The processing of these bauxites is done at a number of alumina refineries in the world. Bauxite is usually strip mined because it is almost always found near the surface of the terrain, with little or no overburden. About 85% of bauxite mined worldwide is used to produce alumina for refining into Aluminium metal and 15% of bauxite goes into refractory, chemical, cement, abrasives and other applications.
Chemical Structure & Production
Usually, bauxite ore is heated in a pressure vessel along with a sodium hydroxide solution at a temperature of 150 to 200 °C. At these temperatures, the aluminium is dissolved as an aluminate (the Bayer process). After separation of ferruginous residue (red mud) by filtering, pure gibbsite is precipitated when the liquid is cooled, and then seeded with fine-grained aluminium hydroxide. The gibbsite is usually converted into aluminium oxide, Al2O3, by heating. This mineral becomes molten at a temperature of about 1000 °C, when the mineral cryolite is added as a flux. Next, this molten substance can yield metallic aluminium by passing an electric current through it in the process of electrolysis.
Prior to the Hall–Héroult process, heating ore along with elemental sodium or potassium in a vacuum made elemental aluminium. The method was complicated and consumed materials that were themselves expensive at that time. This made early elemental aluminium more expensive than gold.
