Report summary
Las Mercedes is one of two bauxite deposits in Pedernales region of the Dominican Republic. Alcoa started mining bauxite in the region in the late 50's and finished in the early 80's, leaving port infrastructure and good access roads. The second deposit is the Aceitillar, which is now part of a newly defined national park.
