Cuba: The Punta Alegre gypsum mine near Ciego de Ávila supplied over 56,400t of gypsum to the local cement industry in 2017. The mine mainly supplied Cementos Cienfuegos, according to the Invasor newspaper. Despite the disruption caused by Hurricane Irma in mid-2017 the mine beat its annual production target of 50,000t. The unit installed a new mill from Chinese suppliers that increased its production capacity to 100t/hr in 2015.
