We took the initiative to carry out the construction of a complete set of production and ancillary facilities. We have embarked on planning and construction from scratch, starting from levelling the land for workshop, pipeline and conveyance belt construction, and have achieved a mature scale as at the Latest Practicable Date. We have constructed our own facilities, including Phase I Alumina Production Project and Phase II Alumina Production Project and accompanying coal-gasification plant, thermal power plant, reservoir, and port facilities. As confirmed by our Directors, both the production and the ancillary facilities have been carefully customised and continuously improved to make sure that they are fully effective in all aspects. The operational characteristics of “customised production workshops, low utility costs, efficient year-round continuous production, and ready-to-instal finished products” are highlighted, making our overall efficiency significantly better than that of other companies in the industry. We have been successful in optimising the overall energy consumption of our production and transportation processes with the aid of our state-of-art production line and the seamless operation of our ancillary facilities. Our goal is to achieve a level of management that allows us to “process raw materials upon arrival” and “load alumina for shipment upon it is produced”. The cost advantages brought about by the refined operation and the independent supply of water, electricity and gas enable our annual production volume to climb to our designed capacity and at the same time while effectively controlled the costs of production, inventory storage and transportation.
