Metro Mining Ltd CEO Simon Wensley talked with Proactive about the company’s expansion efforts and market outlook. Over the past two years, Metro Mining has invested $36 million to increase production capacity from 3.5–4 million tonnes to 7 million tonnes. The expansion includes key infrastructure upgrades, such as maintenance on the barge loader and the addition of a wobbler screening circuit to enhance wet weather operations. Wensley highlighted the importance of bauxite, the raw material for aluminum, in sectors like energy transition, electric vehicles, and construction. He noted that Metro Mining is positioning itself as one of the lowest-cost producers in the Asia-Pacific region, allowing the company to maintain strong margins even in market downturns. With record bauxite trade levels in recent years and growing aluminum production in China, India, and the Middle East, Metro Mining is targeting 6.5–7 million tonnes in shipments for 2025. Wensley also discussed the company's goal of improving financial resilience, reducing debt, and potentially returning value to shareholders by year-end.
