NBS: China's Jan-Oct alumina output rises 8% Y-o-Y despite Oct drop

In October alone, China produced 7.87 million tonnes of alumina, up by 5.8 per cent from the same month of 2024, the NBS data indicated. However, production decreased by 1.7 per cent during the same month compared with September, Mysteel Global calculated based on the NBS data.
Among China's five key alumina-producing regions, three recorded on-month declines in October, Mysteel Global noted. Alumina output in Guizhou, Guangxi, and Shanxi declined by 28.5 per cent, 2.1 per cent, and 1.2 per cent, respectively, according to the NBS statistics. Even in Shandong, the country's largest production base, production remained broadly stable, edging up by a marginal 0.1 per cent.
