Alumina Prices

Alumina prices averaged USD 367 per metric ton in March, down 0.1% from February. On 29 March, the commodity traded at USD 367 per metric ton, up 0.3% from 29 February.

Prices were mostly unchanged in March relative to February. This highlights that a nationwide strike in late February in Guinea—top producer of alumina’s ore—did not significantly alter alumina production. Meanwhile, global aluminium output fell in February, which likely dented demand for alumina.
