Os warrants de liga de alumínio fundido da SHFE aumentam para 20.208 mt em 24 de agosto, liderados por ganhos em Guangdong e Jiangsu.

RevoCast has launched its aluminum remelting facility in Langley, British Columbia, with the first billet successfully cast on August 1. The 120,000-ft² facility is designed to produce around 80,000 tonnes of recycled aluminum billets per year, primarily supplying 6xxx-series billets to extrusion markets across the US West Coast and Pacific Northwest. The plant uses high-efficiency burners, electromagnetic stirring and energy recovery technologies to reduce energy consumption during remelting.

Australia's Tomago Aluminium smelter will receive USD 2.5 billion in government funding to secure its long-term operations. Under the agreement, Tomago will invest at least USD 1.1 billion in the facility, including USD 100 million for decarbonisation and grid demand-response initiatives. The smelter will enter a 10-year PPA after its current electricity contract expires at the end of 2028, with nearly 3 GW of new energy supply planned and electricity to come from 100% renewable sources from 2033.

Alunorte is ramping alumina production back to full capacity after reaching a temporary terminal access agreement with gas supplier CELBA and receiving approval to become a self-importer of gas. The refinery had temporarily reduced production following disruptions to natural gas availability. Lost alumina output is estimated at 100,000-120,000 tonnes, while reduced production and higher gas purchasing costs could result in a USD 75-100 million financial impact on the Bauxite & Alumina business in Q3 2026.
