Bauxite is an important ore of aluminum, composed mainly of aluminum oxide and hydroxide minerals. It was named after the village Les BauxdeProvence in southern France, where it was first discovered in 1821 by geologist Henri Rouvère.

Pisolites and oolites were elliptical, circular, and as ...
The bauxite overburden material in Brazil includes some topsoil and lateritic crusts, as well as thick clays that cover most bauxite deposits of the Brazilian Amazon region. These thick overburdens are usually considered a drawback during mining, as their removal increases the costeffectiveness of the whole mining process.

Aluminum ore, also known as bauxite, is a naturally occurring mineral rock that contains aluminum in the form of aluminum oxide (Al2O3) mixed with various impurities. Bauxite is the primary source of aluminum, which is one of the most abundant elements in the Earth's crust, comprising about 8% by weight. Bauxite.

Bauxite is the principal ore of aluminum. Bauxites vary physically according to the origin and geologic history of their deposits: some deposits are soft, easily crushed, and structureless; some are hard, dense, and pisolitic,
However, the metallogenic mechanism of bauxite is still obscure due to the unclear formation process of the main ore mineral, diaspore. We conducted geological, ... However, the genesis of many bauxite occurrences remains insufficiently explained and untouched by modern models and techniques. The karst bauxite of the Unterlaussa mining district ...

The upper Permian Heshan Formation in Pingguo, Guangxi, China, is strongly enriched in lithium (Li) and niobium (Nb). The lower bauxite layer contains wt.%Nb2O5 (averaging wt.%), and the overlying clay rock layer contains wt.% Li2O (averaging wt.%), both of which exceed the cutoff grades for independent Li and Nb deposits and are therefore highly prospective ...
Karst bauxite is a major source of aluminum and contains high concentrations of trace elements such as Li, Ga, Sc, and rare earth elements (REEs). It is regarded as a potential nonconventional REE source due to the increasing demand for REEs.
