Bauxite is a rock formed from a reddish clay material called laterite soil and is most commonly found in tropical or subtropical regions • Bauxite is primarily comprised of aluminium oxide compounds (alumina), silica, iron oxides and titanium dioxide Bauxite is processed in an alumina refinery to produce alumina before being taken to an aluminium smelter The main drivers of value within bauxite are the alumina (Al2O3) content and silica (SiO2) content The alumina content is required to be as high as possible to minimise the number of tonnes that need to be transported and processed The silica content is required to be as low as possible as this impacts the amount of alumina that is extractable. and also caustic soda consumption which is the most expensive input in to the process LINDIAN RESOURCES LTD.
