1. A process for extracting aluminum from argillite, said process comprising: leaching said argillite with an acid so as to obtain a leachate and a solid residue, and separating said leachate from said solid residue;removing at least a portion of iron ions contained in said leachate by reacting said leachate with a base in order to obtain a pH of at least 10 and substantially selectively precipitating said at least a portion of said iron ions and separating said precipitated at least a portion of said iron ions from said leachate so as to obtain an aluminum enriched composition. 2. The process of claim 1, wherein said acid is HCl. 3. The process of claim 1, wherein said argillite is leached with HCl at a temperature of at least 100 ° C. 4. The process of claim 1, wherein removal of said at least a portion of iron ions is carried out by substantially selectively precipitating said iron ions from a basic aqueous composition comprising NaOH, KOH, or a mixture thereof. 5. The process of claim 4, wherein said precipitated at least a portion of iron ions is separated from said leachate by carrying out a filtration, a decantation, a centrifugation, or combinations thereof. 6. The process of claim 4, wherein said pH is about 10.8 to about 11.2. 7. The process of claim 4, wherein said pH is about 11.5 to about 12.5. 8. The process of claim 5, further comprising purifying said precipitated at least a portion of iron ions by means of a hollow fiber membrane. 9. The process of claim 1, wherein said pH is about 10.8 to about 11.2. 10. The process of claim 1, wherein said pH is about 11.5 to about 12.5. 11. The process of claim 1, wherein said pH is comprised between 10 and 11. 12. The process of claim 1, wherein said pH is comprised between 10.5 and 11.0. 13. The process of claim 4, wherein said pH is comprised between 10 and 11. 14. The process of claim 4, wherein said pH is comprised between 10.5 and 11.0. 15. A process for extracting aluminum ions from argillite, said process comprising : leaching said argillite with HCl so as to obtain a composition comprising a leachate and a solid residue;separating said leachate and said solid residue from one another;at least partially removing iron from said leachate by substantially selectively precipitating iron ions by reacting said leachate with a base and removing a so-formed precipitate, so as to obtain an Al-rich composition; andpurifying said Al-rich composition by reacting said Al-rich composition with a base for substantially selectively precipitating aluminum ions. 16. A process for producing alumina comprising : obtaining precipitated aluminum ions in the form of Al(OH)3 by means of a process as defined in claim 15; andconverting said Al(OH)3 into alumina. 17. The process of claim 15, wherein said leachate is reacted with said base in order to obtain a pH of at least 10. 18. The process of claim 17, wherein said pH is about 10.8 to about 11.2. 19. The process of claim 17, wherein said pH is about 11.5 to about 12.5. 20. The process of claim 17, wherein said pH is comprised between 10 and 11. 21. The process of claim 17, wherein said pH is comprised between 10.5 and 11.0. 22. The process of claim 15, wherein said Al-rich composition is purified by reacting said Al-rich composition with a base for substantially selectively precipitating aluminum ions.
