Livium Awarded ~A$850k Grant by WA Government to Develop a Battery Recycling Facility
Livium Ltd (ASX: LIT) ("Livium" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that its wholly owned subsidiary Envirostream Australia Pty Ltd ("Envirostream") - which is leading Australia's battery recycling industry - has been awarded a -AS850k grant from the Western Australia ("WA") government. This funding will be used to support the development of Envirostream's battery recycling facility in WA, marking a significant milestone in Envirostream's efforts to build a nationwide solution for electronic waste ("e-waste") management.
HIGHLIGHTS
- Livium has been awarded a -A$850k grant from the Western Australian government
- The grant will be used to partially fund the development of a battery recycling facility in WA
- This grant is being awarded under the WA government's electronic waste infrastructure grant funding program
- The development of a WA recycling facility is aligned with the Company's strategic objective of developing nationwide collection, sorting and storage capabilities
The grant will be used to establish a cutting-edge battery sorting and dismantling recycling facility ("WA Facility"). The WA Facility, will focus on the collection, sorting, discharge and storage of batteries. Batteries will then be transported to Envirostream's Campbellfield facility for final processing to Mixed Metal Dust ("MMD") and other metals. The WA Facility is expected to play a pivotal role in transforming Envirostream's collection capabilities and service footprint across the country.
The award of the grant follows a rigorous evaluation process by the WA government, who noted the quality, innovation, and potential impact of the WA Facility. The WA government recognises the value it will bring to the community and acknowledged Envirostream's dedication and commitment to making a positive difference. The grant is subject to entering into a funding agreement with the WA government and customary due diligence checks, which is materially complete.
This grant forms part of the WA government's broader commitment to e-waste recycling and is part of recently announced A$5.4m in additional grants allocated to support e-waste recycling initiatives across the state. To date, the WA government has allocated -A$10m in grants to boost the local e-waste recycling industry. This commitment underpins the importance of sustainable recycling infrastructure in WA and aligns with the Company's objectives to drive environmental progress across Australia.
The development of this recycling facility is a core component of Livium's strategic recycling roadmap. This roadmap envisions a comprehensive national network for battery collection, sorting, and recycling that establishes integrated end-of-life battery processing domestically.
Comment from Livium CEO and Managing Director, Simon Linge
"This grant from the WA government represents a meaningful step forward in our mission to establish a sustainable national battery recycling ecosystem.
WA's grants seek to increase e-waste reuse, storage, collection, processing and recycling capabilities, creating jobs and supporting WA's circular economy. We are grateful for the support and are committed to building a facility that will contribute to a greener future by efficiently managing e-waste and recovering valuable materials. The Company's long-term recycling strategy also involves the development of battery processing capabilities in WA and other states once minimum collection volumes are met.
By fostering local recycling capabilities, we aim to strengthen Australia's position in the global battery recycling industry and contribute to a circular economy."

Exploration Update
Octava Minerals Limited (ASX:OCT) (“Octava” or the “Company”), a Western Australia focused explorer of the new energy metals REE’s, antimony, gold & nickel, is pleased to provide an exploration update on its Western Australian exploration projects.
Highlights
- Mobilisation of crews for detailed geophysical survey over the identified 10km antimony corridor at Yallalong.
- Heritage clearance confirmed over two priority antimony drill targets, Discovery and Central, in preparation for drilling to commence.
- Drilling to focus on extending the existing high-grade antimony mineralisation along strike and at depth over the Discovery target.
- Heritage surveys over next 2 priority antimony targets planned for early December.
- Drill site preparation underway at the large Byro REE & Li project in readiness for metallurgical core drilling to commence mid-November.
Yallalong Antimony
The Yallalong project is located ~ 220km to the northeast of the port town of Geraldton in Western Australia and comprises two granted Exploration Licences, E70/5051 (100% owned) with an exploration area of 63.4km2 and E09/2823 (100% owned) with an exploration area of 94km2.
The antimony (Sb) mineralisation identified at Yallalong appears to occur within a 10km north- south striking mineralised corridor that is interpreted to be related to a structural corridor between the Darling and Woodrarung faults. (Refer ASX announcement 17 September 2024)
Octava will begin detailed gravity and seismic surveys over the identified antimony corridor at Yallalong. Teams will mobilise on ground in the coming days. The geophysical surveys will provide details on the key structures such as shears & faults which act as conduits to mineralising fluids. It will also provide better understanding of the key lithological boundaries.
Figures 1 Outcrop at the Discovery Prospect, Yallalong Project
POW applications covering the 4 priority antimony targets have been approved. These approvals cover the exploration and planned drilling of the antimony targets at the Yallalong Project.
The two priority targets, Discovery and Central, have confirmed heritage clearance, clearing the path for drilling to commence. Heritage surveys covering the No.4 and North targets are expected to be completed by early December in preparation for drilling early in the new year.
The drilling at the Discovery target will focus on extending the previously intersected high-grade antimony mineralisation, both along strike and at depth, with the aim of outlining an antimony resource. Drilling at the Central target will test anomalous antimony at surface, as no drilling has been carried out previously.
Byro
The Byro Project is located on the Byro Plains of the Gascoyne Region, Western Australia, 220 km south-east of Carnarvon and 650 km north of Perth. The Byro project is prospective for rare earths (REE’s), lithium and base metals. (Refer ASX announcement 24 January 2024)
Previous GSWA regional soil sampling and RC drilling has recorded wide areas and large intercepts of anomalous REE, Li & other elements including V and Zn. Previous work identifies an area of mineralisation occurring over more than 30km in strike length and 15km in width. See Figure 2.
