Canada Fluorspar Inc's ("CFI") strategy centres on increasing shareholder value by pursuing and developing high-potential industrial mineral projects with its current focus on Fluorspar. CFI also prudently manages its balance sheet and expenses and continues to look at growth opportunities.
CFI is developing a large fluorspar project in St. Lawrence, Newfoundland, Canada and is moving forward to reactivate existing underground fluorspar mines, expand an existing mill, construct a new, environmentally-sound Tailings Management Facility (TMF), and build a new deep-water marine terminal in the outer St. Lawrence Harbour for the export of fluorspar concentrate product (Acidspar). The project is anticipated to produce between 120,000 and 180,000 tonnes of fluorspar filtercake concentrate per year.
The international fluorspar market consumes approximately 5.6 million tonnes of Fluorspar per annum with an estimated value of US $1.6 billion. The mineral is used in the production of hydrofluoric acid which is the primary feedstock for the manufacture of virtually all organic and inorganic fluorine-containing compounds including fluorpolymers and fluorocarbons. Some examples are anesthetics, non-stick coatings, and fire retardant clothing. It is also used in the production of electronic components, aluminum, and steel.
