About Us

Firering Strategic Minerals plc is an AIM-quoted mining company focused on exploring and developing a portfolio of mines producing critical minerals in the Côte d'Ivoire focused on Lithium and Tantalum to support the global transition to net zero emissions.

We have a highly experienced board and technical management team on the ground focussed on the delivery of near-term cashflow by mining our metal rich ore body at Atex.

We operate the Atex Lithium-Tantalum Project in northern Côte d'Ivoire, which is prospective for both lithium and tantalum.  Firering's main focus is working together with Australian diversified minerals company Ricca Resources to advance development at Atex with a view to establishing a maiden lithium resource and then progressing a Lithium project through to DFS.  Firering is also assessing pilot scale production of ethically sourced tantalum and niobium to generate early revenues and support further exploration work.  Should pilot production be successful, a large-scale Tantalum production facility may be developed, which will be supported by a debt facility of FCFA 5,057,000,000 (approximately €7,500,000) currently under negotiation to fund the entire scale-up plan to develop a portfolio of ethically sourced mineral projects in the Côte d'Ivoire, supplying EV batteries, high tech electronics and other fast-growing end markets.

More recently the company has signed an option deed to acquire up to 28.33% of Limeco Resources Limited the owner of a Limestone project / quicklime processing plant located 22km west of Lusaka in Zambia.

Aligned to the Atex Lithium-Tantalum Project in northern Côte d'Ivoire, Firering holds 20,00,000 shares in Ricca Resources Limited which represents circa 11.2% of Ricca's issued share capital.
