Bauxite deposits are alumina rich laterite deposits that result from the weathering of parent rocks. The deposits are generally relatively shallow (less than 10 metres) and are mined by open cut methods. Apart from the aluminium minerals, from which alumina is extracted, bauxite is predominantly made up of iron and silica minerals. Other minor constituents include titanium, …

At present, bauxites containing more than 5% reactive silica are not economical for processing in the plant due to huge soda loss in the process. To date, various research studies have mainly conducted experiments to reduce the high silica and iron content present in the low-grade bauxite ore at the laboratory level or pilot scale only. Hence, the applicability of the same is required to …
