  • Alcoa and Teck Resources Gain from Rising Gallium Prices Amid China Supply Limits
    April 25, 2026, 7:29 PM EDT. China's control of 99% of primary low-purity gallium production and export restrictions have driven prices up 141% in 2025, impacting the semiconductor industry. The Middle East conflict has further disrupted aluminum, affecting gallium supply. Alcoa (AA) benefits from diversified bauxite sources across Australia, Brazil, Guinea, and Saudi Arabia, plus government-backed projects boosting gallium production in Australia. Alcoa's strong Q1 earnings and strategic debt reduction highlight improved financial health. Shares trade attractively at about 9 times forward earnings, with an aluminum smelter restart expected to add $55 million in Q2 earnings. These factors position Alcoa as a key play amid the mining supply shortage.
