limited to the south-west corner of the region, are associated with formation of the Graben du Saguenay (Figure 6.3).
The region has mineralized occurrences of apatite, iron, titanium, vanadium and nickel-copper sulphide mineralization associated with the AMCG suites. In the supracrustal Sequence of Saint-Onge (Figure 6.2), there is a significant wollastonite deposit and some small zinc showings mineralized. Anorthositic rocks and some granitic intrusions could be exploited as architectural stone. Finally, dolomitic marbles and an amazonite pegmatite dyke also provide potential as decorative stone.

6.2 Local Geology
Anorthosites in the Lac Orignal region are part of the Proterozoic Lac-Saint-Jean Anorthosite (“LSJA”) Complex (see Figure 6.3).
6.2.1 The Lac-Saint-Jean Anorthositic Suite (“LSJAS”)
The Lac-Saint-Jean Anorthositic Suite (“LSJAS”) constitutes the main intrusive body of the Lac Orignal Property. It is found on the western part of the Lac Orignal Property with interbedded granite and oxide-bearing gabbronorite.
The LSJAS has been divided into two major lithofacies. The first lithofacies is represented by mafic to ultramafic rocks and constitutes the bulk of the LSJAS. The second, much less important lithofacies, corresponds to intermediate to felsic rocks. The lithologies that constitute the mafic and ultramafic rocks are mainly anorthosite and minor amounts of leuconorite, norite, troctolite, gabbronorite, olivine gabbro, gabbro, pyroxenite, peridotite, dunite, magnetitite and nelsonite (rock type dominated by ilmenite and apatite), and rare charnockite–mangerite units (Hébert et al., 2005). The anorthosite plutons are composed mainly of plagioclase with variable amounts of pyroxene and olivine, which makes it difficult to delineate the borders of the individual plutons in the field (Higgins et al., 2002).
The LSJAS had formerly been mapped to be more extensive. However, its area has been substantially reduced due to new geochronological data, which have made it possible to define two new anorthositic suites that are distinct and younger than the LSJAS: 1) the Pipmuacan Anorthositic Suite (1082 Ma to 1045 Ma); and 2) the Valin Anorthositic Suite (1016 Ma to 1008 Ma).
6.2.2 | The Pipmuacan Anorthositic Suite (“PAS”) |
Isotopic dating has defined an AMCG-type (anorthosite-mangerite-charnokite-granite) magmatic event that occurred approximately 50 Ma following the emplacement of the LSJAS, which is the Pipmuacan Anorthositic Suite (“PAS”), emplaced between 1080 Ma and 1059 Ma. The PAS unit covers >50% of the Lac Orignal Property and occupies its core.
The PAS contains five units: the Vanel Anorthosite, Poulin-de-Courval Mangerite, Strike Mangerite, Pamouscachiou Monzonite, and the Étienniche Monzonite. The Vanel Anorthosite and the Poulin-de-Courval Mangerite of the PAS are described below.
6.2.1.1 | The Vanel Anorthosite Suite |
The Vanel Anorthosite Suite is made-up of anorthosite, leuconorite and norite, which are distinguished from the LSJAS rocks by the pink colour of plagioclase and a much more common coronitic texture. The composition of plagioclase is generally labradorite. There is also plagioclase of andesine composition in apatite-enriched anorthosites. The composition of this plagioclase allows assignment of these lenses to the Vanel Anorthosite Suite.
P&E Mining Consultants Inc. First Phosphate Corp., Lac Orignal Phosphate Property, Report No. 429 | Page 46 of 211 |
The Vanel Anorthosite Suite has been subdivided into two major units. One unit consists almost exclusively of pink plagioclase anorthosite and leuconorite. In places, textures indicative of coalescing mixtures of anorthosite and leuconorite magmas are observed. The second unit has been divided into several facies. The main facies consist of leuconorite, anorthosite, leucotroctolite, norite and gabbronorite, with coronitic texture and pink plagioclase. There are also sections of rocks of intermediate, mafic and ultramafic composition that are enriched in Fe, Ti, P. The other facies are gneissic leuconorite and norite, norite, diorite and some leuconorite, olivine ferrogabbro, gabbronorite with Fe, Ti, P oxides, which are restricted and appear to form subordinate lenses inside the main facies.
6.2.1.2 | The Poulin-de-Courval Mangerite |
The Poulin-de-Courval Mangerite outcrops in the eastern part of the Lac Orignal Property and extends south into the neighbouring area, where an age of 1068±3 Ma has been determined. This intrusion consists of mangerite, charnockite and granite. Mangerite and charnockite are green and pink, respectively. They are composed of feldspar with a rapakivic texture, which imparts an eye-like appearance when deformed. The granite is pink, fine-grained, and devoid of orthopyroxene.
6.2.3 | Valin Anorthositic Suite (VAS) |
This AMCG suite consists of four units found in the southeastern part of the region: 1) the Mattawa Anorthosite; 2) the alkaline anorthositic Massif of Labrieville; 3) La Hache Mangerite; and 4) Gouin Charnockite. These intrusions were emplaced between 1016 Ma and 1008 Ma.
The Mattawa Anorthosite is located to the south of the Lac Orignal Property. An age of 1016±2 Ma was obtained from a gabbronorite sample assigned from its peripheral zone. This circular-shaped pluton is associated with a prominent negative magnetic anomaly.
The core of the Mattawa Anorthosite consists of megaporphyritic and porphyroclastic anorthosite with pink plagioclase and rare leuconorite. The plagioclase of the anorthosite and leuconorite is antiperthitic and generally whitish, but locally reddish on altered surfaces. On a fresh surface, the colour of the phenocrysts varies from mauve to gray or green, but always have a pinkish tint. These crystals lie on top of each other or are set in a pink mesostasis composed of medium- to fine-grained granoblastic plagioclase. Ferromagnesian minerals are very rare and consist of pyroxene and biotite. Clusters and lenses of disseminated hemo-ilmenite, cm to dm in size, are also observed locally.
In the anorthosite, the primary bedding is not very well defined. However, there is a primary mineral foliation forming a concentric pattern with an outward dip, which suggests diapiric emplacement. The Mattawa Anorthosite also contains gabbronorite which occurs as conformable horizons along the edge of the pluton or as sills or dykes outside the main body.
Gabbronorite horizons are dm wide and long, but more rarely extend for up to a km. They show primary bedding in places and cooling fractures. The gabbronorite is almost always enriched in hemo-ilmenite, magnetite and apatite and massive layers of nelsonite are also present.
P&E Mining Consultants Inc. First Phosphate Corp., Lac Orignal Phosphate Property, Report No. 429 | Page 47 of 211 |
The large lenses of massive hemo-ilmenite at Lac Orignal, a few km north of the Mattawa Pluton and within the Vanel Anorthosite, associated with horizons of ultramafic rocks and gabbronorite, are considered to be related to the Mattawa Anorthosite.

6.3.1 | Lac Vanel Anorthosite (I3G) |
Grey-pink colored rock is generally non-magnetic (local slight magnetism), massive with medium and coarse grains. The rock contains 85% to 90% plagioclase, 5% to 10% biotite, and trace to 5% iron oxides. (Figures 6.5 and 6.6).

6.3.2 | Gabbroic Anorthosite (I3H) |
This unit closely resembles anorthositic gabbro. However, the gabbroic anorthosite contains less ferromagnesian and iron oxide minerals. Virtually no apatite is observed and the rock very closely resembles an anorthosite. This unit is relatively minor in occurrence. Generally, the description was either an anorthosite (thus >90% plagioclase) or an anorthositic gabbro (Figures 6.7 and 6.8).

6.3.3 | Anorthositic Gabbro (I3I) |
This lithology is common in the Lac Orignal area. Although the rock has been named anorthositic gabbro (I3I), fresh surfaces show that it may actually be gabbro (Figures 6.10 and 6.11). Generally, the I3I is a homogeneous, massive and magnetic rock with granoblastic texture, and it can have shear fabric. The percentage of ferromagnesian silicate minerals in the rock is low, but 10% to 15% iron oxides and 3% to 8% apatite (weighted averages) are present.

6.3.4 | Ferrogabbro with Apatite (I3A; AP; Mg) |
Ferrogabbro is a gabbro rich in oxides and ferromagnesian minerals relative to plagioclase (melanogabbro) (Figures 6.12 and 6.13). This rock is a strongly magnetic and very dense. It consists of 35% plagioclase, 25% iron oxides, 20% biotite, 8% to 15% apatite, and 5% amphibole. Granoblastic, protoclastic and coronitic textures are common around the edges of oxides and amphiboles (metamorphosed pyroxenes). This rock type is the main host of the apatite mineralization at Lac Orignal.

Note: Ferrogabbro (also referred to as oxide gabbro) is the main host rock type of the Lac Orignal phosphate mineralization.

6.3.5 | Syenite (I2D)/Monzonite (I2F) |
The syenite is a homogeneous, massive and very weakly magnetic rock. The dark red grains are potassium feldspar (Figures 6.14 and 6.15) and the whitish ones are plagioclase. The presence of quartz seems unlikely, but previous geologists labelled this lithology monzonite.

6.4 | Mineralization |
Phosphate and Fe-Ti mineralization in the Lac Orignal region is restricted to the AMCG suites and associated mainly with anorthositic rocks. Mineralization in the Pipmuacan Anorthositic Suite (“PAS”) occurs in the Vanel Anorthosites, particularly along fault or shear zones. Three main types of mineralization have been recognized: 1) Fe-Ti (massive magnetitite) mineralization; 2) Fe-Ti-P mineralization (nelsonite or disseminated oxides); and 3) disseminated apatite (phosphate) mineralization. The Fe-Ti-P and P mineralization is restricted to andesine anorthosites. This type of anorthosite was recognized initially in the LSJAS. Previously, these rocks were considered to be labradorite anorthosites. The recognition of anorthosite, leuconorite and andesine apatite-enriched norite containing 5% to 8% P2O5, in the absence of iron and (or) titanium oxides, constituted an important discovery.
The two main mineralized showings on the Lac Orignal Property are the Lac Orignal Showing itself and the Lac Vanel Showing (see Figure 6.4). At the Lac Orignal Showing, phosphate mineralization is located in an oxide gabbro (ultramafic rock I4Za) unit >1 km long and approximately 50 m to 70 m thick. This unit strikes east-west and dips approximately 30° north. The Lac Vanel Showing is situated approximately 2 km north of the Lac Orignal Showing. The mineralization of the Mirepoix Showing is associated with a late-phase of the Mattawa Anorthosite that intruded along fault planes within the Vanel Anorthosite.
The X-ray powder diffraction analysis and petrographic thin section studies of 35 core samples from four drill holes (LO-14-02, LO-14-022, LO-14-23 and LO-14-24) from Lac Orignal indicates that these rocks contain mainly plagioclase, orthopyroxene, clinopyroxene, ilmenite, magnetite, apatite, and biotite (Banerjee, 2022) (Figure 6.16). The relative proportion of these minerals varies from one sample to another, such that the host rocks of the apatite mineralization can be gabbro, pyroxenite, norite, nelsonite or anorthosite.

6.5 Deposit Types
Globally, there are two main types of phosphate mineral deposits: 1) igneous rock hosted; and 2) sedimentary rock hosted (Pufahl and Groat, 2017). There are two types of igneous rock hosted phosphate mineral deposits: 1) igneous carbonatite hosted; and 2) igneous massif-type anorthosite hosted. Lac Orignal is an anorthosite massif-hosted phosphate (apatite) mineral deposit.
The characteristics of igneous versus sedimentary phosphate mineral deposits are summarized in Table 6.1.
Anorthosites are plutonic igneous rocks that contain 90% to 100% plagioclase and 0% to 10% mafic silicate and (or) oxide minerals (Figure 6.17). The most common mafic minerals present are pyroxene (orthopyroxene and clinopyroxene), olivine, Fe-Ti oxide minerals (e.g., magnetite, ilmenite) and apatite. Plagioclase-rich rocks that contain <90% plagioclase are leucotroctolites, leuconorites, leucogabbros, leucogabbros and leucogabbronorites, depending on the phase and amount of mafic silicate minerals. These rock types are also associated with anorthosite plutons. Apatite and Fe-Ti oxide mineralization commonly occurs within the anorthosite phase or in associated gabbro.

Proterozoic anorthosites form complexes/massifs/batholiths that range in areal extent from tens to 20,000 km2 and were emplaced in intracratonic settings. The parental magmas of anorthosites are considered to form in the mantle (Ashwal, 1993; Charlier et al., 2010) or in the lower crust (Bédard, 2001). The most generally accepted model involves formation of a basalt magma in the upper mantle, which intrudes the lower crust and fractionates large amounts of mafic minerals that settle in the magma chamber. The co-crystallizing plagioclase crystals float in the residual magma, which ascends farther into the crust and crystallizes as anorthosite complexes (Figure 6.18). Assimilation of crustal material may also drive large amounts of plagioclase crystallization and magma ascent (Emslie et al., 1994).

Figure 6.18 Generally Accepted Model for Anorthosite Origin
Source: Charlier et al. (2010)
An opposite model is proposed by Arndt (2013). In his model, anorthosite complexes form when basalt magma differentiates in crustal magma chambers to form lower-density plagioclase and higher density residual liquid. Plagioclase and minor pyroxene crystallized in-situ on the floor of the magma chamber to produce the anorthosite complex, and the residual liquid migrated downwards, eventually to solidify as dense Fe-rich cumulates (Figures 6.19 and 6.20).

7.0 EXPLORATION
7.1 Field Exploration
First Phosphate engaged Magnor Exploration Inc. (La Baie, Québec) in 2022 to conduct general geological reconnaissance and sampling of the various apatite occurrences in the Mirepoix and Périgny areas of the Lac Orignal Project and surrounding areas (Figure 7.1). The field work took place between August 16 and August 31, 2022. The field crew consisted of 1 senior geologist and 1 technician. A total of 89 grab and channel samples were taken during this program and were sent on September 9, 2022 to ActLabs in Ancaster, Ontario, for assaying.
Oxide-apatite gabbronorite was found on the southeastern branch of the Lac Orignal Property all along the road that leads to Lac Orignal. Values of up to 3.0% P2O5 was obtained using a portable XRF analyzer. XRF analyzers determine the chemistry of a sample by measuring the fluorescent (or secondary) X-ray emitted from a sample when it is excited by a primary X-ray source. It should be noted that the results only provide an indication of the amount phosphate present. Certified assaying of the core samples is still required to accurately determine the amount of phosphate mineralization.
In the Lac Abondance area, magnetitite was identified at showing CH-300, which was discovered in 2001 (Figure 7.1). XRF measurements gave 43% Fe2O3, 6.5% TiO2 and 3.8% P2O5. Mangerite with up to 35% combined biotite and magnetite was found in the area of showing CH-396. This showing was found in 2000, when a sample of nelsonite (composed mainly of ilmenite and apatite) returned 5.54% P2O5. Showing CH-343 lies within metre-thick layers of nelsonite that strike 110o and dip 50o. Showing CH-387 was not found.
In the Mirepoix area, massive magnetite with from 15 to 20% apatite was found at the TC-01-6001 and TC-01-6004 showings (Figure 7.1). Oxide-bearing mangerite is found at the Mirepoix 2 and 3 showings. Metre-thick layers of nelsonite with up to 40% apatite are found within the country rock. These units strike north to northwest and dip shallowly.
Additionally in 2022, the Company also partnered on a research initiative with the Pufahl Research Group at Queen`s University in Kingston, ON. The primary goal of the partnership is to determine the detailed mineralogy and geochemistry of the phosphate mineralization at Lac Original.

7.2 Drilling
Drilling programs on the Lac Orignal Property have not been undertaken by First Phosphate. The most recent drilling programs there were completed by Glen Eagle Resources in 2012 at the Lac Orignal and Lac Vanel Showings and 2014 at Lac Orignal (Figure 7.2). These two drilling programs are summarized below from Québec government assessment reports GM 58770 and GM 58771.

7.2.1 2012 Drilling Program
Glen Eagle carried out a 3-phase drilling program on the Property in 2012. The first phase was completed in February 2012 and consisted of six drill holes totalling 704 m. Five drill holes were completed on the Lac Orignal Showing and one drill hole on the Lac Vanel Showing. The drilling of the Lac Orignal Showing intersected Fe-Ti-P mineralization, whereas that of the Lac Vanel Showing missed the intended target.
The second and third phases of drilling were planned to sample the oxide gabbro on a 100 m x 100 m grid. The second phase was completed in June 2012 and consisted of 17 drill holes totalling 1,827 m. Twelve drill holes were completed on the Lac Orignal Showing and five drill holes on the Lac Vanel Showing. The third phase of drilling was completed in November and December 2012 and consisted of 20 drill holes totalling 2,080 m and were completed on the Lac Orignal Showing. Overall, 43 drill holes were completed totalling 4,611 m (Table 7.1) (Figures 7.3 and 7.4).

Mineralized drill core intersections are listed in Table 7.2. The best assay intersection intervals were 4.7% P2O5 over 70.5 m in drill hole LO-12-03, 5.4% P2O5 in drill hole LO-12-08, 5.3% P2O5over 64.5 m in drill hole LO-12-12, 5.7% P2O5 in drill hole LO-12-13, and 5.7% P2O5 over 61 in drill hole LO-12-25 at Lac Orignal, and 3.6% P2O5 in drill hole LO-12-22 at Lac Vanel. The phosphate mineralization remained open to the west and at depth (Figure 7.5, below Table 7.2). The drilling program appears to have tested the limits of the Lac Orignal Deposit along strike to the east, as grade and thickness of the mineralization decreased in drill holes LO-14-16 to LO-14-20. Assays of the Lac Vanel mineralized drill core returned grades of generally <4% P2O5 (Table 7.2), which were not considered to be of potential economic interest at the time.

7.2.2 2014 Drilling Program
In November and December 2014, a second drilling program on Lac Orignal was completed with two objectives: 1) deepening selected 2012 drill holes that had proved to be too short (see Figure 7.5); and 2) extending the known mineralization towards the east and west. Ten 2012 drill holes were deepened for a total of 585 m, specifically drill holes LO-12-09 to LO-12-11, LO-12-25 to LO-12-30, and LO-12-38. Due to broken casing, drill hole LO-12-34 was re-drilled as LO-12-34A to a depth of 150 m. Nineteen new drill holes were completed during this program for a total length of 2,595 m. In summary, a total of 3,330 m of drilling was completed in 2014 (Figure 7.6) (Table 7.3).
The drill core mineralized intervals are presented in Table 7.4. The best assay intersection intervals were 5.54% P2O5over 99 m in drill hole LO-14-21, 5.61% P2O5 in drill hole LO-14-23, 5.83% P2O5 in drill hole LO-14-24, and 5.53% P2O5 over 69 m in drill hole LO-14-26 at Lac Orignal. Cross-sectional projections of the drilling results are presented in Figures 7.7 to 7.10. Cross-sectional projection 384,725 m E shows 2012 drill holes deepened to penetrate the basal contact of the mineralized oxide gabbro host unit (Figure 7.7). On cross-sectional projection 384,835 m E (Figure 7.8), two of the four drill holes appear to intersect a second mineralized zone in the footwall to the main mineralized zone. Cross-sectional projections 386,300 m E and 384,250 m E show that the 2014 drilling program appears to have tested the east and west lateral limits, respectively, of the Lac Orignal Deposit, as thickness of the mineralization decreased in drill holes LO-14-20 and LO-14-09 (Figures 7.8 and 7.10).

8.0 Sample Preparation, AnalysEs and Security
The following section discusses drill core sampling carried out by Glen Eagle at the Lac Orignal Property from 2012 and 2014. It does not include review of the “R-series” outcrop trench and channel sampling undertaken at the Lac Orignal Project, which is also included in the Mineral Resource Estimate database.
8.1 Sample Preparation and Security
The drill core is placed in labelled drill core boxes by the drilling contractor with metreage blocks inserted in the trays at the end of each run. The lids are placed on and subsequently fastened to the drill core boxes.
The drill core is transferred from the drill rig site to the drill core logging, sampling and storage facilities of Multi-Ressources Boréal (“MRBoréal”) of Chicoutimi, Québec, a consulting firm contracted to oversee the 2012 and 2014 drilling programs. The MRBoréal geo-technician aligns the drill core pieces, assesses and measures drill core recoveries and photographs the drill core.
Bulk density measurements were not taken by Glen Eagle (previous operator). However, the Author took nine independent verification samples (described in Section 12 of this Technical Report) for multiple analyses, including density determination by wet and dry weight method.
The geologist logs a description of the drill core into an excel spreadsheet, detailing lithology, mineralization, alteration and structure, and also determines sample intervals for the drill core samples. Sampling was generally undertaken at 1.5 m intervals. Homemade Reference Materials (“RM”) and blanks are inserted into the drill core-sampling stream at a rate of 1 in 20 samples for RM and 1 in 40 for blanks.
The geo-technician splits the drill core in half, using a hydraulic splitter. The half-drill core samples are placed and sealed in plastic bags along with a unique sample tag ID. The smaller sample bags are subsequently placed in larger rice bags, which are tied closed with zip lock ties and labelled. MRBoréal used commercial transport to deliver the samples to the AGAT Laboratories (“AGAT”) preparation facility in Sudbury, Ontario, before being sent for geochemical analysis by AGAT in Mississauga, Ontario. The drill core and samples are under MRBoréal personnel supervision, from the time of pick-up of the drill core at the drill rig site until delivery to the commercial transport. All drill core and sample splits were kept in a secure storage facility in Chicoutimi. Assay data are reported electronically from AGAT to Glen Eagle.
The 2012 drill core was stored in a facility that was later sold, after which time everything was unfortunately levelled, and all drill core was lost. The 2014 remaining half-drill core pieces were returned to the drill core box for archival purposes and the drill core boxes were later cross-piled in a secure yard in Saguenay City, Québec, and partially used for a bulk sample and mineralogical studies.
P&E Mining Consultants Inc. First Phosphate Corp., Lac Orignal Phosphate Property, Report No. 429 | Page 82 of 211 |
8.2 Sample Preparation and Analyses
Samples received at the AGAT preparation facility in Sudbury were carefully assessed and processed through the Sample Preparation Department. Each sample was first weighed and then the entire sample crushed to 75% passing 2 mm, before being split by riffle or rotary sample divider to 250 g and pulverized to 85% passing 75 μm. The samples were analyzed for all oxides, including P2O5, by Lithium Borate Fusion – Summation of Oxides method with ICP-OES finish (AGAT Code 201076). This method has assay range limits of 0.005% to 100% P2O5.
AGAT is an independent lab that has developed and implemented a Quality Management System (“QMS”) at each of its locations, designed to ensure the production of consistently reliable data. The QMS covers all laboratory activities and takes into consideration the requirements of ISO standards. AGAT maintains ISO registrations and accreditations. ISO registration and accreditation provide independent verification that a QMS is in operation at the location in question. AGAT Laboratories is certified to ISO 9001:2015 standards and is accredited, for specific tests, to ISO/IEC 17025:2017 standards.
8.3 Quality Assurance/Quality Control Review
8.3.1 2012 and 2014 Quality Assurance/Quality Control
The quality assurance/quality control (“QA/QC”) procedures employed by Glen Eagle during the 2012 and 2014 drilling programs at Lac Orignal included the insertion of homemade reference material (“RM”) and blanks into the drill hole sample stream.
8.3.1.1 Performance of Homemade Reference Materials
Due to the absence of commercially available reference material certified for P2O5, Glen Eagle prepared two reference materials of differing P2O5 grades to monitor the accuracy of drill core sample analyses at the primary lab. The Company collected two mineralized field samples from the Property, weighing approximately 15 kg each, and sent the two samples to AGAT in Mississauga, Ontario, where two RMs were prepared (one low-grade and one high-grade). When received by AGAT, the 15 kg samples were crushed to 90% passing 2 mm, and then pulverized to 85% passing 200 mesh (75 µm). A series of major element analyses (Lithium Borate Fusion - Summation of Oxides with an ICP-OES finish) were carried out on a total of 30 representative sub-samples split from each bulk sample, with ten sub-samples each analyzed over a period of three days. Individually packaged RMs were prepared for use by the Company, so as to mitigate the settling of heavy minerals (such as magnetite and ilmenite), by placing 100 g of representative pulverized sub-samples into sealed bags. Results from the analyses undertaken at AGAT are presented in Table 8.1.

Company personnel routinely inserted one of the two homemade RMs into the drill core sample stream at a rate of approximately one in 40 samples. Criteria for assessing RM performance are based as follows. Data falling within ±2 standard deviations from the calculated mean value pass. Data falling outside ±3 standard deviations from the calculated mean value, or two consecutive data points falling between ±2 and ±3 standard deviations on the same side of the mean, fail.
Performance of both RMs was generally satisfactory, with three failures only observed for the STD-LOW RM (results are presented in Figures 8.1 and 8.2). No issues are evident for the STD-HIGH RM. However, a positive bias of 6.9% is observed in the data for the lower-grade STD-LOW RM. Taking into consideration that characterization studies of the RMs were undertaken at a single laboratory only, which is also the Company’s primary laboratory for the 2012 and 2014 drill core sample analyses, further round-robin characterization of the RMs and check analyses of drill core sample results are warranted.
The Author of this Report considers that the RM data demonstrate acceptable accuracy in the 2012 and 2014 Lac Orignal data.

8.3.1.2 Performance of Blank Material
Glen Eagle utilized an ornamental marble stone purchased from Canadian Tire as a blank material for the Project in 2012 and 2014. Blanks were routinely inserted into the drill core sample stream at a rate of approximately one every 40 samples.
All blank data for P2O5 were reviewed by the Author. If the assayed value in the certificate was indicated as being less than detection limit, the value was assigned the value of one-half the detection limit for data treatment purposes. An upper tolerance limit of ten times the detection limit was set. There were 76 AGAT data points to examine.
Results for the blank data are presented in Figure 8.3. The majority of data plots at or below the set tolerance limits and the Author does not consider contamination to be an issue in the 2012 and 2014 drill hole sample data.

8.3.1.3 Performance of Laboratory Pulp Duplicates
Field duplicates were not inserted into the sample stream by Glen Eagle during the 2012 and 2014 drilling campaigns at the Property. However, laboratory duplicate data for P2O5 were reviewed by the Author for the 2012 and 2014 sampling. The data were scatter graphed and the coefficient of determination (“R2”) and average coefficient of variation (“CVAVE”) were used to estimate precision (Figures 8.4 and 8.5). Duplicate samples with combined means of <15 times the detection limit, where higher grade variations nearer to the detection limit are more likely to occur, were included in the CVAVE data, as there was only one data point that plotted above the acceptable range and its influence was considered negligible (Figure 8.5). The resultant R2 value for P2O5 was estimated at 0.993 (Figure 8.4) and the CVAVE at 4.9% (Figure 8.5). The Author considers that the AGAT lab pulp duplicate data show acceptable precision at pulp level.

8.4 | CONCLUSION |
The Authors recommend the following to be undertaken during future sampling at Lac Orignal:
1. | Round-robin characterization of the RMs at multiple reputable laboratories to obtain more robust performance data; |
2. | The routine and systematic insertion of field and coarse reject duplicates into the sampling stream; and |
3. | Check analyses of 5% to 10% of drill core samples taken at the Project, past and future, ensuring to include adequate QC samples to monitor umpire laboratory performance. |
Included within the current Mineral Resource data are 54 trench and channel samples (R-Series data) taken from outcrops at the Property. The Author has not reviewed the sample preparation, security and analytical procedures for these data. However, the Author considers that the four assays included in the constrained resource data (0.2% of the overall constrained data) to be of little or no material impact to the data.
In the opinion of the Author, sample preparation, security and analytical procedures for the 2012 to 2014 drilling and re-assaying programs at the Lac Orignal Project were adequate and examination of QA/QC results for all recent sampling indicates no significant issues with accuracy, contamination, or precision in the data. The Author considers the data to be of good quality and satisfactory for use in the current Mineral Resource Estimate.

9.0 Data Verification
9.1 Drill Hole, Trench and Channel Database Verification
9.1.1 Assay Verification
Verification of drill hole, trench and channel assay data entry was performed by the Author on 2,025 assay intervals for P2O5. Data from drill holes completed in 2012 and 2014, and all 54 trench and channel samples were verified. The 2,025 verified intervals were checked against original digital assay laboratory certificates provided directly to the Author by AGAT. The checked assays represent 33.2% of the entire database of 3,216 samples, and 68.8% of the constrained data of 1,656 samples.
Errors were observed in 19 database samples and are summarized as follows:
● | Duplicate samples were noted in holes LO-12-10 and LO-12-12 (sample number E5198701); |
● | The grades of eight samples in hole LO-14-25 (from 54 m to 66 m) were entered incorrectly and disagreed with AGAT lab certificate values and drill log data for this hole; and |
● | Discrepancies were noted between AGAT certificate and database values in ten trench/channel samples (trench/channel data affected: R1-A, R1-B, R1-C, R1-D, R1-E, R-2, R-18, R-19, R-20 and R-21). |
All errors were reported to First Phosphate and subsequently corrected in the database. The Author does not consider the discrepancies to have a significant impact on the data.
9.1.2 Drill Hole Data Verification
The Author randomly selected six out of a total of 61 of the 2012 and 2014 drill holes included in the database (representing 11.3% of all data and 13% of the constrained data) for checking against the original “From-To” intervals, lithology descriptions, and down-hole deviation measurements in the original drill logs. No errors were observed in the data.
The Author also validated the Mineral Resource database by checking for inconsistencies in analytical units, duplicate entries, interval, length or distance values less than or equal to zero, blank or zero-value assay results, out-of-sequence intervals, intervals or distances greater than the reported drill hole length, inappropriate collar locations, survey and missing intervals and coordinate fields. A few minor errors were identified and corrected in the database.

9.2 2022 P&E Site Visit and Independent Sampling
The Lac Orignal Project was visited by Mr. Antoine Yassa, P.Geo., on July 7 and 8, 2022, for the purpose of completing a site visit that included viewing drilling sites and outcrops, GPS collar location verifications, discussions, and due diligence sampling.
Mr. Yassa collected nine samples from three diamond drill holes during the July 7 and 8, 2022, site visit. All samples were selected from holes drilled in 2014. No drill core from the 2012 drilling program was available for verification sampling, due to the sale of the drill core storage facility and subsequent demolishing of the facility.
A range of high, medium, and low-grade samples were selected from the stored drill core. Samples were collected by taking a quarter of the previously split NQ drill core with the other quarter core remaining in the drill core box. Individual samples were placed in plastic bags with a uniquely numbered tag, after which all samples were collectively placed in a larger bag and shipped by DICOM, directly to Actlabs in Ancaster, Ontario for analysis. In addition, a bulk sample of over 250 kg was also collected and delivered for metallurgical testing at SGS, Québec City.
Requested analyses for the due diligence samples included bulk density by the wet immersion method, followed by sample preparation and whole-rock analysis (Actlabs code 4B) for Lithium Borate Fusion / ICP-OES. Actlabs is an independent laboratory. The Actlabs’ Quality System is accredited to international quality standards through ISO/IEC 17025:2017 and ISO 9001:2015. The accreditation program includes ongoing audits, which verify the QA system and all applicable registered test methods. Actlabs is also accredited by Health Canada.
Results of the Lac Orignal site visit due diligence samples are presented in Figure 9.1.

9.3 Conclusion
The Author considers that there is good correlation between the P2O5 assay values in First Phosphate’s database and the independent verification samples collected and analyzed at Actlabs. The author also considers that sufficient verification of the Project data has been undertaken and that the supplied data are of good quality and suitable for use in the current Mineral Resource Estimate.

The distribution of the minerals by size suggests the following:
● | The concentration of apatite in the finest fraction suggests that desliming would be detrimental to apatite recovery. Desliming is a common step in processing minerals of this type, but may not be appropriate in this case; |
● | As a first process step, the iron oxides (probably mainly magnetite) could be effectively removed/recovered by low intensity magnetic separation (“LIMS”); |
● | Ilmenite may also be recovered by magnetic separation. Ilmenite is typically a paramagnetic mineral and would be susceptible to high intensity magnetic separation (“HIMS”). Trace amounts of ilmenite could be removed from an apatite concentrate and recovered from apatite flotation tailings; and |

3 Other minerals include sphalerite, titanite and miscellaneous oxides
P&E Mining Consultants Inc. First Phosphate Corp., Lac Orignal Phosphate Property, Report No. 429 | Page 96 of 211 |
● | Pyrite concentrates in the fine fractions is a potential contaminant of an apatite concentrate. Pyrite could be targeted for removed using a strong xanthate flotation agent. |
10.2.2 Apatite and Associated Minerals
Apatite is the principal mineral of interest and mineralogical analyses indicated its significant presence. As listed in Table 10.2, 13.4% of the composite sample is apatite.
Given that the composite assayed 5.55% P2O5, the calculated content of the apatite is:
5.55/0.134 = 41.4% P2O5.
This amount of P2O5 is very close to the theoretical content of fluorapatite – 41.82% P2O5.
The results of preliminary TIMA x-ray scanning of four apatite crystals by SGS are summarized in Table 10.3.

These preliminary results indicate that the apatite varies in elemental content, including P2O5. Crystal No. 1 indicates the presence of high-purity apatite.
More intensive scanning by SEM (scanning electron microscopy) of a larger number of minerals including apatite, ilmenite, magnetite, and titanomagnetite (Fe3-xTixO4) was conducted by SGS. Titanomagnetite is common in some igneous rocks and is a solid solution between magnetite and ulvospinel (Fe3TiO4). Select results are summarized in Table 10.4.

The SEM results confirm that the apatite is fluoro-apatite and contains a low level of impurities. Similarly, the magnetite contains minor concentrations of what would be considered impurities. The ilmenite contains minor amounts of magnesium and silica. Potentially of more significance for the consideration of ilmenite as a separate product, is some close association of ilmenite with titanomagnetite as shown by the SEM-recorded image in Figure 10.2. (SEM analysis points 1, 3 and 6 are titanomagnetite; 2, 4 and 5 ilmenite; the black surrounding material is epoxy.)

10.2.3 Mineral Liberation and Exposure
QEMSCAN assessments were completed on liberation and exposure of apatite, ilmenite and iron oxides. The following example apatite criteria were used is this assessment:
● | Pure apatite: 100% liberated and free. |
● | Free apatite: >95% apatite in a particle. |
● | Liberated apatite: >80% to <95% apatite. |
The results for apatite in a sample of composite ground to a P80 of 120 µm are summarized in Figure 10.3. The results shown in Figure 10.2 indicate that, in order to produce a high-grade concentrate at high recovery (90%), additional grinding should be considered. The results for Ti oxides, principally ilmenite, are summarized in Figure 10.4.

The ilmenite results also indicate that supplementary grinding will be required. A similar conclusion may be allocated to the potential production of a high-grade magnetite concentrate. A LIMS concentrate could be reground to increase the free magnetite to >45%.
10.3 Mineral Processing Testwork
10.3.1 Grinding Tests
The Bond Ball Mill test resulted in a Ball Mill Work Index (BWI) value of 15.1 kWh/t. This result suggests a moderately hard material. The Abrasion Index was determined to be 0.291. A SAG-mill Circuit Specific Energy (SCSE) of 9.76 kWh/t was determined, a value shown by the JKTech data base as being average. These data can be used to estimate grinding requirements for conventional SAG-Ball Mill circuits.
The specific gravity of the composite mineralization was determined to be 3.28.
10.3.2 LIMS Magnetic Separation
Following grinding to a P80 of 120 µm, the ground material was submitted to Low Intensity Magnetic Separation (LIMS) to remove the magnetite. The iron oxide mineral content had been determined to be 11.8%. Assuming all of the Fe-Oxide is magnetite, >95% of the magnetite was removed and <3% of the P2O5 was taken with the magnetite concentrate (Table 10.5).
The LIMS magnetic concentrate was subject to upgrading in a Davis Tube device. A Davis Tube is able to separate magnetically susceptible materials from non-magnetics with a high intensity field applied to a small sample of LIMS concentrate. The results on three size ranges are summarized in Table 10.6.
The Davis Tube upgrading indicated that a concentrate grading 86% Fe3O4(89% Fe2O3) could be produced. The sulphur content remained high at >2%. However, the high content could readily be reduced by xanthate flotation. A test sulphide flotation produced a concentrate containing 98% Fe2O3 and 0.11% S.
10.3.3 Flotation Concentration
Seven flotation tests have been performed and the results of the first seven tests were available as of the effective date of this Report. All tests were initiated with thick, stage conditioning of “non-mags” with soda ash, starch and fatty acid. Initial flotation tests investigated rougher kinetics and whether a first stage flotation of mica was warranted. A “reverse flotation” of silicates was also attempted.
The sixth flotation test (F6) included two cleaner stages with the addition of caustic soda (NaOH) and sodium silicate in the cleaning stages. The promising results of F6 are summarized in Table 10.7.

Preliminary results from the subsequent flotation test (F7) indicate a marginally better phosphate concentration result of 37.4% P2O5at over 92% recovery.
The cleaner concentrate and cleaner tails samples from an earlier flotation test (F5) shown in Figure 10.5 indicate that dark silicate and iron minerals can be readily rejected from the final apatite concentrate.
Figure 10.5 | F5 Flotation Test Products |
(left – first cleaner tails, right – apatite concentrate)
In reviewing the results of the chemical analyses of the composite, the mineralogical examinations and the results of the magnetic separation and the preliminary flotation tests, the following can be concluded:
● | The Lac Orignal Deposit contains very low levels of potentially hazardous components, such as arsenic, heavy metals and radioactivity; |
● | The apatite mineral content has the potential to be concentrated as a high-grade product and at high recovery. The F6 and F7 concentrate grades of 36.6% P2O5at 93.4% recovery and 37.4% P2O5 at 92.2% recovery, respectively, suggests there remains potential for significant improvement of apatite grade by rejection of silicates and of ilmenite; |
● | Potential methods to improve apatite grade while maintaining high recovery are regrinding of a rougher flotation concentrate, such as, |
○ | “Polishing” (gentle grinding) of rougher flotation concentrate (as applied in tests F6 and F7), |
○ | Additional stages of cleaning in the flotation process, |
P&E Mining Consultants Inc. First Phosphate Corp., Lac Orignal Phosphate Property, Report No. 429 | Page 105 of 211 |
○ | High intensity magnetic separation of ilmenite from the apatite concentrate, and |
○ | Reverse flotation of silicates from apatite concentrate. |
Locked cycle testing (Test F8) obtained an apatite concentrate grading 40.3% P2O5 at 92.2% recovery. The apatite concentrate was found to be mostly free of the main contaminants of concern.
The Lac Orignal Deposit test results indicate the potential for recovering two additional mineral products: 1) a magnetite concentrate; and 2) an ilmenite concentrate.
A magnetite concentrate can be achieved by two stages of magnetic separation plus a potential grinding and classification to meet market requirements, such as for heavy media separation. Over 50% of the magnetite may be recoverable and saleable.
Most of the ilmenite mineralization will report to the apatite rougher and to cleaner tails. Ilmenite, being a paramagnetic mineral, could be concentrated with a combination of HIMS with gravity and (or) froth flotation techniques. Mineralogical examination of the ground composite indicated that 50% of the ilmenite was “pure” and 30% was “free”. This result suggests that with strong concentration methods, that over 50% recovery of high-grade ilmenite concentrate (at 47% TiO2 – 90% ilmenite) might be anticipated. However, the locked-cycle test indicated that a concentrate containing <40% TiO2 at a 23% recovery was achievable. A need for additional testing was indicated to reduce ilmenite losses to tails and to reject silicates and iron oxides from the concentrate.

11.0 Mineral Resource Estimates
11.1 Introduction
The purpose of this Report section is to summarize the Initial Mineral Resource Estimate for the Lac Orignal Project in Québec of First Phosphate Corp. The Mineral Resource Estimate presented herein is reported in accordance with § 229.1302(d)(1)(iii)(A) (Item 1302(d)(1)(iii)(A) of Regulation S-K into Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resources and has been estimated in conformity with the generally accepted CIM “Estimation of Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserves Best Practices” guidelines (2019). Mineral Resources are not Mineral Reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. There is no guarantee that all or any part of the Mineral Resource will be converted to a Mineral Reserve. Confidence in the estimate of an Inferred Mineral Resource is insufficient to allow the meaningful application of technical and economic parameters or to enable an evaluation of economic viability worthy of public disclosure. Mineral Resources may be affected by further infill and exploration drilling that may result in increases or decreases in subsequent Mineral Resource Estimates.
This Mineral Resource Estimate was based on information and data supplied by First Phosphate Corp., and was undertaken by Yungang Wu, P.Geo., and Eugene Puritch, P.Eng., FEC, CET of P&E Mining Consultants Inc. of Brampton, Ontario. This Mineral Resource Estimate was supervised, reviewed and accepted by Antoine Yassa, P.Geo., an independent Qualified Person in terms of NI 43-101. Messrs Wu, Puritch and Yassa are considered to be the “Authors” of this Technical Report Summary section. The effective date of this Mineral Resource Estimate is October 3, 2022.
11.2 Database
All drilling/channel and assay data were provided in the form of Excel data files by First Phosphate Corp. The GEOVIA GEMS™ V6.8.4 database for this Mineral Resource Estimate, compiled by the Authors, consisted of 63 drill holes and 17 surface channel samples totalling 7,984 m and 149.5 m respectively. A total of 49 drill holes (6,393 m) and five channel samples (27 m) intersected the mineralization wireframes used for the Mineral Resource Estimate. Six drill holes in the database completed more than 3-km north of the Mineral Resource area were not utilized in this Mineral Resource Estimate. A drill hole plan is shown in Appendix A.
The drill hole and channel sample database contained P2O5, Fe2O3 and TiO2assays. The basic statistics for all raw assays in the Mineral Resource Estimate area are presented in Table 11.1.

11.3 Data Verification
Mineral Resource database checks were completed according to the verification procedures and protocols described in Sections 8 and 8 of this Technical Report Summary. The Authors are of the opinion that the supplied database is suitable for Mineral Resource estimation.
11.4 Wireframe Interpretation
The Lac Orignal Deposit mineralized wireframe boundaries were determined from lithology, structure, and grade boundary interpretation from visual inspection of drill hole cross-sections. Three mineralized wireframes were developed and referred to as Main, HW (hanging wall) and FW (footwall) Zones. The mineralized wireframes were constructed on 100 m spaced vertical cross-sections with computer screen digitizing polylines on drill hole cross-sections in GEMS™ by the Authors. The mineralized wireframe outlines were influenced by the selection of mineralized material above 2.5% P2O5that demonstrated a lithological and structural zonal continuity along strike and down-dip. In some cases, mineralization <2.5% P2O5 was included for the purpose of maintaining zone continuity. On each cross-section, polyline interpretations were digitized from drill hole to drill hole, but not typically extended more than 100 m into untested territory. Minimum constrained width for interpretation was 3 m of drill core length.
The resulting Main Mineral Resource mineralized wireframe is 2,230 m long, 50 m to 445 m thick (true thickness is 2.97 m to 99.5 m), strikes east-west, and dips 25° to 30° north. The mineralized wireframes were utilized as constraining boundaries during Mineral Resource estimation for purposes of rock coding, statistical analysis and compositing limits. The 3-D mineralized wireframes are presented in Appendix B.
P&E Mining Consultants Inc. First Phosphate Corp., Lac Orignal Phosphate Property, Report No. 429 | Page 108 of 211 |
The topographic and overburden surfaces were created using LiDAR results from the Québec government website (www.diffusion.mffp.gouv.qc.ca) and drill hole logs. All mineralized wireframes were truncated at the top of bedrock surface.
11.5 Rock Code Determination
A unique rock code was assigned to each mineralized wireframe in the Mineral Resource model as presented in Table 11.2.

11.6 Mineralized Wireframe Constrained Assays
Mineralized wireframe constrained assays were back coded in the assay database with rock codes that were derived from intersections of the mineralized wireframes and drill holes. The basic statistics of the mineralized wireframe constrained assays are presented in Table 14.3.

11.7 Compositing
In order to regularize the assay sampling intervals for grade interpolation, a 1.5 m compositing length was selected for the drill hole/channel sample intervals that fell within the constraints of the above-described Mineral Resource mineralized wireframes. The composites were calculated for P2O5, Fe2O3 and TiO2 over 1.5 m lengths starting at the first point of intersection between the assay data drill hole/channel sample and the hanging wall of the 3-D mineralized wireframe constraint. The compositing process was halted on exit from the footwall of the mineralized wireframe constraint. Explicit missing samples (intervals without results like lost core or poor recovery) were treated as nulls based on the nature of mineralization, whereas implicit missing samples (unsampled intervals) were assigned a background value of 0.01%. If the last composite interval was <0.50 m, the composite length was adjusted to make all composite intervals of the mineralized wireframe intercept equal. The resulting composite length ranged from 1.44 m to 1.52 m. This process would not introduce any short sample bias into the grade interpolation process. The constrained composite data were extracted to a point file for a grade capping analysis. The composite statistics are summarized in Table 11.4.

11.8 Grade Capping
Grade capping was investigated on the 1.5 m composite values in the database within the constraining mineralized wireframes to ensure that the possible influence of erratic high-grade values did not bias the database and subsequent grade interpolation. Log-normal histograms and log-probability plots were generated for each mineralized wireframe and the resulting selected graphs are exhibited in Appendix C. The capped composite statistics are summarized in Table 11.4. The grade capping values are detailed in Table 11.5. The capped composites were utilized to develop variograms and for block model grade interpolation.

11.9 Variography
A variography analysis was attempted as a guide to determining a grade interpolation search strategy. Directional variograms were developed using the P2O5 composites for the Main wireframe. Selected variograms are presented in Appendix D.
Continuity ellipses based on the observed ranges were subsequently generated and utilized as the basis for grade estimation search ranges, distance weighting calculations and Mineral Resource classification criteria.
11.10 Bulk Density
The bulk density data used for the creation of the bulk density block model was derived from nine samples taken by the Authors that were analyzed by Activation Laboratories on Ancaster, ON. The average bulk density was 3.04 t/m3.
11.11 Block Modelling
The Lac Orignal block model was constructed using GEOVIA GEMS™ V6.8.4 modelling software. The block model origin and block size are presented in Table 11.6. The block model consists of separate model attributes for estimated P2O5, Fe2O3and TiO2 grade, rock type (mineralized wireframes), volume percent, bulk density, and classification.
Table 11.6 Block Model Definition | |||
Direction | Origin | No. of Blocks | Block Size (m) |
X | 383,950 | 540 | 5 |
Y | 5,436,600 | 200 | 5 |
Z | 680 | 64 | 5 |
Rotation | no rotation |
All blocks in the rock type block model were initialled with a waste rock code of 99, corresponding to the surrounding country rocks. The mineralized wireframes were used to code all blocks within the rock type block model that contain ≥1% volume within the mineralized wireframe.
These blocks were assigned the rock type codes presented in Table 14.2. The overburden and topographic surfaces were subsequently utilized to assign rock codes 10 and 0, corresponding overburden and air respectively, to all blocks ≥50% above those surfaces.
P&E Mining Consultants Inc. First Phosphate Corp., Lac Orignal Phosphate Property, Report No. 429 | Page 113 of 211 |
A volume percent block model was set up to accurately represent the volume and subsequent tonnage that was occupied by each block inside the constraining mineralized wireframes. As a result, the mineralized wireframe boundary was properly represented by the volume percent model ability to measure individual infinitely variable block inclusion percentages within that mineralized wireframe. The minimum percentage of the mineralized block was set to 1%. The P2O5, Fe2O3 and TiO2 grade blocks were interpolated with Inverse Distance Squared (“ID2”). Nearest Neighbour (“NN”) was utilized for validation. Multiple passes were executed for the grade interpolation to progressively capture the sample points to avoid over-smoothing and preserve local grade variability. Search ranges and directions were based on the variograms. Grade blocks were interpolated using the parameters in Table 11.7.
Table 11.7 Block Model Interpolation Parameters | ||||||
Pass | Major Range (m) | Semi- major Range (m) | Minor (m) | Max No. per Hole | Min No. Samples | Max No. Samples |
I | 60 | 30 | 15 | 3 | 7 | 12 |
II | 100 | 50 | 20 | 3 | 4 | 12 |
III | 400 | 200 | 80 | 3 | 1 | 12 |
Selected cross-sections and plans of the P2O5 grade blocks are presented in Appendix E.
The average bulk density of 3.04 t/m3 was applied to the interpolated grade blocks.
11.12 Mineral Resource Classification
It is the Author’s opinion that the drilling, assaying and exploration work on the Lac Orignal Project support this Mineral Resource Estimate and are sufficient to indicate a reasonable potential for economic extraction, and thus it is qualified as a Mineral Resource in accordance with § 229.1302(d)(1)(iii)(A) (Item 1302(d)(1)(iii)(A) of Regulation S-K into Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resources. . The Mineral Resource is classified as Indicated and Inferred, based on the geological interpretation, variogram performance and drill hole spacing. The Indicated Mineral Resource is classified for the blocks interpolated with the Pass I and II, which used at least four composites from a minimum of two holes; and Inferred Mineral Resource is classified for all remaining grade populated blocks within the mineralized wireframes. The classifications were adjusted manually to reasonably reflect the distribution of each classification. Selected classification block cross-sections and plans are attached in Appendix F.
11.13 P2O5Cut-off Calculation
The Lac Orignal Mineral Resource Estimate was derived from applying P2O5 percent cut-off values to the block models and reporting the resulting tonnes and grades for potentially mineable areas. The following parameters were used to calculate the cut-off value that determines the open pit mining potentially economic portions of the constrained mineralization. An optimized pit shell is presented in Appendix G.
P&E Mining Consultants Inc. First Phosphate Corp., Lac Orignal Phosphate Property, Report No. 429 | Page 114 of 211 |
The P2O5 Cut-off value is calculated with parameters below:
US$:C$ Exchange Rate | 0.80 |
P2O5 Price | US$200/t (approximate two-year trailing average) |
P2O5 Process Recovery | 75% |
Processing Cost | C$9.00/t |
G&A | C$3.25/t |
Mining Cost | C$2.50/t |
Pit Slope | 45° |
The P2O5 cut-off for potential open pit mining is calculated at = 2.5%.
11.14 Mineral Resource Estimate
The resulting pit-constrained Mineral Resource Estimate at the effective date of this Technical Report is tabulated in Table 11.8. The Authors are of the opinion that the mineralization of the Lac Orignal Project is potentially amenable to open pit economic extraction.

Note: P2O5 = phosphorus pentoxide, Fe2O3 = iron oxide, TiO2 = titanium dioxide.
1. Mineral Resources, which are not Mineral Reserves, do not have demonstrated economic viability.
2. The estimate of Mineral Resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant issues.
3. The Inferred Mineral Resource in this estimate has a lower level of confidence than that applied to an Indicated Mineral Resource and must not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. It is reasonably expected that the majority of the Inferred Mineral Resource could be upgraded to an Indicated Mineral Resource with continued exploration.
4. The Mineral Resources in this Technical Report were estimated using the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM), CIM Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves, Definitions (2014) and Best Practices Guidelines (2019) prepared by the CIM Standing Committee on Reserve Definitions and adopted by the CIM Council.
The optimized pit-constrained Mineral Resource Estimate is sensitive to the selection of a reporting P2O5 cut-off value and are demonstrated in Table 11.9.

11.15 Confirmation of Estimate
The block model was validated using a number of industry standard methods, including visual and statistical methods, as follows:
● | Visual examination of composites and block grades on successive plans and sections were performed on-screen, in order to confirm that the block models correctly reflect the distribution of composite grades. The review of estimation parameters included: |
○ | Number of composites used for grade estimation; |
○ | Number of drill holes used for grade estimation; |
○ | Number of passes used for grade estimation; |
○ | Mean value of the composites used; |
○ | Mean distance to sample used; |
○ | Actual distance to closest point; and |
○ | Grade of true closest point. |
● | A comparison of P2O5 mean composite grades with the block model for the Main wireframe is presented in Table 11.10. |

Notes: P2O5 = phosphorus pentoxide.
ID2 = block model grades were interpolated using Inverse Distance Squared
NN= block model grades were interpolated using Nearest Neighbour.
The comparisons above show the average grades of P2O5block models were slightly lower than that of composites used for the grade estimation. These were most likely due to the smoothing by the grade interpolation process. The block model values will be more representative than the composites, due to 3-D spatial distribution characteristics of the block model.

17.0 Environmental Studies, PermitTING AND PLANS, NEGOTIATIONS OR AGREEMENTS WITH LOCAL INDIVIDUALS OR GROUPS
This Section of the Report outlines the existing environment and social conditions surrounding, and down gradient from the Lac Orignal Property area. The following are summaries of the environmental requirements related to the mining and processing of mineralized material, management of waste rock, tailings and facility water, development of infrastructure, and control of air emissions and noise.
The regulatory context applicable to the Property, including the environmental impact assessment (EIA) process and most of the preliminary permitting requirements are also summarized.
Social and community requirements are also indicated.
17.1 Current Project Concepts
The current and basic First Phosphate Project concepts include the following:
● | Open-pit mining of the Lac Orignal Mineral Resource; |
● | Processing of the mineralized material close to the mine site, in order to produce a high purity phosphate (apatite) mineral concentrate. The processing will include grinding and magnetic separation of iron minerals, followed by a selective froth flotation process to produce the apatite concentrate; |
● | Concentrate dewatering (and partial drying) for shipment by trucks to a port facility on the south shore of the Saguenay River and transfer by ship to a customer’s phosphoric acid production facility with associated upgrading capacity to produce high purity phosphoric acid for global markets; |
● | Management of mine waste rock, tailings and process water at the mine site; and |
● | Construction of mine and process plant facilities, electric power lines, mine site worker accommodations and support facilities, and all-weather roads to facilitate mine site access and transport of concentrate to a Saguenay River port. |
Opportunities for expanding the Project are being investigated and include:
Additional mineral processing steps at the mine site.
● | Production and sale of a magnetite concentrate from the first stage of mineral processing; and |
● | Production and sale of an ilmenite (iron-titanium) concentrate from the apatite flotation tailings. |
P&E Mining Consultants Inc. First Phosphate Corp., Lac Orignal Phosphate Property, Report No. 429 | Page 125 of 211 |
These two activities could provide additional Project revenue and reduce the environmental footprint and impact of tailings management at the mine site.
Transport of concentrate from mine to a port facility.
● | Apatite concentrate transportation by slurry pipeline from the mine site to the port. The concentrate would be dewatered and dried at the port. This procedure would eliminate concentrate shipment by truck through communities and over a Saguenay bridge crossing; or |
● | Transport of the apatite concentrate to a port to be developed on the north shore of the Saguenay. This would significantly reduce the community impact of concentrate shipment. |
Processing of the apatite concentrate, at or near the port facility.
● | Phosphoric acid could be produced locally near the Port. The selected process could be the conventional “wet” process, in which the apatite would be reacted with sulphuric acid to produce phosphoric acid and gypsum; |
● | The gypsum that would be produced is expected to be high purity and suitable for use in construction materials. Radioactive elements (radium and uranium) common in globally produced phospho-gypsums are present at less than “background” concentrations in the Lac Orignal Deposit. The revenue for this gypsum product may be limited, but its use would reduce waste management requirements; and |
● | The phosphoric acid would be upgraded on-site to meet requirements for fertilizer and a portion of the phosphoric acid would subsequently be refined to meet specifications for food and lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries. |
This Section of the Report considers only a basic Project; that is, open pit mining at the
Lac Orignal site, a high throughput rate (~15,000 tpd) processing plant, and transportation of approximately 1,500 tpd of phosphate concentrate by truck to an all-weather port on the south shore of the Saguenay River.
17.2 | Project Mine Site |
The Lac Orignal Project is located 85 km north of the Saguenay River and 8-9 km east of a conservation area known as Zec Onatchiway. Currently, access to the Project site is provided by logging roads. The area had been significantly deforested by past logging activity and second growth forest is predominant, as shown in Figure 17.1.5

Figure 17.1 Lac Orignal Phosphate Property Area

No mining has taken place on or near the Property. Surface sampling and diamond drilling (56 holes) have occurred at the location. No infrastructure is located at or nearby the site. A connection location to electrical lines is approximately 40 km south. There are no permanent residences at or near the mine site. Hunting and fishing camps only are known in the area and the interruption of traditional area rights will be considered in mine development. Except for the past logging activity, the Lac Orignal Project can be classified as undisturbed and “greenfield”.
Whereas water resources, such as lakes, steams and wetlands, are abundant in the area, the development and operation of the mine is expected to be designed to have minimal impact on these resources. The Lac Orignal Project is located with the Fjord du Saguenay Regional County Municipality (RCM). It is anticipated that mining in this area will be subject to authorization by this municipality.
17.2 Environmental and Permitting
The Lac Orignal Project will be developed with the consideration of the highest environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) principles. The application of these principles is anticipated to provide support for environmental assessment, permitting, and social acceptance.
P&E Mining Consultants Inc. First Phosphate Corp., Lac Orignal Phosphate Property, Report No. 429 | Page 127 of 211 |
A detailed Environmental Impact Assessment (“EIA”) of the Project will be required. A preamble for the EIA will be extensive baseline studies, including several biological and physical components, species at risk, migratory birds, greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions and control, current land use, archeological, etc.
Avoidance of encroachment on lakes, streams and fish habitat will be important. In accordance of Directive 019 of the Ministère du Dévelopment Durable, de l’Environnement, de la Faune et des Parcs (“MDDEFP”), it is anticipated that Project waste material, including waste rock and tailings will be classified as low risk. No significant concentrations of elements of environment and health concerns (i.e., As, Pb, Cd, Hg, U) have been found in drill core from the Lac Orignal Phosphate Deposit. Although the Deposit contains a small amount of iron sulphide, there appears to be adequate alkalinity in the rock to prevent metal leaching (“ML”) and acid rock drainage (“ARD”).
An EIA (prepared in French and in English), which will contain a detailed Project description, will be filed with the MDDEFP. Normally, questions and clarification are required by MDDEFP. When this process is completed, the Project would progress to public hearings under Bureau d’Audiences Publiques sur l’Environnement (“BAPE”). Successful BAPE hearings would be followed by Ministerial Approval of the Project.
A series of Provincial Permits and Compliances will be required with reference to:
● | Mining Act of Québec, including regulations for pits and quarries. |
● | Forest Act. |
● | Watercourse and dam safety acts. |
● | Transportation and management of dangerous fuels and substances. |
● | Water and wastewater management. |
● | Tailings and waste rock management. |
A costed and funded closure and reclamation plan with an associated monitoring proposal will also be required.
It is anticipated that a federal environmental assessment process will not be triggered by the Project. Considerations of the non-metallic nature of the Deposit, absence of toxic substances, non-application of Metal Mining Effluent Regulations (“MMER”), and avoidance of fish habitat disturbance, would confirm avoidance of Canadian Environmental Assessment Act (“CEAA”) 2012 and 2021 revisions. Federal permits are required for the application and use of explosives, port management of fuels, and marine shipping of products.
17.3 Community Relations and Consultations
Consultations and information sessions will be needed with First Nations and the local communities, during Project development. The Lac Orignal Deposit is located within the ancestral territory (Nitassinan) of the Betsiamites Innu Nation. Access from and product transport route to the Saguenay area port would take place in the Nitassinan of the Mashteuiatsh Pessamit and Essipit. Consultations have been initiated with these First Nations.
P&E Mining Consultants Inc. First Phosphate Corp., Lac Orignal Phosphate Property, Report No. 429 | Page 128 of 211 |
Significant consultations and Project information will also need to be exchanged with the communities of Dolbeau-Mistassini, Alma, and Saguenay-Lac St Jean. The transportation of concentrate to a Saguenay port, as much as 1,500 tpd, may emerge as a concern.
The main objectives of consultation and communication activity will be to:
● | Inform all communities potentially affected by the Project of the Project details, options and timing; |
● | Communicate the results of baseline studies; |
● | Document land use at the mine, transportation route(s) and at the port; |
● | Assess all foreseen social and environmental impacts of the Project during development, operation and on closure/site reclamation; and |
● | Improve the Project design and social acceptability. |
Information sharing and consultation activities will continue throughout the Project development and permitting processes and the construction, operation and closure phases.
17.4 Timing and Potential for Success
The completion of baseline studies, environmental assessment, and permitting can be anticipated to exceed two years, and possibly more.
No significant environmental or health risks are anticipated to emerge from the considerations of mining and processing the Project’s mineralized material and concentrate transport from mine to port. Potential concerns that may arise from frequent trucks passing by communities, may be overcome or reduced by special truck designs, time and frequency of trucks passing, and the selection of Saguenay Port location.
Minimal environmental or permitting restrictions for the development and operation of the Project are anticipated.

20.0 ADJACENT PROPERTIES
There are very few properties in the vicinity of the Lac Orignal Property and most of them are explored for iron and titanium potential and, to a less extent, for base metals. Most of those properties are owned by individual prospectors or businessmen.
In the southeast corner of the Property, there are nine claims enclosed within the Lac Orignal claim block. That property is explored by another company for REE within silicified paragneiss.
The Lac a Paul Phosphate Project is located 90 km north of Lac Orignal. Lac a Paul is a Feasibility Study-level project owned by Arianne Phosphate Inc (Cegertec Worley Parsons et al., 2013). The phosphate zones are hosted in the same anorthosite complex as Lac Orignal.
The only metallic mine in the Lac Orignal Property region is the Niobec niobium mine operated by Magris Resources. The Niobec Mine is located 80 km south-southwest of Lac Orignal, in Saint-Honoré, Québec, just north of Saguenay.

22.0 INTERPRETATION AND CONCLUSIONS
The Lac Orignal Property, Québec, consists of 1,399 CDC claims with a total area of 77,529 ha. An additional 16 claims are under request and pending approval. All the claims of the Lac Orignal Property are registered with the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources (MERN). Of the 1,399 claims constituting the Property, 1,246 claims were map-staked by First Phosphate, which holds 100% interest in these claims. The additional 153 claims were purchased under full title from third parties. All of these claims are free of NSR royalties and all other forms of royalty.
The Lac Orignal Property benefits from road access and close proximity to grid power and the City of Saguenay. The Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean region has a population of 280,000 inhabitants (2021). The region has an extensive industrial, agricultural, forestry and tourist industries, including a significant hydro-power dam system. Port facilities are available within 100 km at the City of Saguenay and 340 km at the City of Trois Riviere on the St. Lawrence River.
Lac Orignal is a Proterozoic-age anorthosite-hosted magmatic phosphate deposit. The Lac Orignal Property region is underlain by anorthosites that are part of the regional Proterozoic Lac-Saint-Jean Anorthosite (“LSJA”) Complex. The LSJA occurs in the central part of the Grenville Province. The anorthosite plutons of the LSJA Complex are composed mainly of plagioclase and variable, but much smaller amounts of pyroxene and olivine. Apart from anorthosite, the LSJA Complex contains minor leuconorite, leucotroctolite, norite, olivine-bearing gabbro, gabbro, pyroxenite, peridotite, dunite, nelsonite (magnetite, ilmenite and apatite), magnetitite, and rare charnockite-mangerite units.
Lac Orignal, Lac Vanel (2 km north of Lac Orignal), and Mirepoix (6 km northeast) are the three main phosphate showings on the Property. All three showings have been drilled, but only at Lac Orignal has a phosphate deposit been defined. The Lac Orignal Deposit is hosted in an oxide (magnetite and ilmenite) gabbro unit at least 1 km long and up to 70 m thick. Lac Orignal Deposit area rock samples consist of plagioclase, orthopyroxene, clinopyroxene, ilmenite, magnetite, apatite, and biotite. The mafic silicate phases occur as intercumulus phases. Apatite, ilmenite and magnetite are ubiquitous accessory minerals and may reach major proportions of the rocks. Apatite is the principal phosphate-bearing mineral at Lac Orignal.
The most recent diamond drilling and surface trenching programs were completed by Glen Eagle (previous operator) on the Property in 2012 and 2014. In 2012, a surface prospecting and trenching program discovered the Lac Vanel occurrence, approximately 2 km north of the Lac Orignal occurrence, with grades of up to slightly >5% P2O5. Following this discovery, Glen Eagle completed 43 drill holes totalling 4,611.5 m, which defined a phosphate mineral (apatite) deposit within a km long oxide gabbro host unit. The best assay intersection intervals were 4.7% P2O5 over 70.5 m in drill hole LO-12-03, 5.4% P2O5 in drill hole LO-12-08, 5.3% P2O5 over 64.5 m in drill hole LO-12-12, 5.7% P2O5 in drill hole LO-12-13, and 5.7% P2O5 over 61 in drill hole LO-12-25 at Lac Orignal, and 3.6% P2O5 in drill hole LO-12-22 at Lac Vanel.
In 2014, Glen Eagle completed a second drill program consisting of 19 new drill holes and deepening of 11 drill holes from the 2012 drill program. The total amount of drilling in the 2014 program was 3,330 m. The best assay intersection intervals were 5.54% P2O5 over 99 m in drill hole LO-14-21, 5.61% P2O5 in drill hole LO-14-23, 5.83% P2O5in drill hole LO-14-24, and 5.53% P2O5 over 69 m in drill hole LO-14-26 at Lac Orignal. In addition, 21 trenches were excavated on the Lac Orignal Showing area bedrock for channel sampling and assay. The best mineralized intervals were 4.38% P2O5 over 12.0 m and 5.86% P2O5 over 7.5 m in trench R-2, 4.84% P2O5over 9 m in trench R-4, and 5.02% P2O5 over 7.5 m in R-5. The Lac Orignal phosphate deposit remains open to expansion by drilling down-dip and possibly along strike to the west. Due to its strong magnetic character, the host oxide gabbro is readily detectable in magnetic geophysical surveys.

The Lac Property was visited by Mr. Antoine Yassa, P.Geo., and a Qualified Person under the regulations of NI 43-101, on July 7 and July 8, 2022, to complete an independent site visit and a data verification sampling program. In the Report Author’s opinion, the sample preparation, analytical procedures, security and QA/QC program meet industry standards, and that the data are of good quality and satisfactory for use in the Mineral Resource Estimate reported in this Report. It is recommended that the Company continue with the current QC protocol, which includes the insertion of appropriate certified reference materials, blanks and duplicates. Furthermore, independent due diligence sampling shows acceptable correlation with the original assays and it is this Report Author’s opinion that the Company’s original results are suitable for use in the current Mineral Resource Estimate.
The results of chemical analyses of a drill core composite, of mineralogical examinations, and of the magnetic separation and preliminary flotation tests, indicate that the apatite mineral content has the potential to be concentrated as a high-grade product and at high recovery. The F6 and F7 flotation steps produced concentrate grades of 36.6% P2O5 at 93.4% and 37.4% P2O5 at 92.2% recoveries, respectively, which suggests potential for significant improvement of apatite grade by rejection of silicates and of ilmenite. An apatite grade of at least 38% P2O5 at over 90% recovery can be reasonably anticipated. There is also potential for recovering two additional mineral products:1) a magnetite concentrate; and 2) an ilmenite concentrate. A magnetite concentrate can be achieved by magnetic separation plus a potential grinding and classification to meet market requirements, such as heavy media separation. Over 50% of the magnetite should be recoverable and saleable. Most of the ilmenite mineralization will report to the apatite rougher and to cleaner tails. Ilmenite could be concentrated with a combination of high intensity magnetic separation, gravity and (or) froth flotation techniques. Over 70% recovery of high-grade ilmenite concentrate (47% TiO2) might be anticipated.
The database compiled by the Author of this Technical Report Summary consisted of 63 drill holes and 17 surface channels totalling 7,984 m and 149.5 m respectively. A total of 49 drill holes (6,393 m) and five channels (27 m) intersected the mineralization wireframes used for the Mineral Resource Estimate. The database contained 2,880 assays for percent P2O5.
The Initial Mineral Resource Estimate is reported with an effective date of October 3, 2022. The Lac Orignal Phosphate Deposit is estimated to have a pit-constrained (estimated at 2.5% P2O5 cut-off) Indicated Mineral Resource of 15.8 Mt at grades of 5.18% P2O5, 23.90% Fe2O3 and 4.23% TiO2, and an Inferred pit-constrained Mineral Resource of 33.2 Mt at grades of 5.06% P2O5, 22.55% Fe2O3 and 4.16% TiO2. The Author considers that the mineralization at the Lac Orignal Deposit is potentially amenable to open pit economic extraction.
P&E Mining Consultants Inc. First Phosphate Corp., Lac Orignal Phosphate Property, Report No. 429 | Page 135 of 211 |
The Mineral Resources in this Technical Report Summary were estimated in accordance with § 229.1302(d)(1)(iii)(A) (Item 1302(d)(1)(iii)(A) of Regulation S-K into Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resources. Mineral Resources, which are not Mineral Reserves, do not have demonstrated economic viability. The estimate of Mineral Resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant issues. The Inferred Mineral Resource component of this estimate has a lower level of confidence than that applied to the Indicated Mineral Resource and must not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. It is reasonably expected that the majority of the Inferred Mineral Resources could be converted to Indicated Mineral Resources with continued exploration.

23.0 RECOMMENDATIONS
Additional exploration and study expenditures are warranted to improve the viability of the Lac Orignal Phosphate Project and advance it through a Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”). The Authors recommend that First Phosphate undertake a two-phase exploration and development program, as follows:
Phase 1 is recommended by the Author to finish ongoing metallurgical testwork programs and to complete Preliminary Economic Assessment, in order to develop a mine and site operations plan as a basis for future, more advanced engineering and economic studies of the Lac Orignal Phosphate Project. The PEA will also determine the requirements for additional drilling and exploration work to upgrade the current Inferred Mineral Resources to Indicate Mineral Resources and Indicated Mineral Resources to Measured Mineral Resources. The Company re-commenced permitting and baseline environmental studies and community consultation activities in 2021 and it is recommended that work continue on these initiatives.
Phase 2 is recommended by the Author to include the additional drilling and exploration work to convert the Inferred Mineral Resource to an Indicated Mineral Resource, expand the current Mineral Resource, and add new Mineral Resources. The current Mineral Resource is generally open to expansion by drilling down-dip. The Inferred Mineral Resource at Lac Orignal can be drilled to an Indicated Mineral Resource. Mineralized zones at Lac Vanel and Mirepoix remain to be sufficiently drilled for Mineral Resource estimation. Additional metallurgical testwork on fresh bulk sample materials is warranted to complete the mineral processing work and to further test and refine magnetite, ilmenite and phosphoric acid production parameters.
Helicopter-borne high-resolution magnetic surveys have reliably mapped the favourable oxide gabbro host unit of the Lac Orignal Deposit. Coverage should be expanded eastward to include the Mirepoix Showings area. Ground magnetic and perhaps gravity surveys may be appropriate where more detailed coverage is required.
With a view to a future, post-PEA level studies, the Author recommends that environmental baseline studies commence on the Lac Orignal Property and stakeholder engagement and consultations be carried out. The baseline studies should focus on aquatic, terrestrial and hydrological monitoring and documentation. A formal community, government, and stakeholder consultation plan should be developed and implemented, and all activities documented.
Additional and more general recommendations in regard to future sampling at Lac Orignal are as follows:
1. | Round-robin characterization of the assay reference materials at multiple reputable laboratories to obtain more robust performance data; |
2. | The routine and systematic insertion of field and coarse reject duplicates into the sampling stream; and |
3. | Check analyses of 5% to 10% of drill core samples taken at the Project, past and future, ensuring to include adequate QC samples to monitor umpire laboratory performance. |
P&E Mining Consultants Inc. First Phosphate Corp., Lac Orignal Phosphate Property, Report No. 429 | Page 137 of 211 |
The costs to complete the Phase 1 and Phase 2 programs are estimated to be C$495,000 (Table 23.1) and C$2.3M (Table 23.2), respectively. The Phase 1 and Phase 2 programs should be completed in the next 12 to 15 months. The Phase 2 Exploration Program is contingent upon the results of the Phase 1 Exploration Program.
