On March 11, the low-grade bauxite comprehensive utilization project in Wuchuan Autonomous County was fully completed. The project is located in Canglang Community, Zhuoshui Town, Wuchuan Autonomous County, with a total investment of 110 million yuan. After the project begins operation, it is expected to process 300,000 mt/year of low-grade bauxite and mine waste slag, produce about 160,000 mt/year of aluminum concentrate ore, and generate annual output value of up to 100 million yuan. It was understood that the aluminum concentrate produced by the low-grade bauxite comprehensive utilization project will be supplied directly to SPIC (Zunyi) Industrial Development Co., Ltd., gradually forming a closed-loop industry chain from mining and waste slag comprehensive utilization to deep process.

On January 15, the 120,000 mt/year green aluminum power project in the Angola Aluminum Industrial Park, supported by core technology from Chalco Guiyang Aluminum Magnesium Design & Research Institute (hereinafter referred to as “Guiyang Institute”), was successfully put into operation here. Angolan President João Lourenço attended the project to inaugurate the commissioning ceremony. This marks the first time a Chinese aluminum project has landed on the African continent, and it is another landmark achievement in practicing green industry cooperation under the Belt and Road Initiative.

According to foreign media: As part of an industrial demonstration project funded by the Department of Energy, Century Aluminum has received $500 million to build the most advanced aluminum smelter in the US. The Green Aluminum Smelter Project, led by Century Aluminum Company, will double the country's total aluminum production capacity while reducing emissions of exhaust pollutants by 75% compared to existing aluminum production facilities. This project will be the first of its kind in the country in 45 years and has been hailed as a "major turning point in aluminum production," which is a key factor in the clean energy economy.

After the Start of Spring, in the Luotuoquanzi Industrial Park of Xinxing Development Zone in Xinjiang, red factory buildings stand on the Gobi Desert like desert camels. In the dawn, 360 600KA electrolytic cells were successfully powered up and began operating, with molten aluminum surging like lava. This hot land is rapidly emerging as the largest green aluminum production base in Northwest China, injecting low-carbon vitality into the transformation of energy-intensive industries. The project has a total investment of 5.143 billion yuan and is expected to construct an annual production line of 580,000 mt of aluminum, along with a full set of supporting facilities.

Recently, the No. 3 production line of Chalco Green Materials' Zhaotong, Yunnan 400kt aluminum alloy flat ingot project was put into operation, successfully casting a 5.3-meter-long flat ingot. This marks a significant progress in the deep collaboration between green aluminum smelting and high-end material manufacturing within the Chalco Group.
