Moscow - The world's largest primary aluminium producer, UC RUSAL, decided to suspend operations at its Alscon smelter in Nigeria because of concerns about gas supplies, it said on Friday.
"Today, despite all measures undertaken by the company, ALSCON does not have a reliable and continuous gas supply," RUSAL said in a statement.
"Aluminium production at the plant is deeply loss-making, which renders it impossible to fully utilize the existing capacities."
