Oct 21, 2024

Firebird Metals Limited (ASX: FRB) announces the successful completion of trials on the pilot-scale calcining kiln, marking a significant milestone for its innovative technology. The results from the trials are auspicious, underscoring the calcining kiln’s potential further to enhance the Company’s already impressive low-cost profile. This pilot-scale calcining kiln, located at Jinshi High-Tech Industrial Park in Jinshi, Hunan Province, China, has proven to be a game-changer.

Following rigorous internal trials and independent reports from Sunward, FRB’s self-developed electrical rotary kiln has showcased remarkable energy savings, marking a paradigm shift in energy efficiency: This translates to a cost reduction of USD30 per tonne of product or 5% of total production costs. These potential cost savings are a testament to the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of its innovative technology. FRB is actively pursuing international patents for this groundbreaking kiln technology, setting the stage for its commercialization in China and beyond. Furthermore, the technical team is already designing an electrical kiln tailored for higher-temperature operations, such as lithium spodumene processing, expanding the potential applications of this groundbreaking technology.
