Bauxite is the red dirt found in countries like Jamaica, Guyana, Suriname within the Caribbean but also in other countries such as Australia and Brazil. The bauxite industry has its history in post- slavery when England ran the bauxite export, into the years when bauxite was among the industries being nationalized by Caribbean governments. .

In Guyana Rusal owns 90% of the Berbice-based Aroaima Bauxite Company of Guyana Inc, producing and shipping 1.5m tonnes of calcined bauxite in 2017 to the Rusal owned Nikolaev refinery in the Ukraine. In Jamaica in 2017, Rusal's operations produced 1.95m tonnes of bauxite and at its Ewarton refinery produced 0.6m tonnes of alumina.
During the 1950s bauxite export was focused on 1) higher grade calcined bauxite (for which Guyana had an effective monopoly); and 2) processing of primary bauxite …
Sintered bauxite is produced when the rock is crushed to a powdered form and then fused into round beads at a very high temperature. "In essence what this means is that Guyana's bauxite fills a particular niche in the alumina range, between 87-88 percent typical bauxites, which makes it a more expensive grade on the market," Rice said.
In February, a 1.7-million-ton-per-year bauxite mine in Guyana shut down, citing civil unrest that interfered with mining operations and damaged mine property. The mine was a major supplier of refractory-grade bauxite. Bauxite and alumina production increased in Brazil compared with that in 2019 after the restart of capacity that was shut down for
The nationalization of the bauxite-alumina industry in Guyana in 1972, and the renegotiation of mining agreements in Jamaica during the Manley government of the 1970s, involving increased government equity participation and the institution of a bauxite production levy, are two relatively recent examples of abruptly changing policy frameworks ...
This is a list of countries by bauxite production in 2020. It exhibits certain changes from the geographical rankings of 2018. Country. Production in. thousand tonnes. World. 327,000. Australia.
Also, Guyana's exports: BAUXITE PROCESSING IN JAMAICA AND GUYANA 285 GDP ratio is larger than that of Jamaica, providing a relatively larger base with which to calculate the percentage impacts. Finally, Guyana's import coefficients are generally larger than those of Jamaica, further depressing the net foreign exchange impact.

Author links open overlay panel James P ... input-output analysis to estimate national income and foreign exchange impacts of hypothesized aluminum smelting in Jamaica and Guyana. Aluminum smelting is found to be consistent with very large increases in wages, operating ...
bauxite-aluminium production, and Alcan, the major Canadian investor in the Caribbean (almost $300 million of investments in 1970), operated subsidiary companies in Guyana, Jamaica and Trinidad. By 1970, North American control of Guyana's bauxite resources had long been complete, with Alcan accounting for more than 80 per cent.
ALTHOUGH I have written about the Jamaican bauxite and aluminium industry in three books and numerous articles, I think it is appropriate to repeat some of what I have written to mark the 60th anniversary of the beginning of the commercial mining of the ore. On June 5, 1952, the first shipment was made by Reynolds Jamaica Mines from its port in ...
