Description | The Alcoa Australia gallium plant at Wagerup is a critical mineral recovery facility co-located at the Wagerup Alumina Refinery in Western Australia. It extracts gallium from the refinery's aluminate liquor stream, targeting annual production of approximately 100 tonnes, which is about 10% of the current estimated global gallium demand. The plant processes up to 10% of the Wagerup liquor stream using solvent extraction and electrowinning to produce metallic gallium. The facility occupies around 4 hectares within the existing refinery boundary, leveraging existing infrastructure to reduce permitting timelines and capital expenditure. |
