In our view, both companies share a similar vision for the JV and growth opportunities of the HPA strategy. Both companies have invested a considerable amount of time and resources to progress the JV discussions to this point, it is a mutual decision to extend the negotiations to consider the value-add opportunities.

We see the extension as positive as it allows both parties further time to assess and implement their intentions in order to achieve a positive outcome. We are simply giving the potential JV discussions all the time and consideration that the strategy deserves."

President, Alcoa Australia, Michael Gollschewski said: "Alcoa remains encouraged by the progress made towards the possible joint development of a HPA project with FYI Resources. We continue to carefully consider this opportunity that has the potential to be a natural complement to Alcoa's existing alumina refining operations."
