dam-l item concerning mozambique

I am passing this along on the list as there has been a tie 
established between construction of aluminum processing 
plants and hydroelectric plants to power them as they 
are very energy intensive and this item may be of interest 
to some on the list.

cheers!

 Aluminium production in Mozambique

                  An international consortium has begun producing aluminium
                  at its new foundry in Mozambique, six months earlier than
                  scheduled.

                  The British mining group Billiton said today that the
foundry is
                  expected to reach its full capacity of a quarter of a million
                  tons of aluminium in the first quarter of next year.

                  Billiton's partners at the foundry, at Mozal, are the
                  Mozambique government, Industrial Development Cooperation
                  of South Africa, and the Japanese group Mitsubishi.
