Doesn't Bauxite contain Aluminum Oxide? That means we should be able to somehow get Aluminum out of it. Unless the historical aspect of the game means that the dwarves do not have thhe technology to do high-temperature electrolysis. Aluminus 16:47, 18 July 2008 (EDT)
- Look at Toady's comment in the raw file about bauxite ;) VengefulDonut 00:31, 20 July 2008 (EDT)
- Specifically, for those two lazy or don't know where the raws are:
[karl@localhost objects]$ cat matgloss_stone_mineral.txt | grep -i baux bauxite melts around 2000C, so it's not practical to smelt it for aluminum (magma only goes up to 1300-1400) [MATGLOSS_STONE:BAUXITE] [NAME:bauxite][COLOR:4:7:0][TILE:'+']

"Only in volcanic areas"?
I've found bauxite surrounding a magma pipe. So what exactly does the assertion on the main page mean? It can't be found in volcanic mountain areas? --DDouble 16:56, 11 August 2008 (EDT)
- That such is quite a rare find, was your magma pipe surrounded by the bauxite directly?--Stalinbulldog 01:21, 13 August 2008 (EDT)
