Annual production of bauxite in the United States, 1900-2013. Bauxite mining in the United States produced an estimated 128,000 metric tonnes of bauxite in 2013. [1] Although the United States was an important source of bauxite in the early 20th century, it now supplies less than one percent of world bauxite production.
Most of the world's bauxite deposits can be found within 1 to 20 metres (3 ft 3 in to 65 ft 7 in) of the earths surface. [21] [22] Strip mining is the most common technique used for extracting shallow bauxite. [22] This process involves removing the vegetation, top soil, and overburden to expose the bauxite ore. [22]

The US imported nearly all the bauxite (the only commercial aluminum ore) used in producing primary aluminum. For years, the US has produced less than 1% of the bauxite used to make aluminum. The US also imported 33 percent of the aluminum that was used in 2014. Of the imported aluminum, 63% came from Canada. [1] [19]
Aluminium/bauxite pricing. The raw bauxite ore does not have its own price. As a result, bauxite prices are often compared to world aluminium prices when bauxite is being sold. This means that when world aluminium prices are high, bauxite will rise in price and can be sold for more. [1] Chinese economy
Guyana had one alumina plant for separating aluminum oxide from raw bauxite ore, but it closed in 1981 as a result of "inefficient management, declining world prices for bauxite, and prolonged strikes by workers". [1] [22] Prior to closure, production was about 300,000 tons processed per year. [1]
