According to statistics from the Statistical Institute of Jamaica, the export value of Jamaica’s mining industry grew by 27% year on year to US$206.5 million in the first four months of this year, mainly driven by higher alumina exports.

During the period, Jamaica’s alumina export value reached nearly US$184 million, hiking by 40% from US$131.4 million in the same period a year ago. However, the export value of bauxite slid by 5.6% year on year to US$20.6 million.
