AWAC owns two bauxite mines and three smelter (to extract pure aluminium) and has a 55% interest in the Portland aluminium smelter. AWAC also operates and has interests in Brazil, Guinea, Saudi Arabia and Spain.[2]
In 2016, Alumina Limited achieved great short term authority over its interest in AWAC with more influence over a broader suite of operational and investment decisions.[3]
Having been a dual-listed company with shares on both the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) and New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), in February 2014 Alumina delisted from the NYSE, consolidating on the ASX.[4][5]
