Bauxite is the principal ore of aluminum, predominantly composed of aluminum hydroxide compounds mixed with iron oxide, silica, and titania. The ore forms in varying geological conditions, resulting in different types such as monohydrate and trihydrate bauxite, each with distinct properties and uses. Trihydrate bauxite, primarily consisting of gibbsite, includes three molecules of water. This type is more prevalent and is favored for aluminum production due to its lower processing temperature, making it more energy-efficient in the Bayer process for aluminum extraction.
