Preliminary Statement on Australian Bauxite Resources

Created 17/10/2025

Updated 17/10/2025

Bauxite deposits are known to occur in Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria and Western Australia, but it is only in New South Wales that there has been any systematic attempt to assess resources. Even here the final results of the most recent surveys are not yet available. Sufficient is known, however to enable an authoritative statement on possibilities of development to be made.
