PERTH (miningweekly.com) – Emerging bauxite producer Australian Bauxite has secured a further 30 000 t offtake agreement at its Bauxite Hills project, in Tasmania.

The company on Thursday reported that the 30 000 t of cement-grade bauxite would be due for delivery before the end of September this year, with the ore to be shipped at the customer’s expense through the Bell Bay port of Launceston.

“We have a proven record of on-time delivery of large tonnage cargoes of bauxite produced and blended to our customer’s requirements. We also can ship efficiently from Bell Bay port, an all-weather, 24/7 export port that can operate to high standards all year round. This is a core strength of our business,” said Australian Bauxite COO Leon Hawker.
