Bauxite and alumina ‐ Jamaica's reach for the future

The Hon Hugh Small

Natural Resources Forum, 1990, vol. 14, issue 2, 155-157

Abstract: Jamaica has developed a new strategy designed to allow it to expand its bauxite and alumina production, to diversify both its markets and its sources of investment and, to move downstream into the production of aluminium and semi‐finished products. Some benefits of this new strategy are already evident, several bauxite mines are being expanded, alumina plants are being re‐opened while others are adding additional capacity, and the countries of Europe, Asia and North America are showing renewed interest in investing in Jamaica. With its new strategy, Jamaica intends to participate more fully in the world economy.
