Bauxite is a 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
Resource acquisition
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.

*Note: The extraction rate of a Miner Mk.3 at 250 % is 1,200/min, but a Mk.5 Conveyor can only carry 780/min, therefore the maximum mined amount cannot be transported.
