Alumina Limited. Alumina Limited invests in bauxite mining, alumina refining and selected aluminum smelting operations. The Company's business undertaking is in the global bauxite, alumina and aluminum industry, which it conducts principally through bauxite mining and alumina refining, with some minor alumina-based chemicals businesses, aluminum smelting and the marketing of those products.
