As per my information, China is the largest producer of alumina (aluminium oxide) but Australia is the largest producer of aluminium.
Producing aluminium from alumina is done through electrolysis process requiring huge amount of energy. Thus aluminium refining plants are located near cheap energy source.
Australia having huge reserve of high quality coal produces cheap energy. It has also the largest deposit of bauxite. Thus logically it leads in aluminium production.
