/CNW/ -
Arianne Phosphate (the "Company" or "Arianne")
(TSXV: DAN) (OTCQX: DRRSF) (FRANKFURT: JE9N), a development-stage phosphate mining
company, advancing the Lac à Paul project in
Quebec's
Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean region, is pleased
to announce that the Company has partnered, by way of a Memorandum of Understanding ("MoU"),
with Travertine Technologies Inc. ("Travertine") for the production of purified phosphoric acid ("PPA")
by combining Travertine's proprietary process with Arianne's high-purity phosphate concentrate.
Travertine's phosphate process produces PPA from phosphate concentrate using recycled sulfuric
acid, eliminating a substantial cost associated with PPA production. Further, this process eliminates
phosphogypsum waste, while producing carbon-neutral or carbon-negative materials for cements,
making it environmentally friendly. Arianne's phosphate concentrate is a perfect feedstock for this
process given its high-purity, low-contaminant nature. Current work is on-going to advance
engineering on a Phase 1 small commercial facility expected to produce PPA for use in lithium iron
phosphate ("LFP") cathode active materials ("CAM") production.
"We are excited to be working with Travertine on this venture," said
Brian Ostroff
, Head of Strategic
and Business Initiatives. "This partnership plays directly into Arianne's strategy of not only being a
miner of phosphate but in also being a producer of purified phosphoric acid thus capturing the
opportunity and unlocking the substantial economic benefits. Arianne has concluded on this as a first
step in its goal of partnering with players that have technologies and operations that will allow the
Company to benefit directly from the growing demand for purified phosphoric acid, a necessity for
the LFP battery. Deals like this will allow Arianne and its partners to aid in the West's requirement
for a secure supply of battery materials."
Travertine is currently operating an RD&D and engineering facility in
Colorado
and a demonstration
plant in
New York State
. Investors in Travertine include the building materials company Holcim, as
well as Clean Energy Ventures, Bidra Innovation Ventures and the Grantham Foundation. Work has
been ongoing with Arianne for over a year as the Companies look to progress the partnership
toward commercialization. The partnership roadmap advances through progressively larger PPA
production, gaining greater economies of scale, while building an all-North American supply chain
through offtake partnerships with LFP CAM, battery, and Auto OEMs.
"The global energy transition is driving huge demand growth for critical elements such as
phosphorus," said
Laura Lammers
, PhD, founder and CEO of Travertine. "Partnering with Arianne is
an important step toward our goal of building a new circular economy at scale for the next
generation of phosphates production."
Arianne Phosphate's Lac à Paul project hosts the world's largest greenfield phosphate deposit. Due
to the phosphate deposit being igneous, and thus geologically rare, the Company can produce a
very high-purity, low-contaminant phosphate concentrate that allows for easy conversion into purified
phosphoric acid. The Company has spent over
$100M
advancing the project and has received
funding and investment from the Quebec Government. As well, the Company recently received
conditional approval for a grant of up to
$735,000
from the Government of
Canada
to further its
work on the production of purified phosphoric acid. Lac à Paul is the only greenfield North American
project that is permitted. Working with Travertine will advance the opportunity to target the Western
PPA market, one currently underserved and dependent on Chinese imports.
The MoU is non-binding and sets out how the companies will partner on the development and
commercialization of a PPA facility, as well as formalize their respective economic share of the
revenues generated by the facility.
About Arianne Phosphate:
Arianne Phosphate ("Arianne Phosphate Inc.") (
www.arianne-inc.com
) is developing the Lac à Paul
phosphate deposits located approximately 200 km north of the Saguenay/Lac St. Jean area
of Quebec,
Canada
. These deposits will produce a high-quality igneous apatite concentrate grading
39% P
2
O
5
with little or no contaminants (Feasibility Study released in 2013). The Company has
213,714,811 shares outstanding.
About Travertine:
Travertine was founded in 2022 to solve one or the most pressing problems in the mining industry:
producing vital elements without creating mountains of waste. Their proprietary electrochemical
technology completely converts phosphate ore concentrate into valuable products – phosphoric acid,
cementitious materials, and co-produced critical elements – closing the loop between the extraction
and construction industries for cleaner chemical production. Their gypsum-free, solvent-free process
will become the standard for next generation, cleaner purified phosphoric acid production. To learn

within the meaning of applicable securities regulations in
Canada
and
the United States
(collectively, "forward-looking information"). Forward-looking information includes, but is
not limited to, anticipated quality and production of the apatite concentrate at the Lac à Paul
project, anticipated production of PPA. Often, but not always, forward-looking information
can be identified by the use of words such as "plans", "expects, "is expected", "budget",
"scheduled", "estimates", forecasts", "intends", "anticipates", or "believes", or the negatives
