The 22 pages that link to Bauxite, each with the reason it gives.

• Open-pit miningRelated: Its shallow deposits are often extracted by surface mining.

• CalcinationRelated: Calcination can prepare bauxite-derived material for alumina refining.

• JamaicaRelated: Jamaica’s extensive bauxite deposits underpin its alumina industry.

• PaleosolRelated: Some ancient bauxites formed as soil profiles and are interpreted as paleosol deposits.

• Guiana ShieldRelated: Weathering of shield landscapes produced important bauxite resources in the region.

• AluminaRelated: Bauxite is the main raw material from which alumina is refined.

• AluminiumRelated: Most aluminium begins as bauxite before chemical refining into alumina.

• LateriteRelated: Bauxite deposits can develop in lateritic weathering environments through aluminum enrichment.

• GuineaRelated: Guinea holds some of the world’s largest bauxite deposits and is a major exporter.

• GoethiteRelated: Goethite commonly occurs with aluminum minerals in lateritic bauxite deposits.

• CorundumRelated: Corundum can form in geological settings involving aluminum-rich bauxite deposits.

• Hall–Héroult processRelated: The process depends on alumina refined from mined bauxite.

• Aluminium smeltingNarrower topic: It is the principal mined source from which smelter alumina is made.

• Bayer processNarrower topic: It is the variable natural feed that the process digests.

• Aluminium oxideNarrower topic: Bauxite is the raw material from which industrial alumina is refined.

• Aluminium hydroxideRelated: Its gibbsite content makes it a major natural source of aluminium hydroxide.

• Bauxite miningBroader topic: Its mineral composition determines which deposits can be mined and processed economically.

• Oxide mineralRelated: Its aluminum-bearing minerals are commonly associated with iron oxides formed during weathering.

• PhosphoriteCompared with: Like phosphorite, it is a mined sedimentary resource, but supplies a different essential industrial element.

• ConakryRelated: Guinea’s bauxite exports make the port central to the country’s mineral trade.

• LimoniteCompared with: It can resemble limonite in earthy appearance but is valued chiefly as an aluminum ore.

• The GuianasRelated: Bauxite mining has been a major industry in Guyana and Suriname.
