Global Bauxite Market to Grow at a CAGR of 6.10% During 2024-2032, Driven by the Growing Adoption of Smart Automation and Data-Driven Solutions by Key Players

North America holds a significant share of the market. The main application of bauxite, a metallic ore, is in the large-scale manufacturing of aluminium, which is an important raw material for the development of sustainable and energy-efficient transportation solutions such as electric and hybrid vehicles. Hence, the escalating EV sales in North America and the surging manufacturing of EV batteries propel the bauxite market demand.

According to the US Geological Survey (USGS), in 2022, the US produced 95 million metric tonnes of cement, compared to 93 million metric tonnes in 2021. The rising construction activities and government investment in infrastructure development also support the market demand. The region's huge number of end users, major car factories, strong construction sector, and infrastructure improvements are driving the demand for alumina, which is expected to further drive the demand for bauxite over the course of the forecast period.

Moreover, the growing responsible and sustainable mining activities of bauxite drive the market growth. In December 2023, Alcoa Corporation (NYSE: AA) received mining permission from the Western Australian Government to continue bauxite mining activities and downstream alumina refining within the state.

The company is also committed to improving its operations to align with changing demands and standards. For its bauxite mines in Huntly and Willowdale, Alcoa announced that the government approved its most recent five-year mine plan, known as the 2023–2027 Mining and Management Programme (MMP).

The company also aims to collaborate with the WA government to update the state agreements and the framework for obtaining permissions for its three alumina refineries and two bauxite mines located within the state, which included switching to the modern EPA assessment and approval process for all newly proposed major mining regions.
