Firebird Metals Limited announced completion of the infill drilling program at its flagship Oakover Manganese Project. The program focused on the Karen and Jay-Eye deposits and was delivered on time and under budget. Drilling commenced on 13 October and following a very efficient week on site, 82 holes for 2,828m were completed.

Karen and Jay-Eye host a combined 62.9Mt of Inferred Resources and the primary objective of the program is to grow the current 10-year Life-of-Mine at Oakover, through converting Inferred Resources to an Indicated status. The Company expects to receive assays in the next 8-12 weeks, which will drive an updated Mineral Resource Estimate early in the new year.
