Abstract. This chapter introduces the principle of how low-grade iron ores are upgraded to high-quality iron ore concentrates by magnetic separation. Magnetite is the most magnetic of all the naturally occurring minerals on earth, so low-intensity magnetic separators are used to upgrade magnetite ores. On the other hand, because oxidized …

Novel Technology for Comprehensive Utilization of Low-Grade Iron Ore …
In this study, a novel technology for the comprehensive utilization of low-grade iron ore is presented. For the iron ore with a Fe content of 24.91%, a pilot-scale study of pre-concentration, suspension magnetization roasting, grinding, and low-intensity magnetic separation was conducted, and an iron concentrate with a grade of 62.21% …

The Relationship Between Mining and Sintering
The only source of primary iron is iron ore, but before all that iron ore can be turned into steel, it must go through the sintering process. Sinter is created by mixing iron ore concentrate with several additives such as limestone and silica to control the chemistry and then igniting it at 1200°C in a continuous belt-fed furnace.

Iron ore | BHP
Iron ores are rocks and minerals from which metallic iron can be extracted. There are four main types of iron ore deposit: massive hematite, which is the most commonly mined, magnetite, titanomagnetite, and pisolitic ironstone. These ores vary in colour from dark grey, through to deep purple, rusty red and bright yellow.
