low grade magnetite beneficiation

Due to the depleting reserves of DSO ores and increasing development of low-grade hematite and magnetite deposits, the need for iron ore beneficiation is increasing. Even the DSO ores are requiring a higher level of processing as the depth of existing mines is increasing (below water table) where ores are wet and more sticky, which creates ...

The iron ore industries of India are expected to bring new technologies to cater to the need of the tremendous increase in demand for quality ores for steel making. With the high-grade ores depleting very fast, the focus is on the beneficiation of low-grade resources. However, most of these ores do not respond well to the conventional …

Invariably, low-grade magnetite ores processing warrants further beneficiation, after crushing and screening, to a higher iron grade concentrate with acceptable impurity levels (Xiong et al., 2015). Currently, industrial magnetite beneficiation is carried out as a wet process (Karmazin et al., 2002).
