Firebird Metals Ltd. ( (AU:FRB) ) has provided an update.

Firebird Metals has secured a long-term lease on a 775 square metre, purpose-fit light industrial facility in Osborne Park, Perth, to host its Australian Demonstration Plant for manganese concentrate-to-cathode active material processing. The facility was selected after extensive technical, commercial and regulatory due diligence, ensuring access to grid power, suitable layout, industrial zoning and proximity to technical services.

The plant will provide what the company describes as the only fully integrated manganese concentrate-to-cathode active material processing capability outside China, consolidating steps that are usually spread across multiple facilities and countries. This development directly supports the push for sovereign production of advanced LMFP and LMR cathode materials for EV and energy storage markets, underpins Firebird’s move toward commercial-scale deployment, and satisfies a key milestone under its A$2 million ARENA Battery Breakthrough Initiative grant, with detailed fit-out design nearing completion and long-lead equipment procurement underway.
