national industry 331313

Alumina Refining and Primary Aluminum Production

Overview

This U.S. industry comprises establishments primarily engaged in one or more of the following: (1) refining alumina (i.e., aluminum oxide) generally from bauxite; (2) making aluminum from alumina; and/or (3) making aluminum from alumina and rolling, drawing, extruding, or casting the aluminum they make into primary forms. Establishments in this industry may make primary aluminum or aluminum-based alloys from alumina.

The immediate parent of national industry 331313 is international industry 33131: Alumina and Aluminum Production and Processing
