The process for mining bauxite is not complex. Unlike ores from base metals, the grade of most bauxite found through mining is acceptable. Bauxites of Brazil, South-East Asia, as well as some types found in Australia and China, need up-grading from the crude ore. This is achieved by washing and screening, and then the super-fine fractions ...

Bauxite (Fig. 1.33) is formed by surface weathering of clay rocks around the tropical region and composer of aluminum oxide (Al (OH) 3 ). It contains 15%–25% aluminum and only ore used for commercial extraction for aluminum. The bauxite occurs as near-surface layers and usually mixed with clay minerals, iron oxide, and titanium dioxide.

The United States imports bauxite from Canada, Russia, and numerous other countries. Aluminum is produced from the imported bauxite at several aluminum smelters in the United States (including in South Carolina, New York, Kentucky, Arkansas, and Indiana). A substantial amount of aluminum is also recycled at such smelters.
