there are a lot of environmental problems one is hurting the land, by taking the earth away from its usual spot, another with water, the water gets taken out of the mining spot, another is air, the oxygen is taken out of the place where you are mining and then there is the other waste materials such as pollution. i hope this answers your question. :-)
Due to the low value of bauxite, mining is usually strip mined
Coal is a fossil fuel, it is used to generate electricity or steam to power machines. Aluminium mining is the extraction of the ore of Aluminium, "bauxite". To mine bauxite you would need to use oil (another fossil fuel) powered machines and dynamite. So the answer is NO, coal powered energy is not an alternative for Aluminium mining.
In the crust, Aluminum. However, the only economically viable form for mining is Aluminium-Bauxite which is not prolific, hence the higher cost of Aluminium.
what are the disadvantages of bauxite mining
Bauxite is an ore, hence, it relates to mining.

Bauxite is a major ore of aluminum, usually occurring as a clay. Major producers of bauxite are Australia, Jamaica and Brazil. It is abundant in Jamaica, Brazil, Surinam, French Guiana, France, Hungary, and in the states of Alabama, Georgia, and Arkansas in the U.S.
Mining
Bauxite is the ore that is refined into aluminum. Yes, it is mined.
It first started in 1861. I had to do an assignment on bauxite :P
There is little evidence of significant adverse effects on respiratory health associated with bauxite mining.There is little evidence of significant adverse effects on respiratory health associated with bauxite mining.
Suriname's main industry is bauxite mining. Suriname is one of the top 10 producers of bauxite in the world. The Aluminum Company of America subsidiary, SURALCO, has been mining bauxite in Suriname since 1916.
