From clay to a new-age, must-have material

摘要

A CLAY PIT NEAR MECK-ering in Western Australia is the key to Altech Chemicals' high-purity alumina (HPA) project - a project which will have a pre-tax NPV of US$357 million according to its bankable feasibility study. Altech is already in finance discussions to develop a low-cost vertically integrated business, mining its 100%-owned kaolin clay and turning it into high-value HPA at its planned processing plant in Malaysia.
