    Next Steps

    Foremost’s DSO (Direct Ship Ore) strategy is where bulk ore is blasted from the ground and shipped directly to a mine, then transformed into concentrate prior to shipping, providing an opportunity to potentially fast-track a revenue stream pre-mine. The Company has started the preliminary planning, permitting and engagement processes necessary to move towards its next phase - shovel ready. With potential future government funding for the proposed project, Foremost anticipates it will then be able to start building necessary infrastructure to facilitate extraction.  

    Foremost’s application is timely given Canada has seen notable recent press coverage in the critical minerals sector. On February 5, 2024, it was announced that Canada claimed the top spot in BloombergNEF’s global ranking of the 30 countries on track to develop secure, reliable, and sustainable supply chains for lithium-ion batteries, outranking China for the first time. Additionally, on February 13, 2024, Canada’s Natural Resources and Energy Minister, Jonathan Wilkinson, announced plans to accelerate critical mineral mining permitting processes, as well as provide for additional funding, in an effort to bolster the Canadian energy sector.

    The application deadline for the Critical Mineral Infrastructure Fund is February 29, 2024.
