The errors you listed, aside from the unclean dismount, shows there is something existing inside the folder where you want to mount it. I have not seen anything you mentioned to dissuade this point. Check that you don't have anything at the mount point. Fixing an unclean disk is possible. Most of my experience has been through CDrescue which automagically cleaned the disk of this error when mounting it, and it has been too long for me to remember the cleaning process. Perhaps fsck will do the trick.

Here are my observations from my notes:
2019-01-27
[root@Box10 bobg]# dnf install exfat-utils
[root@Box10 bobg]# dnf install fuse-exfat
[root@Box10 bobg]# exfat-fsck
found in release notes"
1.3.0 (2018-09-15)
* exfatfsck can now repair some errors.
Apparently this tries to repair files. It did claim to detect some errors.
as user:
[bobg@Box83 ~]$ exfatfsck /dev/sdc1
exfatfsck 1.3.0
Checking file system on /dev/sdc1.
ERROR: failed to open '/dev/sdc1' in read-write mode: Permission denied.
File system checking stopped. ERRORS FOUND: 1, FIXED: 0.
as root:
[root@Box83 ~]# exfatfsck /dev/sdc1
exfatfsck 1.3.0
Checking file system on /dev/sdc1.
WARN: volume was not unmounted cleanly.
File system version 1.0
Sector size 512 bytes
Cluster size 1 MB
Volume size 3726 GB
Used space 2913 GB
Available space 813 GB
It stopped at this point and I waited a while, nothing seemed to happen,
did CTRL-C. Tried a second time and had the same result. It appears to
have found something it can't fix?
I am assuming "exfat" is a work in process and probably can not deal
with this mount problem.
I will probably just re-format and erase the drive.
