According to SMM statistics, the total scale of alumina projects currently under construction or in the planning stage in Guinea has exceeded RMB 11.4 million tonne per year, with new capacity expected to be gradually commissioned after 2028.
{alcircleadd}From a project structure perspective, Chinese-invested enterprises remain the key driving force behind development. Many projects are integrated with supporting bauxite mines, captive power plants, and port facilities, highlighting a clear vertically integrated industrial chain strategy.
If these projects progress as planned, Guinea is expected to transform from a traditional bauxite-exporting country into a major global alumina production hub. This could have a profound impact on future global alumina trade flows and China’s long-term raw material supply security.
