The Ca content in most bauxite ores was below the detection limit except in India bauxite, which contained % Ca. Fig. C shows the XRD patterns of the four bauxite ores. The main crystalline Al phase in all bauxites was gibbsite, and an additional crystalline Fe phase (hematite) was detected in Ghana, India, and Guinea bauxites.
ALAG (ALuminous AGgregate) is a synthetic calcium aluminate aggregate manufactured by the fusion of bauxite and limestone into a partially recrystallized aggregate of approximately 40% alumina. It is essentially Fondu clinker, crushed and sized into grades commonly needed by concrete and castable formulators.

Bauxite is a mixture of minerals which contain, as well as impurities, different concentrations of hydrated aluminium oxides. Gibbsite (alumina trihydrate), boehmite, and diaspore (alumina monohydrates) are the main ore minerals. Bauxite is a highaluminiumcontent rock. That is the main ore that aluminium is mined from.
