Mozal Aluminium starts rebuilding alumina stocks

Natural resources group South32 expects to rebuild alumina stocks at its Mozal Aluminium smelter, in Mozambique, over the coming days if trucking conditions remain favourable. A national election in the country resulted in violent protests and road blockages in recent weeks; however, South32 reports that the road blockages have largely been cleared in recent days, enabling it to safely transport alumina from port to the smelter.
