Bauxite is a premium industrial mineral ore primarily composed of gibbsite, boehmite, and diaspore. As a vital non-renewable resource, it serves as the cornerstone for the global aluminum industry, providing the essential raw material for alumina production. Our high-grade bauxite is available in various purity levels, appearing in colors ranging from pure white to light gray, green, or red depending on the natural mineral composition.
Beyond aluminum smelting, our calcined bauxite is processed in high-temperature rotary kilns (850°C to 1600°C) to remove moisture and significantly boost alumina content from approximately 57% up to 88%. This high-performance material is indispensable for the production of fused corundum, grinding agents, high-alumina slurry, and advanced refractory materials used in heavy industrial environments.

Raw bauxite is the natural ore, while calcined bauxite is heated in a rotary kiln at 850°C to 1600°C to remove moisture and increase the alumina (Al2O3) content from about 57% to as high as 88%.
Due to its low thermal expansion and high temperature volume stability, bauxite is used to create refractory bricks and linings for steel, petroleum, and chemical furnaces.
Yes, bauxite powder is frequently added to cement, mortar, and concrete to increase the overall hardness, strength, and corrosion resistance of the structure.
We primarily arrange deliveries through Xingang Port and Qingdao Port to ensure efficient international shipping.
Standard options include 1-ton Jumbo Bags, or small bags of 10kg and 25kg placed inside a jumbo bag for easier handling.
Yes, processed bauxite is used to create casting molds specifically for the machinery, instrumentation, and communication equipment industries.
