It is easy to extract iron from this kind of haematite by using gravity separation and magnetic separation. Medium-grained hematite refers to iron ore with an embedded particle size between 0.02 and 2mm. This type of hematite is also relatively easy to select, mainly using gravity separation, magnetic separation and magnetic roasting.

The reverse flotation of Itabirite iron ore is typically performed after a desliming step in which most of the sub-10 µm particles are removed. This is done to limit processing problems such as poor flotation recovery of SiO 2 due to slime coatings, increased slurry viscosities, unmanageable froths and increased losses of hematite …
