Rusal to cut aluminum output by 6%
Rusal said disruption to bauxite supplies from Guinea and Brazil and output suspensions in Australia contributed to a surge in alumina prices.
Four workers died when a building they were demolishing near a coal mine of Russian steel producer Severstal collapsed on Saturday, the company said in a statement.
The people worked for a contractor hired for the job, Severstal said, adding that a violation of safety rules probably caused the accident.
Coal production at the Vorgashorskaya mine in northwestern Russia was unaffected, the company said.
