It was also reported that Alcoa and Alcan, two of the leading bauxite companies operating in Jamaica at the time, examined the newly invented process and had found it to be chemically sound, and preliminary evaluation suggested that a million tons per year per plant for treating 'red mud' would be economically viable.
The bauxite/alumina industry has made a quantum leap in safety over the last 25 years, with recorded injuries taking a nosedive from 8,000 in 1974 to fewer than 500 since 1982. ... the workers and generally all the stakeholders in the industry," says Executive Director of the Jamaica Bauxite Institute (JBI), Parris Lyew-Ayee, in an interview ...

Most of Jamaica's bauxite is red or reddish-brown, a peculiarity which indicates the occurrence of iron mineral in the ore. There is no overburden covering the bauxite, as is the case in many …
The Jamaican bauxite was very fine-grained and did not behave like other bauxites elsewhere in the world. All three companies, Alcan, Reynolds and Kaiser, had to develop appropriate technology to economically refine Jamaican ore into alumina and were quite successful in processing the low monohydrate hematite ore. ...
According to Chairman of the Jamaica Bauxite Institute (JBI), Dr. Carlton Davis, mining of the precious resource is the single largest non-service activity in the country. ... "We have restored a little over 4,000 hectares.the important thing is to try to accelerate the process of restoration, so that the lands can be put to use," Dr. Davis ...

Bauxite is the ore that is the world's primary source of aluminum. It is a significant natural resource for the Caribbean island of Jamaica. Large portions of Jamaica's future bauxite resources are goethitic and have significantly higher phosphorus concentrations than currently-processed hematite-rich ores.
Bauxite mining, as with any other mining of any sort, can cause dusting and other forms of nuisance, but what the environmentalists have traditionally failed to do is to acknowledge that the ...
Minister of Science, Technology, Energy and Mining, Hon. Phillip Paulwell, foresees an inevitable cessation in the export of bauxite, noting that there are more long- term benefits in having it processed here in Jamaica.
Abstract. Jamaican bauxite deposits can broadly be classified into two types, catchment and hillside, depending on their form and topographic setting. The major iron phase in catchment …
bauxite residue (red mud) disposal, remediation, ground water impacts, land issues, ecological indicators. 1. Background. Jamaica is the third largest island in the Caribbean, bauxite is a key natural resource and it has been mined and processed for over 60 years. The bauxite industry in Jamaica spans several
In addition to the problems involved in the bauxite mining, another set of problems exist around the four plants in Jamaica that process the bauxite into alumina. The Bayer process uses large amounts of caustic soda some of which escapes into the air which, along with the dust from the extensive, one mile long red-mud lakes, compromises both ...
Eight years ago, the Government's Jamaica Bauxite Institute (JBI) and Japan's Nippon Light Metals entered a 50:50 partnership for the extraction of rare earth minerals from bauxite residue. Millions of tonnes of the stuff are around the island in red mud lakes or dried and stacked in the vicinity of the island's alumina refineries.

Bauxite residue, or red mud (RM), is an alkaline sludge waste produced via the alumina extraction process in bauxite mines. Depending on the source of bauxite, this residue can be considered as a ...
Bauxite with less than 3% silica was prescribed as that which could be economically processed to alumina in the existing Jamaican and American plants. Alcoa, …
We report the development of a process allowing the selective, sustainable recovery of scandium (Sc) with 75% efficiency from Jamaican bauxite residue (red mud), a waste product from aluminum production. The process design is inspired by green chemistry principles and focuses on establishing highly selective process steps (sulfation, leaching, and …
