中國日報網(wǎng)7月24日電 據(jù)英國路透社7月22日報道，伊朗鋁業(yè)計劃在2016年底動工建設(shè)在幾內(nèi)亞的Dabola-Tougue鋁礬土礦項目，預計基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施投資金額為5.5億美元。
伊朗鋁業(yè)在幾內(nèi)亞注冊的公司Societe des Bauxites de Dabola-Tougue ，SBDT)，該公司2015年與幾內(nèi)亞政府重新簽署了Dabola-Tougue鋁礬土礦的開采權(quán)基礎(chǔ)協(xié)議，獲得了25年的開采權(quán)。
在SBDT公司中，伊朗鋁業(yè)占股51%，幾內(nèi)亞政府占股49%。
Dabola-Tougue鋁礬土礦位于幾內(nèi)亞中部地區(qū)，礦區(qū)總面積為5684平方公里，分成Dabola礦區(qū)和Tougue礦區(qū)。其中，在Dabola礦區(qū)，共勘探出13處礦點；在Tougue礦區(qū)，勘探出12處礦點。
早在1992年，伊朗鋁業(yè)就與幾內(nèi)亞政府簽署協(xié)議，獲得Dabola-Tougue礦區(qū)的采礦權(quán)證。但由于隨后伊朗國內(nèi)的政局變化、西方國家對伊制裁等多種原因，伊朗鋁業(yè)一直未能實質(zhì)性啟動Dabola-Tougue礦的開采。
2015年，伊朗鋁業(yè)與幾內(nèi)亞政府重新簽署了協(xié)議，伊朗鋁業(yè)再次獲得25年的開采權(quán)，其有效期2015-2040年，可延期。
伊朗方面承擔開發(fā)Dabola-Tougue礦的執(zhí)行公司為Iranian Mines &Mining Industries Development &Renovation ，IMIDRO；這是一家伊朗國有控制企業(yè)。
該項目預計前期基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施投資金額為5.5億美元，建設(shè)內(nèi)容主要是修建一條325公里長的公路（用于運輸?shù)V石）、在幾內(nèi)亞首都科納克里自治港建設(shè)一個面積達33公頃的礦石散裝碼頭和堆場。

Guinea's SBDT bauxite project to begin mine construction this year

Fri Jul 22, 2016
CONAKRY, July 22 (Reuters) - Guinea's Societe des Bauxites de Dabola-Tougue (SBDT) expects to begin construction on a mine by the end of this year that would allow it to exploit its large, untapped reserves of bauxite, the company's chief executive said on Friday.
The state of Iran holds a 51 percent stake in SBDT, which owns permits over 5,684 square kilometres. Guinea holds the remaining 49 percent.
"We are currently finalising the feasibility studies. We plan to begin work before the end of this year," Fode Diaby told Reuters.
The concession includes 13 bauxite plateaus at Dabola and 12 at Tougue, both in central Guinea, which have a combined reserve of over 600 million tonnes, according to the company.
The project has remained largely dormant since the original agreement between Guinea and Iran was signed in 1992. However, the two nations renewed the 25-year agreement last year.
Iranian Mines &Mining Industries Development &Renovation (IMIDRO), a major state-owned holding company active in the mining sector, is now lending financial backing to the project, which is expected to cost around 505 million euros ($553.68 million).
"For the evacuation of the ore, we will construct a 325 km (201 miles) transport route. Eventually, a 33-hectare space at the Autonomous Port of Conakry will be developed," Diaby said.
Guinea claims it is home to the world's largest reserves of bauxite, yet it ranks fourth in exports. The government is aiming to boost production by 30 percent before the end of 2016.
