Ngokutsho kweengxelo zeendaba, imigodi yase-Australiainkampani Lindian Resources kutshanjeibhengeze ukuba ityikitye iSabelo Purchase Agreement (SPA) esibophelela ngokusemthethweni ukufumana i-25% eseleyo ye-equity kwi-Bauxite Holding kubaninizabelo abambalwa. Eli nyathelo liphawula ukufunyanwa ngokusesikweni kweLindian Resources ye-100% yobunini beprojekthi ye-Lelouma bauxite eGuinea, isusa ngokupheleleyo imingcipheko yokulawulwa kweprojekthi ngenxa yokuqhekeka kobulungisa, kunye neengxabano ezinokuthi zibekho zemali kunye nokwenziwa kwezigqibo kuphuhliso olulandelayo.

Ifumaneka kwintshona yeGuinea, iprojekthi ye-Lelouma bauxite ikwindawo ekuqokelelwa kuyo amanzi emizila emikhulu yezothutho zikaloliwe zelizwe kunye ne-Kamsar Port (elinye lamazibuko aselwandle asezantsi eNtshona Afrika). Ubume bejografi obuphezulu bunika uncedo olubalulekileyo kuthutho lwezothutho kunye nokwenza lula ukuthumela ngaphandle. Njengomthonyama omkhulu we-bauxite e-Afrika, iGuinea ibambe phantse isinye kwisithathu sehlabathi sogcino lwe-bauxite eqinisekisiweyo, kunye nommandla apho iprojekthi ye-Lelouma imi khona yenye yeendawo ezigxininisiweyo zelizwe zokusasazwa kwe-bauxite ekumgangatho ophezulu. Abanini bangaphambili beprojekthi batyale imali engaphaya kwe-10 lezigidi zeedola kuphononongo lokuqala nophuhliso lweziseko ezingundoqo. Uphando lwejoloji olugqityiweyo lubonisa indawo yemigodi ine-bauxite yomgangatho ophezulu, kunye noqikelelo lokuqala lwemithombo ebonisa amandla ophuhliso lorhwebo. Le projekthi ibambe izigidi ezingama-900 zeetoni zemithombo yezimbiwa ethobela i-JORC,kunye nenqanaba le-alumina yeI-45% kunye ne-silica grade ye-2.1%. Iprojekthi yeLelouma yenzelwe ukuvelisa i-Direct Shipping Ore (DSO), ukuphelisa imfuno yokulungiswa.

Abahlalutyi baqaphela ukuba imakethi ye-bauxite yehlabathi ijongene namandla akhulayo emfuno yokubonelela, ngakumbi njengoko i-China, umvelisi omkhulu we-aluminium wehlabathi, iqhubeka nokubona ukunyuka kwemfuno yomgangatho ophezulu wemithombo ye-bauxite yaphesheya. Ukusebenzisa iinzuzo zeprojekthi yeLelouma zendawo kunye nezibonelelo, iLindian Resources ikulungele ukuba ngumdlali ophambili kuxokomelwano lonikezelo lwebauxite lwamazwe ngamazwe. Ngokufunyanwa kwe-equity kugqityiwe, inkampani iceba ukuqalisa ukuphonononga okuneenkcukacha kunye nocwangciso lophuhliso ngaphakathi kwe-2024, ejolise ekuphuhliseni iprojekthi ibe yisiseko sokuvelisa i-bauxite eNtshona Afrika kunye nokubonelela ngezinto eziphathekayo ezizinzileyo kwihlabathi jikelele.ishishini aluminiyam eluhlaza(ezifana neenqwelo zamandla amatsha, i-aerospace, kunye namanye amacandelo).
