China's Alumina Trade Surges in April 2026, Imports and Exports See Massive Year-on-Year Growth

In April 2026, China's alumina imports and exports were as follows: imports reached 610,080 tonnes, up 80.33% month-on-month and a massive 5,598.77% year-on-year; exports stood at 516,860 tonnes, up 146.8% month-on-month and 96.62% year-on-year.
