Latrobe Magnesium Sarawak

Latrobe Magnesium Sarawak Company Profile

Latrobe Magnesium Sarawak pertains to the strategic exploration and potential development activities of Latrobe Magnesium Ltd (LMG), an Australian-based technology company, within Sarawak, Malaysia. LMG is a pioneering company focused on developing an innovative, world-first hydrometallurgical process to produce high-purity magnesium metal. This process is designed to extract magnesium from industrial waste streams like fly ash, offering a more environmentally sustainable and cost-effective method compared to traditional magnesium production techniques.

The company has expressed significant interest in establishing a large-scale magnesium production facility in Sarawak. This initiative involves evaluating the feasibility of setting up a manufacturing plant, potentially in collaboration with local entities such as PETRONAS. The goal in Sarawak is to leverage the region's resources, including potential access to raw materials like serpentinite, and its strategic location to establish a robust production hub for magnesium, contributing to the global supply chain. This effort is currently in the planning and development assessment stages.

Is it a factory or a trader?

Latrobe Magnesium Sarawak is positioned to be a future manufacturing entity. Its primary intent and business model in Sarawak is to establish and operate a magnesium production factory. It is not currently operating as a trader of magnesium metal.

Latrobe Magnesium Sarawak is not an independent production entity currently manufacturing or selling products in Malaysia.

Latrobe Magnesium Limited (LMG), an Australian company, is developing a project with its primary intended product being:

Magnesium metal

LMG is in the development phase of its demonstration plant in Victoria, Australia, to produce high-purity magnesium metal. The connection with Sarawak, Malaysia, relates to potential future raw material sourcing or project expansion, not current manufacturing or sales of the final product from Sarawak itself.
