俄罗斯铝生产商俄罗斯铝业周四表示，已与国有的加纳综合铝业开发公司达成协议，共同开发加纳的铝土矿和氧化铝项目。
Russian aluminium producer Rusal said on Thursday it had reached an agreement with the state-owned Ghana Integrated Aluminum Development Corporation to jointly develop bauxite and alumina projects in Ghana.
这项开发西非最丰富矿床之一的协议，是在总统弗拉基米尔·普京与非洲领导人于莫斯科举行峰会期间宣布的。俄铝在一份声明中表示，这些项目将通过两家合资企业实施，俄铝将在其中持有多数股权。
The deal to tap one of West Africa's richest deposits was announced during a summit between President Vladimir Putin and African leaders in Moscow. In a statement, Rusal said the projects would be implemented through two joint ventures in which it would hold majority stakes.
俄铝是中国以外全球最大的铝生产商，并未成为西方因乌克兰战争而实施的制裁对象。但该公司在2022年失去约40%来自乌克兰和澳大利亚的氧化铝供应后，一直在寻求减少对第三方氧化铝供应商的依赖。氧化铝是铝生产的关键原材料。
Rusal, the world's largest aluminium producer outside China, has not been targeted by Western sanctions related to the war in Ukraine. But the company has been seeking to reduce its reliance on third-party suppliers of alumina, a key raw material for aluminium production, after losing around 40% of its supplies from Ukraine and Australia in 2022.
这家俄罗斯公司表示，俄铝与加纳综合铝业开发公司已同意在加纳开发铝土矿开采业务，年产量最高可达500万吨，并建设一座年产能120万吨的氧化铝精炼厂。
Rusal and GIADEC have agreed to develop bauxite mining operations in Ghana with annual output of up to 5 million tons and to build an alumina refinery with an annual capacity of 1.2 million tons, the Russian company said.
该公司称，加纳西南部宁亚欣矿床指定开发区域的估计资源量超过1亿吨铝土矿。
It said estimated resources in the area earmarked for development at the Nyinahin deposit in southwest Ghana are more than 100 million tons of bauxite.
俄铝在非洲已有广泛业务，包括在邻国几内亚的铝土矿和氧化铝生产资产。2025年，该公司生产了685.8万吨氧化铝，占全球产量的4.7%，满足其氧化铝需求的85%。
Rusal already has extensive operations in Africa, including bauxite mines and alumina production assets in neighbouring Guinea. It produced 6.858 million tons of alumina in 2025, accounting for 4.7% of global output and 85% of its alumina needs.
加纳去年取消了与当地公司罗克苏尔国际公司价值12亿美元的租赁协议，以寻求外国合作伙伴来开发宁亚欣矿床。
Ghana last year cancelled a $1.2 billion lease agreement with local firm Rocksure International in order to seek a foreign partner with which to tap the Nyinahin deposit.
在俄铝发布的一份声明中，加纳综合铝业开发公司首席执行官雷因多夫·特乌马西·安克拉表示，新协议符合该公司在加纳建立完全一体化铝工业、实现铝土矿国内加工的目标。
GIADEC CEO Reindorf Twumasi Ankrah was quoted in a statement published by Rusal as saying the new deal was in line with his company's goal of establishing a fully integrated aluminium industry in Ghana that would allow for domestic processing of bauxite.
他说，这些项目将带来投资、数千个就业岗位，并改善铁路和港口基础设施。
The projects would bring investment, thousands of jobs and improvements to rail and port infrastructure, he said.
