BEIJING (Asian Metal) 12 Apr 24 - As a calcined bauxite producer in Yangquan, Yangquan Dexu Refractory Materials Co., Ltd., resumed their calcined bauxite production about a week ago, expecting to produce about 1,500t this month.
"Due to the safety inspection and environmental protectional inspection of the local government, we suspended production since early February and resumed production about a week ago", a source in the company reveals, adding that they anticipate to produce nearly 1,500t in April.
Having a yearly production capacity of 100,000t, they had an output of nearly 20,000t in the previous year, and estimate to produce about 18,000t in 2024. They hold about 300t in stock at present.
