US Invests $150M in Guyana Bauxite | Guyana News
Description
The U.S. is pouring $150 million into Guyana’s bauxite mining to secure a domestic supply of refractory-grade bauxite—critical for missile engines, military aircraft, and space tech. With $85.5M from the Department of War and $64.5M from private investors, the push aims to build a full Western Hemisphere supply chain, cutting reliance on Chinese imports. Strategic Bauxite USA’s recent acquisition of First Bauxite ensures long-term control. Once operational, this project will meet 100% of U.S. military demand for brown-fused alumina and refractory bauxite, while also supporting steel and aluminum industries—showing the Pentagon is proactively strengthening supply chains before vulnerabilities are exploited.
