Bauxite is a type of sedimentary rock that has a high content of aluminum. It is considered to be the world's main source of gallium and aluminum. It mainly consists of aluminum minerals gibbsite, boehmite, and diaspora. Australia is considered to be the largest producer of bauxite. Bauxite is mainly strip-mined as it is found near the surface of the terrain. During the processing of bauxite and its conversion to alumina in the Bayer's process, gallium accumulates in the sodium hydroxide liquor.
