At the ceremony, new owners of the bauxite operations formally announced the extension of the partnership with Jamaica to what they call “a historic first-time twinning relationship.” As per the agreement, the new company secures a 17.3 per cent share in the profits of the alumina refinery at Gramercy for Jamaica, replacing the levy payments agreement attached to local bauxite production.
