    sanctions against Russian aluminum producer RUSAL United, coupled with Norsk Hydro's Alunorte alumina refinery in Brazil, have pushed up international alumina prices, making China a rare export of alumina.

    China is the world's
    largest producer of aluminum.

    2.
    Due to employee strikes, the production of bauxite at the Guinea Bokai Mining Company (SMB) has completely stopped in the past ten days, and has affected about 1 million tons to 1.

    1 million.

    3.
    Lu Dongliang, president of Chinalco, said that the company plans to export 30,000-50,000 tons of alumina
    in May.
    He said the impact of the 10 percent U.

    During the day, the Shanghai aluminum 1807 oscillation closed up to 14885 yuan / ton, initially returning to the operation above the moving average group, but due to the further expansion of China's primary aluminum production in April, it may limit the rise in aluminum prices
