Hang onto it. At this rate a chibi Akagi is gonna turn up in your apartment (possibly if your 6th DesDiv accidentally completes Quest B-10 or something), and that bucket will last you about a day, tops.

So now resources have been assigned to the Apartment too. I wonder what will happen when the regular shipments start arriving.

It's okay, it's okay! It's impossible for 4 destroyers to be deployed anywhere that have air craft carriers. No sane person would send just 4 DDs to World 1-3 and 1-4

He's safe...for now.

So the expeditions have started.

As was said, hang on to that. Most likely thing that might come out are CV's or BB's (I believe he's going to be aghast when Yamato pops out).

But the question persists: how in the world did Inazuma and Ikazuchi get raw bauxite?!

Since you are bringing the Quests, where is Shirayuki? Since she is A-1 and he got 2 kanmusu a while a go.

Sell it?

I'm a sane person, ok.

Yay! more cuteness!

A sudden listing for someone trying to unload a bunch steel ingots, bauxite ore, and fuel oil on E-bay one presumes.

In any event, one would need to start buying a warehouse. Steel would be the easiest thing to sell, you can just directly send it to metal recyclers who buy that stuff no questions asked. Bauxite would need to be sold to an aluminum plant, and they tend to buy that stuff wholesale. You'll need to hang on to a lot of it. Oil would be somewhat similar, where people would ask questions, but if you had some sort of contract set up, you could probably sell into a pipeline fairly easily.

The ammo might raise the notice of the authorities. I LOL at the thought of Inazuma as some sort of international arms dealer...

Anyway, what they need now is a light cruiser, if they're going to make these expeditions really pay off... (Next character Tenryuu or Katori?)

Could always sell it to a machinist/shop I'd buy for my personal projects myself

Generally bauxite and other mined products have a refinery next to the source. A machine shop would have as much use for bauxite as if it were any other non-precious rock. Plus bauxite looks ugly as sin. Really triggers my trypophobia.

some machinist shops have a place to melt scrap down into stock so assuming that its pure enough couldn't you just toss it in with the rest of the copper scraps or is there a process for bauxite?

Aluminium has been called 'solid electricity', it requires stupidly-high energies (and stuff like cryolite) to get the Al out of bauxite (One smelter in New Zealand has its own dedicated hydro plant!). It's not something that you can do in a machine shop. Just melting and reforming already-made aluminium, sure; but not from bauxite.
