Bauxite ore is the world's primary source of aluminum. The ore must first be chemically processed to produce alumina (aluminumoxide). Alumina is then smelted using an electrolysis process to produce pure aluminum metal. Bauxite is typically found in topsoil located in various tropical and subtropical regions.
