From the logistics and economic points of view the Juruti region is not suitable for the installation of a smelter unit because of the distance from existing or potential sources of energy. This possibility might only be considered if there were to be future availability of a significant amount of energy and major transmission lines in suitable conditions for making an undertaking of this size in the region feasible.
