JAMAICA'S bauxite & alumina industry may be making a comeback soon as the Kirkvine mining plant in Manchester could reopen next month.
Minister of Energy and Mining Clive Mullings last Friday disclosed that the Cabinet was scheduled to consider a proposal yesterday that could lead to the Kirkvine plant's reopening.
"We expect and hope that the plant will be reopened in the month of October," Mullings said at a press conference at his ministry.
However, he cautioned that there was volatility in the bauxite sector and in the Eurozone itself that could affect the timetable for the plant's reopening.
