refinery expansion, Juruti bauxite mine development, Estreito hydroelectric power project, and flat-rolled products
projects in Bohai (China) and Russia; $1,303 in additions to investments, mostly related to the $1,200 investment made
in Shining Prospect Pte. Ltd. to acquire common stock of Rio Tinto plc; and $417 in acquisitions for the purchase of
two aerospace fastener manufacturing businesses ($276), the buyout of outstanding noncontrolling interests in Bohai
($79) and Russia ($15), and a contingent payment made to Camargo Corrêa Group related to the 2003 acquisition of
40.9% of Alcoa Alumínio S.A. ($47); all of which was partially offset by $2,710 in proceeds from the sale of assets
and businesses, mostly due to the $2,651 in net proceeds from the sale of the businesses within the former Packaging
and Consumer segment.
The use of cash in 2007 was primarily due to $3,636 in capital expenditures (includes costs related to environmental
control in new and expanded facilities of $274), 64% of which related to growth projects, including the Iceland smelter,
Mosjøen anode facility in Norway, São Luís refinery expansion, Juruti bauxite mine development, Estreito
hydroelectric power project, and flat-rolled products projects in Bohai and Russia; and $131 in additions to
investments, mostly due to various hydroelectric power projects in Brazil, a natural gas pipeline in Australia, and
available-for-sale securities held by Alcoa’s captive insurance program; all of which was partially offset by $2,011
from sales of investments, mostly related to the $1,942 in proceeds received from the sale of the Chalco investment;
and $183 in proceeds from the sale of assets and businesses, principally due to cash received from the sales of a mine
in Texas ($70) and the Automotive Castings business ($33).
