John Passalacqua, CEO of First Phosphate (OTCQB: FRSPF | CSE: PHOS) points out that very few investors are currently paying attention to the LFP battery space and the critical importance of high purity phosphate, an area currently dominated by China. As the US-China trade war escalates and China curbs exports, it is more important that ever for the LFP battery chain to move Westward, and First Phosphate is leading the way in creating a fully-integrated system to capitalize on a supply squeeze that could send high purity phosphate prices soaring.First Phosphate Website: https://firstphosphate.comFollow First Phosphate on X: https://x.com/FirstPhosphateFollow John Passalacqua on Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-passalacqua-964092257Disclaimer: Commodity Culture was compensated by First Phosphate for producing this interview.
