2019-2-27 Bauxite is a mineral that contains varying amounts of combined water and several impurities of which ferric oxide and silica are usually predominant. It is found in a belt around the equator and is generally extracted by open-cast mining. Before mining can commence the land needs to be cleared of timber and vegetation.

Bauxite is a weathered rock containing two forms of hydrated aluminum oxide, either mostly a monohydrate AlO(OH) in caustic bauxite, or mostly a trihydrate Al(OH) 3 in lateric bauxite.

The silica present in the bauxite tends to be concen-trated in the finer grained fractions, and this charac-teristic makes bauxite amenable to beneficiation by screening techniques. Pearson' has reported that in a bauxite of average composition of 1.58% silica, the minus 100 mesh fraction analysed a silica content as high as 10.30%.
