On the afternoon of September 18, 2015, Mr. Friday Gao, met with Mr. Ruban Rajalingam, Secretary of Malaysia Mining Club. Mr. Ruban revealed that the proven reserves of bauxite in Malaysia are about 25-30 million tons which will be able to meet the market demand in 2-3 years. In addition, many mining areas have not been explored, as a result, it is expected the reserves will be consumed for 5-8 years. He also confirmed that Malaysia has 13 mining licenses at the moment and thought enjoying a large cost advantage, the Malasian bauxite market will not be influenced by the markets in the Republic of Guinea and Indonesia.
