Recovery of iron from iron-rich diasporic bauxite ore via reductive roasting followed by magnetic separation has been explored recently. However, the efficiency of alumina extraction in the non-magnetic materials is absent. In this paper, a further study on the digestion of alumina by the Bayer process from non-magnetic material obtained after magnetic separation of reduced iron-rich diasporic ...

Current blast furnace technology is a two-stage ironmaking process that requires that iron ore concentrate first be formed into pellets, fired at 1260°C, cooled, transported to the blast furnace, and then re-heated to approximately 1500°C to produce pig iron. This heating, cooling, and then reheating wastes a great deal of energy, which would be saved if the ironmaking process had only a single...

This study investigated the optimum conditions for the leaching of manganese-rich iron ore for subsequent beneficiation studies in laboratory scale. The experiments were carried out by varying the concentration of H2 SO4 solution and the leaching temperature. The properties of the iron ore was characterized by X-ray fluorescence (XRF), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM)...

The Southeast Missouri Iron Metallogenic Province in the Midcontinent USA contains seven major and several minor IOA/IOCG-type deposits a series of shallow vein-type deposits/prospects, all which are spatially temporally associated with early Mesoproterozoic (1500–1440 Ma) magmatism St. Francois Mountains terrane. One is Shepherd Mountain deposit, consists two northeast-trending ore veins domin...

Brownfield areas are important targets of exploration; however, the extensive drilling present in these has not fully exploited their prospective potential. The appropriate use drill hole cores can play an role deep exploration. We a case study iron oxide-copper-gold (IOCG) Furnas Southeast deposit, located Carajás Mineral Province, Brazil. This deposit disseminated chalcopyrite, bornite and go...

the late eocene-early oligocene sarnowsar granitic rocks and many dacitic to rhyolitic dykesintruded in metamorphosed and metasomatized shale, sandstone, calcite and dolomite marbles andvolcaniclastic and pyroclastic rocks. as a result several million tons of iron ores formed within carbonaterocks in the sangan area. the sarnowsar granitic rocks are mainly granite to granodiorite, metaluminous,...

Abstract: The huge consumption of iron ores in China has attracted much attention to utilizing low grade complex iron resources, such as high-aluminum hematite-limonite ore, which is a refractory resource and difficult to upgrade by traditional physical concentration processes due to the superfine size and close dissemination of iron minerals with gangue minerals. An innovative technology for a...

introduction two main principal aspects for the genesis of porphyry copper deposits have been determined. the first genetic model concerns the petrologic and geochemical processes and the other relates the genesis to crustal deformation and geodynamic conditions (kesler, 1997). recent studies (e.g., padilla garza et al., 2001) show that the generation and emplacement of porphyry copper deposits...

We evaluated the significance of iron and manganese content in sphalerite as a tool for distinguishing between low-sulfidation intermediate-sulfidation epithermal deposits on basis new previously published electron probe microanalyses data Roșia Montană ore deposit available microchemical from Neogene located Apuseni Mountains Baia Mare region, Romania. Two compositional trends Fe vs. Mn were d...
