Bauxite, an aluminium ore, is the world's main source of aluminium.

It consists mostly of the minerals gibbsite (Al(OH)3), boehmite (γ-AlO(OH)) and diaspore (α-AlO(OH)), mixed with the two iron oxides goethite and haematite, the clay mineral kaolinite and small amounts of anatase (TiO2) and ilmenite (FeTiO3 or FeO.TiO2).

In 1821 the French geologist Pierre Berthier discovered bauxite near the village of Les Baux in Provence, southern France.

In 1861, French chemist Henri Sainte-Claire Deville named the mineral "bauxite".

Alcoa Inc. (from Aluminum Company of America) is an American industrial corporation, it ranks as the world's third largest producer of aluminum, behind Rio Tinto Alcan and Rusal, with corporate headquarters in New York City.

It is the world's largest Aluminium company by revenue.

From its operational base in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in the United States, Alcoa conducts operations in 31 countries.

Alcoa is a major producer of primary aluminum, fabricated aluminum, and alumina combined, through its active and growing participation in all major aspects of the industry: technology, mining, refining, smelting, fabricating, and recycling.

Aluminum and alumina represent more than three-fourths of Alcoa’s revenue.

Non-aluminum products include precision castings and aerospace and industrial fasteners.

Alcoa’s products are used worldwide in aircraft, automobiles, commercial transportation, packaging, building and construction, oil and gas, defense, and industrial applications.

Aluminium oxide or Aluminum oxide (in U.S. English) is a chemical compound of aluminium and oxygen with the chemical formula 23.

It is the most commonly occurring of several aluminium oxides, and specifically identified as aluminium(III) oxide.

It is commonly called alumina, and may also be called aloxide, aloxite, or alundum depending on particular forms or applications.

It occurs naturally in its crystalline polymorphic phase α-Al2O3 as the mineral corundum, varieties of which form the precious gemstones ruby and sapphire.

Al2O3 is significant in its use to produce aluminium metal, as an abrasive owing to its hardness, and as a refractory material owing to its high melting point.

In ecology, sustainability (from sustain and ability) is the property of biological systems to remain diverse and productive .

Long-lived and healthy wetlands and forests are examples of sustainable biological systems.

In more general terms, sustainability is the endurance of systems and processes.

The organizing principle for sustainability is sustainable development, which includes the four interconnected domains: ecology, economics, politics and culture.

Sustainability science is the study of sustainable development and environmental science.
