Q&A:
What makes the DuSolo story so
interesting compared the hundreds of junior mining companies out there?
DuSolo
Fertilizers Inc. is a vertically integrated producer of phosphate-based
fertilizers in Brazil. There are a number of factors that set us apart from
other junior mining companies, including:
• Location –
1) Brazil
is one of the world’s fastest growing agricultural economies
2) Brazil
currently imports more than 50% of phosphate fertilizers from it uses overseas,
adding significant transportation and logistics-related costs to fertilizer
prices
3) Our
flagship project - Bomfim is located right at the center of the Cerrado region,
which is the largest agricultural region in the world, and has a large demand
for fertilizers
• We are currently in production and
have sales contracts in place for the 2015 planting season
• Our assets host at surface, high-grade
phosphate mineralization, which allows for a simple mining and processing
method (very low CAPEX and high profit margins)
• Our Direct Application Natural
Fertilizer (DANF) product is in high demand in the region
• DuSolo is the only DANF producer
within 500 km radius surrounding the project’s area
• By being a domestic fertilizer
producer, DuSolo is able to offer a premium product at a significantly lower
cost
Why is phosphate a lucrative commodity
market?
• The growing global population is
creating an ever-increasing demand for food. Agricultural production requires
the use of fertilizers from three essential minerals Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus
(P) and Potassium (K) or (“NPK”)
• Demand for phosphate-based
fertilizers is rising, while existing global phosphate reserves are declining
• It’s estimated that “peak
phosphorus” production will occur by 2030
• Brazil has a substantial shortage
of domestically produced phosphate fertilizers; as a result the government
considers it to be a strategic commodity
Please give us some insights about the
advantages to do business in the Cerrado region in Brazil.
• The Cerrado region is home to the
largest arable land mass in the world. Majority of future increases in global
food production is expected to come from this region
• The tropical rains in the Cerrado
wash away nutrients, leaving the soil poor for farming and needing to be
fertilized frequently
• Cerrado is land locked, therefore
making fertilizer imports very expensive
• Within a 500 km radius of DuSolo’s
processing facility:
o 1.2 million tonnes of phosrock is
being consumed every year
o 585 farms and agricultural centres
exist
o DANF consumption is growing at a
compound annual growth rate f 6%
o No domestic production
What can investors expect in 2015?
At the
start of the year, DuSolo was producing DANF and entering into sales contracts
with local farmers. Major goals for 2015 include:
• Doubling capacity at our processing
facility to 160,000 tonnes per year
• Entering into additional DANF
product sales contracts
• Producing cash flow from operations
• Updating the National Instrument
43-101 Resource Estimate to include results from the 2015 drill campaign
Can you tell us some more about your
management team and board?
The
management team has extensive financial, technical and capital markets
experience. Many members of DuSolo’s
technical and sales team, including the COO, VP of Exploration, Product
Development Manager and Sales and Marketing Manager have all worked with
phosphate industry in Brazil before. Their experiences complement one another
as they cover different disciplines – exploration, project development,
production and sales and marketing. Both the COO and VP of Exploration were
responsible for making significant phosphate discoveries in the past.

What
about your current financial situation and the financial outlook?
>>
DuSolo completed a C$6.8 million financing in late 2014. Proceeds were used to
obtain all necessary permits, secure the production facility and begin mining
and processing phosphate to DANF
>> As
of March 3, 2015, cash was C$3.2 million
>>
DuSolo has entered into sales contracts for 51,100 tonnes of DANF, with
expected proceeds of approximately C$4.5 million
>>
The Company anticipates securing additional sales contracts in the coming
months
>>
The Company plans to become self sufficient this year and to rely on its own resources
going forward
Are you
able to give us some insights about your long-term goals?
The Company
has two main long term goals:
1. Continue
to increase its NI 43-101 Resource Estimate through exploration drilling
2. Capture
30% of the marketplace for phosphate-based fertilizer in the Cerrado within the
next 3 years by increasing production, entering into additional sales contracts
and offering farmers in the region a preferred product at competitive pricing
