01 The Opportunity

Canada needs sovereign industrial depth — now.

In an era of allied supply-chain stress, rising NATO commitments, and renewed emphasis on domestic capacity, Canada's dependence on a single foreign-owned supplier for critical munitions is a strategic vulnerability the country can no longer afford.

BLACKPOINT is building a Canadian-controlled defence and critical minerals platform at the Port of Belledune, New Brunswick — anchored by a signed strategic partnership with MKE, the state defence manufacturer of Türkiye and NATO ally exporting to 105+ countries.

Canada should never again depend on someone else’s permission to defend itself. We are building that certainty at Belledune — with Canadian control, allied technology, and a region ready to work.

BLACKPOINT Leadership Team
02 Six Strategic Anchors

A platform built on contracted, verifiable foundations

01

MKE Partnership Signed

Strategic Partnership Pre-Agreement executed 17 June 2026. Technology transfer, IP rights, and production line supply — validated NATO-ally source.

02

Non-Dilutive Support

Multiple federal and provincial programs — CDIR, RDII, NRCan Critical Minerals, ITC Clean Tech, ONB — documented alignment.

03

Critical Minerals Access

World-class indium, tin and tungsten deposits within New Brunswick — targeted for corridor integration.

04

First Canadian APT Refinery

Canada currently has zero integrated tungsten refining. Phase 4 creates the only non-Chinese APT supply chain in North America.

05

Belledune Site Secured

Long-term land lease signed. Deep-water port, rail and road access, industrial power capacity, cleared industrial zoning.

06

Sovereign Alternative

A Canadian-controlled complement to the existing foreign-owned munitions supplier — genuine Buy Canadian alternative.

03 The Corridor

Six phases, one integrated value chain


From a NATO-standard ammunition factory to a first-of-its-kind APT refinery, each phase of the Belledune corridor strengthens the others through vertical integration.

Proven Technology

The proven line — now coming to Belledune

MKE builds and commissions turnkey NATO-standard ammunition lines across allied nations. The footage below shows the exact technology-transfer model BLACKPOINT brings to the Port of Belledune.

04 Vertical Integration

Value that compounds — from Canadian ore to allied markets

Today, Canadian minerals leave the country raw and return as finished goods at many times the price. Belledune keeps every link — extraction, refining, manufacturing, export — inside one province and one chain of command.

01
334 Mt
In-province reserves

Extract

Indium, tin and tungsten mined in New Brunswick — critical inputs held inside an allied jurisdiction.

02
10×
Value added on site

Refine

North America’s first integrated APT chain turns concentrate into defence-grade tungsten, ending reliance on Chinese processing.

03
115M+
NATO rounds / year

Manufacture

NATO-standard small-calibre lines built on proven MKE technology, qualified and tested under Canadian ownership.

04
2028
First allied shipments

Export

A year-round, ice-free deep-water port carries every output on direct shipping lanes to NATO and allied markets.

One province. One chain of command. Value that stays in Canada.
