Abstract: Abstract Norwegian output of primary aluminium rose from 45,000 metric tons in 1950 to 520,000 tons in 1970 and to 850,000 tons in 1986.1 In 1971, Norway accounted for 18 % of the world’s primary aluminium export. Most of her production was sold on European markets.2 One of the Norwegian companies involved, Norsk Hydro, became in 2002 the world’s third largest producer of aluminium.
