The morning sun shines on the dock of the Bofa project in Guinea, and the belt conveyor system that stretches for several kilometers is roaring at a smooth rhythm, like a steel dragon, continuously delivering deep red bauxite to the giant ship. The speed of this' giant dragon 'has just been frozen at 6.2 meters per second - a new number that marks the complete unleashing of the system's potential. In the nearby command center, the project leader stared at the annual cumulative shipment volume of 20 million tons jumping on the screen. This goal, once seen as a challenge to the limits, will finally be rewritten as a reality by this group of builders who are far away from their motherland by the end of 2025.

Open up the fast lane for releasing production capacity

Faced with operational challenges, the Chinalco Guinea Bofa project chooses to prioritize efficiency in technology and management. Through mechanisms such as hanging charts for combat, unveiling rankings and leading questions, the team focuses on key links to carry out tough battles. Among them, the "Belt Acceleration" project has achieved significant results, successfully increasing the belt speed of the conveyor system to 6.2 meters per second and maintaining long-term stability, which is like installing an "accelerator" for ore flow. At the same time, multiple measures such as improving mining efficiency, optimizing transportation processes, and tapping into shipping capacity have been simultaneously promoted, achieving efficient collaboration throughout the entire chain from mines to cargo ships, laying a solid foundation for capacity breakthroughs.

Building an efficient network for mineral circulation

To achieve a historic leap in shipment volume, it is not enough to rely solely on the production process. Chinalco Guinea closely focuses on the strategic positioning of mineral resources as "ballast stones" and organizes a labor competition of "fighting for a hundred days and striving for new heights" internally to stimulate team combat effectiveness; Externally, we closely cooperate with Chinalco Logistics, fully leverage the advantages of our professional logistics platform, and coordinate shipping schedules and production rhythms. By strengthening overall planning and promoting seamless integration and coordinated operation of mining, transportation, and loading processes, an efficient operational network has been formed with internal and external linkage and integrated promotion.

Achieve a new benchmark for overseas development

This hundred day battle ultimately resulted in a dazzling achievement of "annual shipment volume exceeding 20 million tons". This is not only a manifestation of Chinalco Guinea's mission to safeguard mineral resources and its vigorous efforts in extreme management, but also a vivid practice of Chinalco Group's overall strategy on the front line overseas. Through technological breakthroughs and digital empowerment, the project operation capability has been further improved, which not only enhances China Aluminum's own resource guarantee capability, but also provides a successful example for China to build a stable and reliable strategic resource supply chain overseas. In the future, Chinalco Guinea will continue to adhere to high standards of operation and sustainable development, and contribute greater efforts to building a world-class mining enterprise.Editor/Yang Meiling
