Orbite Aluminae Inc. (TSX:ORT) announced that as of this week, it has begun shipping the first commercial samples of alumina to customers in Europe, Asia and North America. The high-purity alumina is produced at the Company’s HPA plant in Cap-Chat, Quebec.
As quoted in the press release:
Customer HPA samples of 4N purity or greater are expected to continue to ship during the first half of 2013 as material of the appropriate purity and characteristics become available to satisfy customer orders. Sample sizes typically range from 1 to 100 kg. Customers are expected to test their respective HPA samples, a process which can take several months and could entail ordering additional samples, prior to submitting purchase orders for commercial supply.
Orbite, President and CEO, Richard Boudreault, commented:
This is a very important milestone for Orbite as it signals our official entry into the global high-purity alumina market.
