Alpha HPA, a producer of high purity aluminum products, has purchased a 9.2-hectare land in Gladstone, Queensland, and planned to invest US$300 million to build a high-purity alumina industrial plant with an annual output of 10,000 tons of high-purity alumina.

The project will be constructed in two stages. The first stage was expected to be put into operation in August 2022. The second phase, for the full-scale project, was expected to start the commercial operation by 2024.

High-purity alumina is mainly used in LED lights, lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles, solar battery storage, consumer electronics, and so on. The demand is rising worldwide, especially in China and Europe.
