Ukukhiqizwa ngesikhathi esifanayo ngonyaka odlule kwaba amathani ayizigidi ezingu-6.086, kanti ukukhiqizwa okubuyekeziwe ngenyanga edlule kwaba amathani ayizigidi ezingu-6.254.

Ngaleyo nyanga, isilinganiso sansuku zonke sokukhiqizwa kwe-aluminium eyisisekelo emhlabeni wonke sasingamathani angama-201,700, asele afana nenyanga edlule.

Kulinganiselwa ukuthiI-aluminium eyinhloko yaseChinaukukhiqizwa ngoJanuwari kwakungamathani ayizigidi ezingu-3.74, okungaphezulu kancane kwamathani abuyekeziwe angu-3.734 million ngoDisemba 2024. Ukukhiqizwa kwezinye izifunda zase-Asia kwaba amathani angu-411,000, ngaphezu kwamathani angu-409,000 enyanga edlule.
