MATHUR BENEFICIATION OF IRON ORES BENEFICIATION of iron ores relates not only to enrichment of the metal content but also to improvements in phy-_ sical characteristics of the ore charged into the blast-furnace. The latter is achieved by crushing, sizing, and
Most of the high-grade hematite iron ores are typically subjected to simple dry processes of crushing and classification to meet the size specifications required for direct shipping ore (DSO). This involves multistages of crushing and screening to obtain lump (−31.5 + 6.3 mm) and fines (approximately −6.3 mm) products.

The tailings, hydrocyclone overflow, on the other hand, are fed to a tailings thickener. The overflow of the tailings thickener (clarified water) is recirculated back and caters to the process water requirement of the plant. The recovered process water from the tailings thickener overflow of about 90–95% is recycled back to the process plant.

This dry HPGR circuit usually is designed with a combination of static and dynamic air classifiers, and a schematic of its flow sheet is shown in Fig. 4.1. It is also interesting to note that "dry ground feed for flotation shows superior performance in pilot testing to wet milled product " (Aidan Giblett—Newmont TS Processing).
Research regarding iron ore flotation began in 1931, demonstrating that reverse cationic flotation is a very efficient method for beneficiating oxidised iron ores.
Beneficiation is the process where ore is reduced in size and gange separated from the ore. Since all iron ore deposits have unique mineralogy, the beneficiation process is specific to each deposit. Separation of certain minerals can be efficiently achieved by taking advantage of the physical, electrical and magnetic properties.
Rough processing of iron ore employs dry methods which means that equipment is tuned to process large particles, but fine magnetic material less than a few tenths of a millimeter in size is not separated as efficiently. The relevance of this study is determined by the fact that dry beneficiation waste contains recoverable iron-bearing magnetite of commercial value. …

STET has evaluated several iron ore samples at bench scale and significant movement of iron and rejection of silicates has been observed (See Table 2). Experimental conditions were selected so that an iron recovery vs. iron increase curve could be drawn and later be used as input for an operating economic model (See Section 3.0, Figure 4).
Dry processing of iron ore: In dry processing of iron ore, ROM is generally crushed below 40 mm through three-stage crushing and thus segregated by screening into 10–40 and …

Current reduction and smelting process require a slag with basicity (CaO/SiO2 > 1),but the gangue of nearly every type of iron ore is acidic,therefore the silica will be reduced through beneficiation process to about 5-8 % .Harmful component in the ore such as P, As, Cr, Cu, V, alkali, sulphur and Ti. 0.5%must be removed.
Indian iron ores are rich in iron (Fe) content, with 62 to 64 percent Fe, and contain 2.5 to 3 percent alumina. The major iron-bearing minerals are briefly described in Table 1. Due to the high alumina content, the Indian iron ore beneficiation process has not yet found much importance compared with those in the rest of the world.
