About Champion Iron
Limited
Champion, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Quebec Iron Ore
Inc., owns and operates the Bloom Lake Mining Complex, located on
the south end of the Labrador Trough, approximately 13 km north of
Fermont, Québec. Bloom Lake is an
open-pit operation with two concentrators that primarily source
energy from renewable hydroelectric power. The two concentrators
have a combined nameplate capacity of 15 Mtpa and produce a low
contaminant high-grade 66.2% Fe iron ore concentrate with a proven
ability to produce a 67.5% Fe direct reduction quality concentrate.
In January 2023, the Company
announced the positive findings of a study evaluating upgrading
half of the Bloom Lake mine capacity to a direct reduction quality
pellet feed iron ore and approved an initial budget to advance the
project. Bloom Lake's high-grade and low contaminant iron ore
products have attracted a premium to the Platts IODEX 62% Fe iron
ore benchmark. The Company ships iron ore concentrate from Bloom
Lake by rail, to a ship loading port in Sept-Îles, Québec, and has
sold its iron ore concentrate to customers globally, including in
China, Japan, the Middle
East, Europe, South Korea, India and Canada. In addition to Bloom Lake, Champion
owns a portfolio of exploration and development projects in the
Labrador Trough, including the Kamistiatusset Project, located a
few kilometres south-east of Bloom Lake, and the Consolidated Fire
Lake North iron ore project, located approximately 40 km south of
Bloom Lake.
