Australian ownership in Gove cut to thirty percent
The Australian Government will reduce Australian ownership in the Gove bauxite alumina project from 50 to 30 percent. Prime Minister Gorton announced in principle approval to double the alumina plant output from 0.5 to 1.0 million tons annually, with capital rising from about 100 to 300 million. The 1965 agreement with Nabalco allowed Australian stakes to drop if 74 percent return on equity could not be shown for 20 years, leading to permission to withdraw from the original equity plan.
