The growth in global alumina production have raised environmental concerns about these deposits since no large-scale reuses exist to date. Microbial-driven techniques includ …

Bauxite. Bauxite is an aluminum-rich sedimentary rock. It is the principal ore of aluminum. Aluminum in bauxite is hosted by aluminum hydroxide minerals, mostly gibbsite 4. The major impurities are iron oxides and hydroxides (which give reddish color to most bauxites) and clay minerals. Bauxite is a weathering product of aluminum-bearing rocks ...

That bauxite is a finite resource that is even starker now than before. In planning for the next 30 years, the administration has to keep that in mind. In the first four decades after its launch in 1974, the bauxite production levy contributed US$4 billion to the Capital Development Fund (CDF), which was supposed to be used to finance projects ...
