Chinalco Says Indonesia Can Defer Export Ban   

Aluminum Corporation of China (Chinalco), a key state-owned enterprise, said that the possibility of delaying the implementation of Indonesia's bauxite export ban still exists.

Chinalco said it does not import a large proportion of bauxite from Indonesia.

Even if the ban is implemented as scheduled, the company will make up for reduced imports by expanding production at domestic and overseas mines.
