Alcan Gove bauxite mine and alumina refinery
The Alcan Gove bauxite mine and alumina refinery is located at Nhulunbuy on the Gove Peninsula in the east Arnhem Land region of Australia’s Northern Territory.
From this remote location Alcan Gove mines bauxite and refines it into alumina which is supplied globally for the creation of aluminium and other products. With a commitment to innovation and excellence, Alcan Gove is well-positioned to deliver high quality alumina in the competitive world alumina market.
Alcan Gove is 100% owned by Alcan Inc. a global leader in aluminium and packaging and one of the world’s largest alumina producers.
The Alcan Gove alumina refinery has just completed a (US) $2.3 billion expansion (formerly known as the G3 Project) which when fully commissioned will increase alumina production from 2 million to 3.8 million tonnes per annum. The expansion represents a significant investment, delivering long term security and economic benefits to the Gove region, and allowing the refinery to operate independently of its local bauxite reserves.
