Minerals | Free Full-Text | Can Weathering of Banded Iron
Oxidation of iron-rich rock is known to generate H2 in oceanic as well as in continental domains. Here we tested the possibility of H2 generation as the result of weathering of banded iron formations (BIF). The BIF constitute more than 60% of global iron ore reserves with low Fe3+/Fetot and total Fe ranging from 20 to 40 wt% and are …

Iron Ore Processing, General | SpringerLink
The iron ore processing industry produces usable concentrations of iron-bearing material by removing nonferrous rock (gangue) from low-grade ore. In the United States, predominant iron ore is taconite which is a hard, banded, low-grade ore. Ninety-nine percent of the crude iron ore produced in the United States is taconite.

The impact of goethitic ore types across the value chain – Process
Goethites with low porosity have high to medium hardness. Porous goethites are soft and friable leading to ultrafines generation. Powdery or dusty ores have goethite with an appreciable portion of goethite crystallites less than 0.01mm diameter. Goethitic ores can enhance sinter productivity.
