Latrobe Magnesium Limited ( (AU:LMG) ) has issued an announcement.
Latrobe Magnesium has achieved a sustained two-week production run at its Hazelwood North demonstration plant, producing about 20 tonnes of high-grade magnesium oxide from brown coal fly ash that met commercial quality specifications confirmed by X-ray diffraction assays. The company recorded its first commercial MgO sale, secured a non-dilutive USD 2 million prepayment from U.S. distribution partner Metal Exchange LLC to help fund Phase 1B, and commenced installation and commissioning of magnesium metal production equipment ahead of a planned transition to first metal output in the second half of 2026, marking a pivotal step toward full commercialisation and revenue growth.
The demonstration plant’s operational stability and validated product quality support Latrobe Magnesium’s pathway to downstream magnesium metal production, strengthening its position in the emerging low‑carbon magnesium supply chain. The initial revenue from MgO sales and the funding arrangement with its U.S. partner reduce financing risk for the next project phase and signal growing commercial confidence in the company’s technology and future market participation.
