Robert Nash, Chairman of Bauxite Resources Limited presented the YEAR IN REVIEW to the company shareholders. In the report he discussed the substantial changes the company went through the Financial Year ending 30 June 2016.

The most significant change the company underwent was the agreement with the Yankuang Group to terminate the Bauxite Alumina Joint Venture (“BAJV”). The termination was achieved through the sale of the Company’s interests in the BAJV and in the Company’s neighbouring Fortuna tenements, to Yankuang for $7.15m together with a royalty on future sales of bauxite. Under the agreement, Yankuang also agreed to sell back its’ 8.5% shareholding in the Company for $1.15m (5.83 cents/share). Following final settlement with Yankuang in January 2016, the Company undertook a complete review of all expenditures with a view to minimising ongoing operational costs. The newly appointed Chief Executive Officer, Sam Middlemas, has assiduously implemented substantial cost reductions in all areas.
