Secondary production of a given unit of aluminum requires about 10% of the electricity of primary production. The United States mined production of bauxite for primary aluminum production is insignificant. In 2013, the US mined only 1.3 percent of the bauxite it used, US mined production being less than 0.1 percent of world production.
World bauxite production in 2005 One of the world's largest bauxite mines in Weipa, in northern Queensland, Australia. Australia is the largest producer of bauxite, followed by Guinea and China. [8] Bauxite is usually strip mined because it is almost always found near the surface of the terrain, with little or no overburden.
In 1914 and again in 1915, the US supplied 94 percent of the world's bauxite. Wartime aluminum demand for airplane construction during World War II caused bauxite production to jump more than 16-fold from 1939 to 1943. In 1943, US bauxite production peaked at 6.3 million tons, then fell back to 1.0 million tons in 1945.

I dont understand bauxite, it makes no sense waht so ever to me. thats all folks! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.166.219.8 19:11, 3 March 2008 (UTC) Meriam-Webster provides an audio pronunciation of bauxite here. Sounds like "box-site" to me, although I learned to say "bawk-site" in several different geology courses (in the U.S.).
Bauxite mining in Australia is an economically significant industry both for Australia and globally. [2] The industry focuses on the mining of bauxite, the primary raw material for alumina and aluminium. [3] Australia is the world's largest bauxite producer, producing almost a third of global bauxite. [2]
