Latrobe Magnesium (ASX: LMG) has officially selected Malaysia’s state of Sarawak to build its 100,000 tonne per annum magnesium plant.
The company’s board has approved the Samalaju Industrial Park in Sarawak as the location for the proposed plant after a review of its available infrastructure.
One of the main advantages of Samalaju is the local production of ferrosilicon, which is one of the proposed plant’s largest reagent requirements.
The area also has proximity to a modern bulk handling port that is capable of importing and exporting 7Mtpa of bulk products with a planned expansion to 18Mtpa.
Samalaju also has access to supporting industries and services through the nearby town of Bintulu, which has a population of 300,000.
The large population provides access to skilled employment at Samalaju and also supports the nearby Petronas liquified natural gas (LNG) complex, which is among the largest in the world.
