Firebird Advances LMFP Battery Materials Program with Completion of Lab-Scale Facility in China

Firebird Metals Limited (ASX: FRB) has achieved a significant milestone by receiving and installing final equipment components at its state-of-the-art lab-scale “ore-to-cathode” production facility in Jinshi, Hunan Province, China. This facility, established under a strategic collaboration with Central South University (CSU), will enable Firebird to produce up to 10 kilograms of lithium manganese iron phosphate (LMFP) cathode active material (CAM) per day. The joint program includes the production of 100 test batches, each to be fabricated into button cells for real-world performance evaluation.

By integrating manganese sulfate production with LMFP CAM processing, Firebird expects to reduce costs significantly, bypassing the expensive crystallization phase. This vertical integration and collaboration with CSU—a global leader in battery innovation—position Firebird to become a competitive, low-cost supplier of manganese-based battery materials in the booming energy storage market.
