First Phosphate Corp (NASDAQ:PHOS)(CSE:PHOS)(OTCQX:FRSPF) has uplisted to the Nasdaq Global Market, with CEO John Passalacqua telling Proactive's Stephen Gunnion that the move transforms the company into a primary US security, opening it up to portfolio managers who can only buy US-listed stocks or securities on specific exchanges. Passalacqua described the uplisting as consistent with the company transitioning from small cap to mid cap status. Passalacqua said the Nasdaq Global Market listing improves both liquidity and visibility as First Phosphate advances its Bégin-Lamarche phosphate project, and provides access to US and international capital markets. He noted that many of the company's anticipated customers and business partners are based in the US and Europe, making a presence on a leading transnational exchange strategically important. On operational milestones, Passalacqua said the company's priority is delivering a feasibility study, which it hopes to complete by end of 2026 or early 2027. He added that First Phosphate is fully capitalized to move through permitting and reach a final investment decision over the next couple of years. First Phosphate's stated ambition is to build a North American mine-to-market lithium iron phosphate (LFP) supply chain. Passalacqua said the Nasdaq listing supports that goal by giving the company the profile of larger peers in the critical minerals and technology space. #FirstPhosphate #PHOS #phosphate #LFP #criticalMinerals #Nasdaq #miningStocks #batteryMaterials #Canada #resourceInvesting

In this episode, John Passalacqua, CEO of First Phosphate Corp. explains two major government-backed catalysts advancing the company's flagship Bégin-Lamarche igneous phosphate project in Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean, Québec. First, Bégin-Lamarche was selected for "Filon" support status with Québec's Ministry of Natural Resources and Forests, an initiative designed to accelerate mining projects in the province. Second, First Phosphate finalized agreements for an addition $4.84 million in non-repayable contributions from the Government of Canada, via Natural Resources Canada's First and Last Mile Fund, to advance the Bégin-Lamarche deposit. This new funding adds to the $16.7 million already committed by NRCan in March 2026 through the Global Partnerships Initiative — bringing total recent federal backing north of $21.5M. Both announcements reflect Ottawa's and Québec's shared push to build out domestic critical minerals supply chains for the North American LFP battery sector — de-risking permitting timelines and infrastructure costs for First Phosphate ahead of construction.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of the WTR Small Cap Spotlight, First Phosphate CEO John Passalacqua joins WTR's Tim Gerdeman and Dmitry Silversteyn to discuss the company's strengthened financial position following an oversubscribed $17.7 million private placement, $21.5 million in non-repayable government grants from Natural Resources Canada, and letters of interest from international export credit agencies representing up to C$275 million in potential project financing. The conversation covers the company's definitive offtake agreements securing a minimum of 200,000 tons per year of phosphate concentrate and 60,000 tons per year of battery-grade phosphoric acid, G7 Critical Minerals recognition, Quebec fast-track permitting status, and the path toward a targeted 2029 production start. Passalacqua also explains why phosphate — not lithium or graphite — is emerging as the real bottleneck for North American LFP battery production.

First Phosphate Corp. CEO John Passalacqua joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company's latest federal funding milestone after securing $4.84 million in non-repayable contributions from the Government of Canada through Natural Resources Canada's First and Last Mile Fund to advance the Bégin-Lamarche Phosphate Project in Quebec. Passalacqua said the new funding builds on the $16.7 million previously awarded by NRCan in March 2026 through the Global Partnerships Initiative, further strengthening government support for developing the company's high-purity phosphate deposit. Approximately $3.07 million will fund studies related to power transmission infrastructure, including site selection, feasibility work, environmental assessments, public and Indigenous consultations, and the design of a 161-kV transmission line and substations in the Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean region. A further $1.77 million will support planning for transportation infrastructure, including preparatory work for a new mine access road and studies evaluating upgrades to regional bypass roads connecting the Bégin-Lamarche project to rail infrastructure and the Port of Saguenay. The work will include technical, environmental, and economic studies, along with traffic analysis and community consultation. Management believes the additional funding will accelerate key infrastructure planning while supporting the long-term development of the Bégin-Lamarche project as a strategic source of high-purity phosphate for the North American lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery supply chain. #proactiveinvestors #firstphosphatecorp #cse #phos #otcqx #frspf #frspf #BeginLamarche #LFPBatteries #CriticalMinerals #Phosphate #QuebecMining #CleanEnergy #EnergyTransition #MiningNews #canada #governmentofcaanda #NaturalResourcesCanada'sFirstandLastMileFund

This is episode 5 of a six-part series on food imperialism. Welcome to Edible Empire, a podcast by Planet Pulse Pacific about the hidden cost of our food.Beyond recipes lies a story of power. From colonial plantations to modern agribusiness, this podcast reveals how the pursuit of food has redrawn maps, exploited people, and still shapes who holds control today.This episode explores how New Zealand's dairy industry links local landscapes to global extraction, ecological harm, and the wider machinery of food imperialism.New Zealand's image of clean, green pastures hides one of the world's most intensive dairy industries. Behind each glass of milk there is a hidden web of global extraction: phosphate mined from occupied Western Sahara, palm kernel imported from deforested Southeast Asia, and polluted rivers flowing through Māori ancestral lands. This episode traces how New Zealand's dairy boom reshapes both local ecosystems and distant economies, from illegally occupied territories in West Africa to political power in New Zealand. Through the story of “white gold”, we uncover how even the purest landscapes are bound into the machinery of food imperialism.Here, we discuss the environmentally destructive and geopolitically fraught supply chains connecting intensive dairy production in Aotearoa New Zealand with phosphate mining in the illegally occupied territory of Western Sahara. Our three expert guests detail how New Zealand's export-driven commodity model creates intense global market pressures for corporate profit and high-yield volume. Freshwater ecologist Dr Mike Joy exposes the catastrophic local consequences of this system, explaining how excessive synthetic nitrogen and fertiliser inputs poison rivers, disrupt aquatic ecosystems, and contaminate drinking water. Geographer Dr Milena Bojovic unpacks the structural traps forcing farmers into continual intensification, which in turn fuels a dependency on rare, internationally contested mineral resources.Finally, researcher and artist Dr Crystall Bennes traces the physical journey of this phosphate rock, revealing how Western agricultural high yields rely heavily on wealth extracted under colonial conditions from the Boo Cra mine, highlighting the profound human and environmental costs borne by displaced Sahrawi populations.Make sure you subscribe so you don't miss out on the next episode!Resources from this episode:https://ojs.victoria.ac.nz/pq/article/view/9629/8507https://people.wgtn.ac.nz/mike.joy https://www.gofundme.com/f/almasar-library-education-centre-for-children-and-women https://wsrw.org/en https://www.crystalbennes.com/ To view all the links to the websites and documents, visit the show notes on our website.Please support our work and enable us to deliver more content by buying us a coffee or becoming a member of Athletes for Nature.Follow us on Instagram and Facebook, subscribe to this podcast, and share this episode with your friends and family.

Phosphate removers, enzymes, clarifiers, sequestrants, scale inhibitors, flocculants and stain treatments can all deliver real value—when they address an actual, diagnosed condition.In this episode of the Talking Pools Podcast, Rudy Stankowitz explains why the bottle should never become the protocol. Before adding any specialty chemical to a pool, service professionals should answer three questions: Will it meaningfully benefit this customer?  Will it become a pain in the ass for me or my technicians?  Can my company make money providing the treatment? Rudy breaks down the hidden costs that are often ignored: return visits, filter cleaning, vacuuming, fuel, labor and the time required to explain an expected reaction to the customer. A $20 bottle is no longer a $20 treatment when it creates another hour of work.He also explains why specialty treatments should not automatically be buried inside a flat monthly service rate. Customers are not paying for possession of the bottle. They are paying for the professional who knows when to use it, how much to use, what conditions are required, what side effects to expect and what to do when the treatment does not behave as planned.The episode also includes a message honoring the 2026 Top Ten Pool Industry Mentors and Rudy's final thoughts about his Reflecting Pool coating analysis reaching the White House—proof that sound technical work can matter far beyond the pool industry.In this episode Why mentorship means teaching people to think—not creating dependence  How specialty chemicals establish added value  Why every treatment should begin with a diagnosed condition  The danger of mistaking a visible reaction for proof  When phosphate removal makes professional and financial sense  Why predictable follow-up work belongs in the treatment price  How flat-rate chemical inclusion can hide value and destroy profit  Why pool professionals should sell outcomes—not bottles  Separating chemical problems from circulation, filtration and equipment problems  Why chemistry and physics remain unchanged by politics The three-question specialty chemical test Will it benefit the customer?  Will it become a pain in the ass for me?  Can I make money on it? Specialty chemicals are tools—not miracles, substitutes for proper maintenance or acts of absolution for neglected pools.Sponsored in part by Service Industry News, AquaStar Pool Products and BluRay XL.

Geopolitical conflict has put a strain on fertilizer supply chains, not least of which being phosphate products.

First Phosphate Corp. CEO John Passalacqua joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company's Bégin-Lamarche igneous rock phosphate project being granted Filon support status by Quebec's Ministry of Natural Resources and Forests (MRNF), a designation aimed at accelerating strategic mining projects in the province. Passalacqua said the Filon program is designed to foster collaboration between the company and government agencies, helping streamline discussions related to mining permits, authorizations, and key project development milestones. The initiative is part of Quebec's strategy to advance critical and strategic mineral projects. The province highlighted the Bégin-Lamarche project as an opportunity to transform Quebec's geological resources into an economic advantage by developing a high-purity phosphate deposit for the lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery sector. Officials said the project supports the province's vision of building a more innovative and resilient economy focused on future industries. Passalacqua welcomed the designation, noting that the project plays an important role in strengthening the North American LFP battery supply chain by providing a domestic source of high-purity phosphate, a key battery material. The Filon initiative was introduced under the Québec Strategy for the Development of Critical and Strategic Minerals 2025–2031, reflecting the province's commitment to accelerating projects that support the clean energy transition and critical minerals development. #proactiveinvestors #firstphosphatecorp #cse #phos #otcqx #frspf #frspf #BeginLamarche #LFPBatteries #CriticalMinerals #Phosphate #QuebecMining #CleanEnergy #EnergyTransition #MiningNews

Phosphate prices remain stubbornly high, and relief doesn't seem to be coming soon.

First Phosphate CEO John Passalacqua discusses how the recent small-cap volatility does not affect the fundamentals of First Phosphate due to the company's strong treasury. Passalacqua, a former trader and market maker, says geopolitical tensions and rate fears have driven a systemic selloff that often forces investors to sell winners, but he views it as a catharsis that flushes weak hands. He highlights First Phosphate's 24 to 36-month runway, citing over $30M cash in treasury plus access to a $16.7M Canadian government contribution and a recent $17.7M raise at C$2, totaling nearly $50M to reach feasibility (Q4-2026 or Q1-2027), permitting, and final investment decision. He updates on the OTCQX ADR (FPHOY) volume building and describes strong collaboration with local First Nations who are supportive. The company targets its Quebec high-purity phosphate mine producing in 2029 and is advancing plans for a purified phosphoric acid plant at Port Saguenay, with feasibility expected by. 00:00 Intro 00:39 Market Volatility View 02:23 Cash Runway Update 03:23 Why Shares Pulled Back 05:54 ADR Listing Explained 07:25 First Nations Partnerships 10:59 Community Chalet Concerns 12:19 Phosphoric Plant Plans 13:57 Feasibility Timeline 14:16 Wrap Up and Tickers Tickers: CSE: PHOS – FSE: KD0 – OTCQX: FRSPF – OTCQX-ADR: FPHOY Sign up for our free newsletter and receive interview transcripts, stock profiles and investment ideas: http://eepurl.com/cHxJ39 Sponsor First Phosphate pays Mining Stock Education a United States dollar ten thousand per month coverage fee.

In a key move for fertilizer tariffs, the Senate Finance Committee advanced five of the president's nominees to the International Trade Commission for confirmation.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of WTR Small Cap Spotlight, First Phosphate CEO John Passalacqua joins WTR's Tim Gerdeman and Dmitry Silversteyn to discuss the company's recent C$17.7 million financing, G7-backed investment and offtake agreements, and strategy to build a fully integrated North American lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery materials supply chain. The conversation covers project financing, commercial partnerships, upcoming development milestones, and what could drive the company's next phase of growth.

First Phosphate Corp. CEO John Passalacqua joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the successful closing of the final tranche of the company's non-brokered private placement, raising $17.7 million in gross proceeds to support development of its flagship Bégin-Lamarche phosphate project in Québec. Passalacqua said the financing included the issuance of 7.24 million flow-through shares, generating $14.48 million, and 1.61 million hard dollar units, raising an additional $3.22 million. With the completion of this financing, First Phosphate has now raised approximately $82.2 million since June 2022 through 11 management-led non-brokered financings, as well as proceeds from option and warrant exercises. The company plans to use the proceeds to advance its Bégin-Lamarche property in the Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean region of Québec, a high-purity igneous phosphate deposit that management believes is well positioned to support the growing North American lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery supply chain. The company also announced the return of Peter Kent to its Board of Directors. Kent, a former Canadian journalist, federal cabinet minister, and Conservative Member of Parliament, previously served as president, director, and advisor to First Phosphate and played a key role in the company's development. As part of the appointment, the company restructured its Audit Committee, with Kent replacing Passalacqua as a member. The committee is now chaired by Laurence W. Zeifman and includes Peter J. F. Nicholson and Peter Kent. Management said the strengthened balance sheet and board enhancements position First Phosphate to continue advancing its mine-to-market strategy for supplying high-purity phosphate to North America's expanding LFP battery industry. #proactiveinvestors #firstphosphatecorp #cse #phos #otcqx #frspf #frspf #BeginLamarche #LFPBatteries #CriticalMinerals #Phosphate #QuebecMining #EnergyTransition #BatteryMaterials #MiningNews #PrivatePlacement #NorthAmerica #peterkent

Stijn Schmitz welcomes Doug Casey to the show. Doug Casey is a Bestselling Author, Speculator, Founder of Casey Research, and Voluntarist Philosopher. The conversation opens with an analysis of the disconnect between geopolitical turmoil, specifically the disruption of oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz, and equity markets trading near all-time highs. Casey argues the recent de-escalation between the U.S. and Iran is likely temporary, as the core dispute between Israel and Iran remains unresolved. Despite this volatility, he remains bullish on oil, favoring oil and gas stocks due to their low representation in the market and high dividend yields, a sentiment he backs with his own investment strategy. Casey introduces his thesis of a “Greater Depression,” a period of declining real standards of living masked by a debt-fueled financial economy. He contrasts the struggling real economy, burdened by consumer and government debt, with the booming stock market, suggesting the current stability is unsustainable. Looking at long-term trends, he posits that all commodities historically trend toward zero in real terms as technology advances. However, he notes that commodities are currently the cheapest asset class compared to grossly overvalued stocks, bonds, and real estate, making them especially attractive. The discussion shifts to gold and silver, which Casey treats primarily as savings vehicles, noting the 55-year bull market is still intact. While he believes gold is no longer a great speculation at current prices, he finds mining stocks to be exceptionally undervalued, driven by industry-wide unpopularity and neglect from institutional investors. He extends this bullishness to agricultural commodities and fertilizers, deeming corn ultra-cheap and noting natural gas, a key input for urea, is also priced at a bargain in North America. For speculation, he expresses a strong preference for private placements and warrants in smaller, entrepreneur-led companies. The conversation concludes with a grim outlook for U.S. fiscal health, predicting rising interest rates driven by unsustainable deficits and a bond market that will eventually slip the Federal Reserve's control.

First Phosphate Corp. (CSE: PHOS | OTCQX: FRSPF) just landed a wave of international backing at the 52nd G7 Summit in Évian, France — and CEO John Passalacqua joins MSE to break down what it means for the company's mine-to-market LFP battery supply chain build-out in Quebec. This episode digs into the details of the agreements signed under the Critical Minerals Resilience and Production Alliance, including: • A letter of interest for up to CDN $275 million in guarantees from Denmark's export credit agency (EIFO) to help finance the Bégin-Lamarche mine • LOIs from Italy's SACE, CDP, and SIMEST, alongside engineering group MAIRE, to support First Phosphate's phosphoric acid plant at Port Saguenay using Ballestra technology • A definitive offtake agreement for a minimum of 200,000 tonnes per annum of phosphate concentrate from Bégin-Lamarche • A definitive offtake agreement for a minimum of 60,000 tonnes per annum of phosphoric acid from the Port Saguenay plant John explains how these deals fit into the broader G7 alliance launched by PM Carney in 2025, what each piece of financing and offtake actually de-risks for the project, where things stand on permitting and construction timelines, and why he believes First Phosphate is positioned to lead North America's push for a secure, traceable battery-grade phosphate supply chain. If you're tracking the critical minerals buildout, North American LFP battery supply chains, or First Phosphate specifically, this is a must-watch update straight from the source. 00:00 Intro 00:57 What the G7 Backing Means 02:33 Offtakes and Italy Partnership 04:19 Deal Terms Revenue and Pricing 05:27 Valuation and LFP Market Upside 08:31 Financing and Shareholder Demand 09:57 Timeline Catalysts and Execution 11:56 How the Alliance Came Together 14:07 Treasury and Capital Stack Press releases discussed: https://firstphosphate.com/first-phosphate-g7-investment-offtake-deals/ https://www.pm.gc.ca/en/news/backgrounders/2026/06/17/prime-minister-carney-secures-new-partnerships-defence-and-critical https://www.pm.gc.ca/en/news/statements/2026/06/17/g7-leaders-declaration-securing-supply-chains-critical-minerals https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/china-defends-critical-minerals-export-controls-after-g7-statement-2026-06-18/ Tickers: CSE: PHOS – FSE: KD0 – OTCQX: FRSPF – OTCQX-ADR: FPHOY Sign up for our free newsletter and receive interview transcripts, stock profiles and investment ideas: http://eepurl.com/cHxJ39 Sponsor First Phosphate pays Mining Stock Education a United States dollar ten thousand per month coverage fee.

AgCast is back — with new vigor but the same goal: bringing farmers and agricultural leaders together for conversations about the ideas, businesses, and decisions shaping the future of agriculture. In the first episode of the new season of AgCast, Chad Fiechter and Todd Kuethe sit down with Hunter Swisher, CEO and founder of Phospholutions, to explore one of the most important — and least understood — challenges facing modern agriculture: phosphate fertilizer. Phosphorus is essential for crop production, but it's also a finite resource controlled by a handful of countries around the world. As fertilizer prices remain a major concern for farmers, this conversation breaks down what's happening behind the scenes — from phosphate mining and global shipping routes to fertilizer production, supply chain disruptions, and what it could mean for farmers heading into future growing seasons. Hunter explains how Phospholutions is working to improve phosphate fertilizer efficiency, why traditional MAP and DAP fertilizers lose much of their value after application, and how new technology could help farmers produce more with fewer inputs. Chad and Todd also discuss: • Why fertilizer supply chains are more complicated than most farmers realize • How global events can impact input availability and prices on the farm • Why fertilizer innovation has been slower than other areas of agriculture • What farmers should understand about phosphate availability heading into 2027 • The future of ag technology, startups, and solving problems across the food system AgCast brings farmers and agricultural leaders together for conversations about the ideas, businesses, and decisions shaping the future of agriculture. Topics: fertilizer prices, phosphate fertilizer, MAP fertilizer, DAP fertilizer, farm inputs, agriculture supply chains, crop production, ag technology, farm profitability

Somewhere between the farm and your plate, the story of how your food is grown got hijacked. Not by farmers. By people who have never touched a seed, never watched a crop fail, never had to explain to their banker why the weather won. Dennis Bulani is a fourth-generation Saskatchewan farmer, CEO of The Rack -- one of Western Canada's most respected independent ag retailers -- founder of the Trust Your Plate movement, and author of What a Farmer Wants You to Know About Food. He sat in a room full of entrepreneurs in Arizona while a speaker told everyone that modern farming was poisoning the world. He went home and wrote a book about it. Nine in ten people trust farmers. One in five trust modern farming practices.

Send us Fan MailOn this week's Tuesday edition of Talking Pools, Andrea delivers a rapid-fire collection of pool industry myths, misconceptions, pet peeves, and hard-earned observations from the field. What started as an episode about common pool myths quickly evolved into a full-blown list of industry hot takes, terminology frustrations, safety reminders, and the kinds of misconceptions that refuse to die. Before diving into the chaos, Andrea discusses the brutal summer heat, challenges in the field, a commercial pool battling bug issues caused by water level problems, and announces her new merchandise store featuring designs such as "Mind Your Own Pool Business" and "I'm Your Pool Guy's Pool Guy." She also shares plans for subscriber-exclusive content and future Patreon support. The episode includes industry news from a Kentucky waterpark that was forced to drain and refill a lazy river following an equipment-related hazardous materials incident. Andrea also highlights an extensive list of upcoming pool, spa, aquatics, water safety, and trade events scheduled throughout late 2026 and early 2027. The main discussion centers on a collection of misconceptions that continue to frustrate pool professionals: Why calling every chlorine product "shock" can create dangerous chemical handling situations.  The difference between actual industry standards and practices simply passed down from technician to technician.  What professionals really mean when they say they "keep" chemistry at a certain level.  Why understanding active ingredients matters more than trusting marketing labels.  The truth about "chlorine lock" and why chlorine isn't actually locked.  When cyanuric acid levels become problematic and when they don't.  Common misunderstandings surrounding Total Dissolved Solids (TDS).  Why phosphates are not always the emergency many people make them out to be.  The reality that algae outbreaks are not always the fault of the service professional.  Misconceptions surrounding Virginia Graeme Baker (VGB) compliance and pool safety.  Why safety should never be optional in the pool industry.  Organisms that chlorine struggles to eliminate, including Cryptosporidium and Baylisascaris.  Why urine in pools is not as harmless as some people believe.  Limitations of salt system boost and super-chlorination modes.  A candid discussion on natural swimming pools and the health concerns they raise. Along the way, Andrea delivers plenty of humor, blunt opinions, practical field experience, and a reminder that many pool problems are far more nuanced than social media comments often suggest. Whether you're a service technician, pool operator, builder, or simply someone who enjoys industry debates, this episode offers a refreshing look at some of the most misunderstood topics in modern pool care. Topics Covered Pool chemistry myths  Shock vs chlorine terminology  Cyanuric acid misconceptions  Chlorine lock explained  Phosphates and algae control  TDS and water replacement  VGB compliance and safety  Saltwater pool operation  Commercial pool regulations  Natural pool debate  Industry standards vs tradition  Waterborne illness prevention  Pool service field experiences SponsorsThe 2026 Talking Pools Podcast Pool Industry Mentor Award is proudly supported by:BlueRay XLLaMotte CompanyRevved Up ApparelAqua Comfort Water GroupThese companies continue to support mentorship, education, and professional development throughout the pool and aquatics industry. #TalkingPools #PoolService #PoolChemistry #SwimmingPools #PoolProfessional #PoolIndustry #WaterSafety #CPOTraining #PoolMaintenance #AquaticsProfessionals Support the showThank you so much for listening!

Phosphate additives are commonly used in processed and convenience foods, yet many patients and healthcare professionals remain unaware of how significantly they contribute to phosphorus burden in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Elevated phosphorus levels can negatively impact bone, cardiovascular, and overall kidney health, making phosphorus management an important aspect of kidney care. In this episode of Kidney Commute, an interprofessional panel featuring a nephrologist, dietitian, policy expert, and patient advocate discusses the clinical impact of phosphate additives, the differences between naturally occurring phosphorus and additive-based phosphorus, and the practical challenges patients face when trying to identify hidden phosphorus sources in foods and medications. The discussion also explores socioeconomic barriers, food labeling limitations, and ongoing policy and advocacy efforts aimed at improving phosphorus transparency and patient education. Listeners will gain practical strategies and insights to better support phosphorus management in clinical practice and daily life.

It starts with nothing. By the time you feel it, you may have already lost half your kidney function. The National Kidney Foundation reports 90% of people with chronic kidney disease don't know they have it. In most cases, the damage begins 10 to 15 years before any diagnosis — while labs still look normal. THE 7 HABITS Blood Sugar Spikes. Post-meal glucose spikes damage the hair-thin filtration vessels inside the kidneys over time. A 2024 Nature Communications paper found cellular insulin resistance drives kidney damage before diabetes ever appears. Chronic Dehydration. Your kidneys filter 180 liters of plasma daily. Less water means concentrated waste and a higher workload. Coffee, soda, and energy drinks don't count. Drink clean spring water. Processed Food. Phosphate additives and industrial seed oils (soybean, corn, canola) create ongoing inflammation in the blood vessels kidneys depend on. Swap to butter, ghee, tallow, coconut oil, and high-quality olive oil.  Sugar and Fructose. Fructose overwhelms the liver, converts to uric acid, and lands on the kidneys. A 2024 UK Biobank study of 127,000+ adults found even one sugar-sweetened beverage daily significantly raises kidney disease risk. Diet soda is not a safe swap. Ignoring Blood Pressure. No symptoms doesn't mean no damage. Every heartbeat sends pressure through delicate kidney capillaries. Damaged kidneys then lose their ability to regulate pressure — creating a worsening feedback loop. Chronic Stress and Poor Sleep. Cortisol raises blood sugar, blood pressure, and insulin resistance. Sleeping under four hours raises kidney disease risk by 45%. Kidney repair happens at night. Ignoring Insulin Resistance. The root of everything. By the time labs flag it, you've likely been insulin resistant for 6 to 14 years. About 93% of American adults have some form of it.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Small-Cap Spotlight, John Pasalacqua, CEO of First Phosphate, joins host Tim Gerdeman and WTR analyst Dmitry Silversteyn to unpack Agnico Eagle's $95 million acquisition of Fox River Resources and what the move signals about the accelerating strategic interest in North American phosphate as a critical material for electrification.Pasalacqua outlines why First Phosphate's singular focus on high‑purity igneous anorthosite in Quebec differentiates it from fertilizer‑oriented peers, and details the company's fully validated mine‑to‑battery supply chain, the infrastructure advantages of the Bégin–La‑Marche resource, and a pathway to first production in 2029. With LFP now representing roughly 80% of global battery production and phosphate comprising more than 60% of the cathode by weight, he makes the case that North American supply chain independence begins with domestic phosphate.

Algae that won't quit is usually trying to tell you something, and a lot of the time that “something” is phosphates. We dig into the real role phosphates play in pool water chemistry, why they're measured in parts per billion, and why they don't simply disappear through evaporation or time. If you've ever had a pool that looks balanced but still blooms, or you watch chlorine vanish day after day, this conversation gives you a clean, practical way to diagnose what's happening.We break down the most common ways phosphates enter the water: fertilizer drift, organic debris, phosphate-containing soaps and cleaners, and especially fill water where orthophosphates can be added during municipal water treatment to protect copper pipes. From there, we get specific about when it makes sense to test, what “300 ppb” really means in the field, and which testing options are the easiest to rely on, from simple strips to pool store testing and tools like the Spin Touch.Then we talk treatment without the drama: how to choose a phosphate remover based on strength, how to dose per 10,000 gallons, and why overdosing can trigger cloudiness, heavy filter loading, and rising PSI. We also connect the dots to prevention, including maintenance dosing and the critical 7.5% free chlorine to cyanuric acid ratio so algae doesn't reappear and make customers doubt the whole process. If you want clearer pools, fewer repeat algae calls, and a better way to explain pricing, hit play, share this with a pool pro friend, and leave a review with your biggest phosphate or algae question.We break down what phosphates are, why they act like algae food, and why they linger in pool water instead of disappearing over time. We also walk through how to test, when to treat, how to dose safely, and how to prevent the same algae cycle from coming right back.• what phosphates are and why they feed algae• common phosphate sources such as fill water orthophosphates, fertilizer drift, cleaners and sequestrants• why phosphates build up instead of evaporating or breaking down• when algae points to a phosphate problem and the 300 ppb rule of thumb• practical testing options including strips, pool store tests and Spin Touch• choosing a phosphate remover based on strength and phosphate level• dosing guidance per 10,000 gallons and why overdosing causes cloudiness and high filter PSI• cleaning the filter after treatment and using maintenance doses all season• keeping algae from returning by holding free chlorine to the 7.5% FC to CYA ratio• how to explain the process and price the added chlorine and laborJoin the pool guy coaching program.

Bill Powers interviews First Phosphate CEO John Passalacqua following PDAC, where the company received a non-repayable C$16.7M grant and highlighted government support for critical mineral supply chains. Passalacqua says the funding de-risks the company through feasibility, permitting, and toward a final investment decision, with drilling nearly complete and a feasibility study targeted for December 2026. He explains LFP batteries are largely phosphate-based and that First Phosphate's high-purity igneous phosphate resource in Quebec is rare and advantaged by proximity to infrastructure and a deep-sea port. He discusses phosphate being added to Canada's critical minerals list and related tax credits for downstream facilities, outlines a 10,000 tpa LFP CAM plant concept pending tariff clarity, and reviews U.S. market access via OTCQX and a new 10:1 ADR, along with insider share purchases and recent stock highs. 00:00 Intro 00:54 Canada Grant Impact 02:11 Drilling and Feasibility Timeline 03:02 Why LFP Needs Phosphate 04:05 Infrastructure and Location Edge 05:29 Critical Minerals List Benefits 07:55 Downstream Plant and Tariff Pause 09:03 Europe and US Strategy 10:20 OTCQX Tickers and ADR Explained 14:07 Insider Buying and Alignment 15:05 Valuation and Execution Outlook 16:53 Wrap Up and Disclaimers First Phosphate Introductory Interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eD7t1Q7OZfU Press releases discussed: https://firstphosphate.com/first-phosphate-nrcan-funding-16-7m/ https://firstphosphate.com/canada-critical-minerals-phosphate-clean-tech/ https://firstphosphate.com/first-phosphate-adr-program-fphoy-otcqx/ https://firstphosphate.com/ CSE: PHOS – FSE: KD0 – OTCQX: FRSPF – OTCQX-ADR: FPHOY Sign up for our free newsletter and receive interview transcripts, stock profiles and investment ideas: http://eepurl.com/cHxJ39 Sponsor First Phosphate pays Mining Stock Education a United States dollar ten thousand per month coverage fee.

Pool Pros text questions here This conversation delves into the complexities of phosphates in pool chemistry, emphasizing their role in biological processes and the misconceptions surrounding their impact on chlorine effectiveness and algae growth. It also touches on contractor accountability in the pool industry and analyzes market trends, providing insights into the current state of the industry. Takeaways Phosphates are essential for life and play a crucial role in biochemistry. The pool industry often misunderstands the role of phosphates, treating them as a primary villain in algae growth. Chlorine is the primary agent for controlling algae, not phosphates. Phosphate testing became popular due to marketing rather than scientific necessity. Algae can survive without measurable orthophosphate, relying on other forms of phosphorus. Phosphate removal can help but is not a substitute for proper sanitation practices. The relationship between phosphates and algae is complex and often misrepresented. Market reports can be misleading, showing stabilization rather than true growth.
