Chromium ore occurs exclusively in ultramafic igneous rocks. Commercial chromite deposits are found in two forms stratiform seams and irregular podiform/lenticular deposits. With the richness of silica and iron, chromite ore deposit can be classified as siliceous type (silica rich) and ferruginous type (iron rich).

Iron ore is an important raw material for steel production. According to statistics, world iron ore production increased from 1.043 Bt in 2001 to 2.93 Bt in 2012 [].Due to the increasing consumption of high-grade iron ore, the iron content in iron ore is decreasing, and these iron ores have to be finely ground and beneficiated to enrich the …
Lower-grade sources of iron ore generally require beneficiation, using techniques like crushing, milling, gravity or heavy media separation, screening, and silica froth flotation to improve the concentration of the ore and remove impurities. The results, high-quality fine ore powders, are known as fines. Magnetite. Magnetite is magnetic, and hence easily …

The prominence is to develop a method for the beneficiation of low grade/slimes/fines iron ore which should be cost effective. It is also very necessary that beneficiated ore should …
All of the iron and steel plants in Oman are employing either direct reduced iron (DRI) or electric arc furnace (EAF) production processes. The advantage of using the DRI process to transform ore into pig iron, is that it can use either natural gas or coal as a feedstock. …
ABSTRACT There is an urgent need for development of environmental friendly processes through which iron ore fines can be beneficiated and utilized effectively. For processing of low-grade iron ores, ground to finer size necessitates the use of centrifugal force. This is because the settling rate of the particles in centrifugal force is …
At grain sizes below 100 µm, impurities such as silica and alumina are separated from the iron ore in a sequence of beneficiation steps, depending on the mineralogy of the iron ore. Removal of impurities from the iron ore is done prior to subsequent processing in pelletizing plants and direct-reduction plants.
In this study, the effect of SiO 2 content on iron ore sintering indexes was studied, with mineral composition and microstructure analyses. It was shown that the …

In this paper, the properties, mineral magnetic modification, and beneficiation of tailings from the central mining and processing plant in Kryvyi Rih, Ukraine, have been studied. Samples were investigated by X-ray diffraction, X-ray fluorescence, microscopy, and magnetization measurements. The beneficiation was conducted using …
Low-grade iron ore received from the West Singhbhum area of Jharkhand state in India was used to develop a beneficiation flow sheet to remove alumina (Al2O3) and silica (SiO2) from the ore to get iron (Fe)-rich product for steel plants. Mineral characterization showed that the main mineral constituents present in the head sample …
The gangue types like silica is separated from the up to 15 % moist ore from the surface mines by means of dry screening (Fig. 7), with no water being added to the process. ... 49.2 % (2) and 66.1 % (3). An important milestone in dry iron ore beneficiation was achieved by Vale with the Conceição Itabiritos project (Fig. 14) in Minas Gerais ...
Froth flotation has been widely used in upgrading iron ores. Iron ore flotation can be performed in two technical routes: direct flotation of iron oxides and reverse flotation of gangue minerals with depression of iron oxides. Nowadays, reverse flotation is the most commonly used route in iron ore flotation. This review is focused on the reverse …
Phosphate ore is an important raw material for manufacturing fertilizers and phosphorous chemical products. While most of the phosphate resources cannot be directly treated as feed stock due to the low grade of P2O5 and high content of impurities. In order to obtain a qualified phosphate concentrate, the beneficiation of the low-grade …
The chemical and physical properties of iron ore tailings are comprehensively examined in this review, and various beneficiation and metallurgical recovery …
