Bauxite

Bauxite is a mixture of aluminium minerals, clay minerals, and insoluble materials. Three aluminium minerals can occur in bauxite: gibbsite, boehmite and diaspore. Bauxite is the world's principal source of aluminium and can vary from a very soft earth to a very hard rock.

Bauxite: The principal ore of aluminum.

Many people are surprised to learn that bauxite is not a mineral. It is a rock composed mainly of aluminum-bearing minerals. It forms when laterite soils are severely leached of silica and other soluble materials in a wet tropical or subtropical climate.

Bauxite

Bauxite is the primary aluminum ore composed of one or more aluminum hydroxide minerals, including gibbsite (Al(OH) 3), boehmite (γ-AlO(OH)), diaspore (α-AlO(OH)), and impurities such as quartz (SiO 2), hematite (α-Fe 2 O 3), and rutile (TiO 2) [5,12,13].
