About Fairmont
Fairmont's Quebec properties cover numerous occurrences of high-grade titaniferous magnetite with vanadium. Where these occurrences have been tested they have display exceptional uniformity with respect to grade. These occurrences are of considerable interest due to their proximity to tide water, with the Grand Anse Sea Terminal at the Port of Saguenay located within 100km of all of Fairmont's properties.
Fairmont recently received the Certificate of Authorization which allows for 300,000 tonnes annually of aggregate production from the Buttercup property. Pursuant to the Certificate of Authorization, Fairmont's plan is to extract 300,000 tonnes per year of titano-magnetite aggregate from the Buttercup Property.
The commencement of production on the Buttercup Property will not be based on a NI 43-101 mineral resource or reserve estimate, a preliminary economic assessment, pre-feasibility study or feasibility study. As a result, there is no assurance that Fairmont will be able to economically extract the titano-magnetite aggregate from the Buttercup Property. The commencement of production on the Buttercup Property is subject to Fairmont obtaining sales contracts for the purchase of titano-magnetite aggregate and sufficient financing.
