Top 5 Largest Producers Of Bauxite In The World

2. China

Bauxite Production in 2022: 90 million metric tons 

China, owing to its heavy mining operations, is exploiting its bauxite resources more than other countries with the biggest bauxite reserves. Although its bauxite reserves (710 million metric tons) are lower than Guinea, its annual mine production is higher, which makes China the 2nd biggest bauxite producer in the world. Extensive research and investments have contributed to China’s substantial bauxite production, but a mining ceiling is needed if the country wants to produce bauxite in the long run.
