Bauxite Resources up-beat about refinery plans

Write: Barend [2011-05-20]
Dec. 24, 2010 - Bauxite Resources says steadily increasing bauxite and alumina prices will help it progress plans for a refinery in south-west Western Australia in 2011.
The miner hopes to find enough bauxite in its exploration leases, from Jarrahdale to south of Manjimup, to establish the alumina refinery.
Chairman Barry Carbon says the company will finalise the location for the facility and submit an application for regulatory approval of its design and construction plans next year.
He says he expects the project will significantly progress over the next 12 months.
