Bauxite is a rare late-game ore found in the world. It is the raw ore of Aluminum, combining it with Water in a Refinery produces Alumina Solution for further processing.

Obtaining[edit | edit source]
Resource acquisition[edit | edit source]
Bauxite can be harvested by hand (default E) in trace amounts from resource deposits scattered across the world, or from inexhaustible resource nodes on which Miners can be constructed to extract automatically. Additonally, Lizard Doggos will ocassionally bring it when tamed.

| Miner Mk.1 | Miner Mk.2 | Miner Mk.3 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Impure | 30 | 60 | 120 |
| Normal | 60 | 120 | 240 |
| Pure | 120 | 240 | 480 |
| Miner Mk.1 | Miner Mk.2 | Miner Mk.3 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Impure | 75 | 150 | 300 |
| Normal | 150 | 300 | 600 |
| Pure | 300 | 600 | 780 |
Number of Bauxite resource nodes is as follows:
| Node purity | Number of nodes | Mk.3 mining rate | Mk.3 mining rate at 250 % |
|---|---|---|---|
| Impure | 3 | 360 | 900 |
| Normal | 5 | 1200 | 3000 |
| Pure | 5 | 2400 | 6000 |
| Total | 13 | 3960 | 7800* / 9900 |
*Note: The extraction rate of a Miner Mk.3 at 250 % is 1200/min, but a Mk.5 Conveyor can only carry 780/min, therefore the maximum mined amount cannot be transported.

Tips[edit | edit source]
- Use multiples of 105 Bauxite/min for the aluminum processing setup rather than the standard 60/min to get much nicer amounts of machines
- The Alumina Solution tips section contains more relevant tips for aluminum processing
