Description
As at 30 June 2025
Aluminium smelter near Maputo, Mozambique. FY26 production guidance of 240kt reflects fewer pots in operation as pot relining stops and operations continue only to March 2026, when the current electricity agreement expires; without access to sufficient and affordable electricity South32 expects Mozal to be placed on care and maintenance in March 2026. Guidance assumes no load-shedding impact; costs influenced by raw-material inputs and the rand.
