Selective Flocculation of Banded Hematite Quartzite (BHQ) Ores

The recovery of fine hematite particles from banded hematite quartzite (BHQ) ore with potato starch has been investigated using selective flocculation. Microscopic features, coupled with x-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transforms infrared (FTIR) spectroscopic data provide evidences for adsorption of starch molecules on hematite surface. The starch molecules show good selectivity for hemati...

Dissolution of Nickel and Cobalt from Iron-Rich Laterite Ores Using Different Organic Acids

Due to the decreasing production of nickel and cobalt from sulfide sources, the Ni and Co extraction from the oxide ores (laterites) have become more prevalent. In this research work, the effects of calcination prior to leaching, acid concentration, percent solid, pH, and stirring speed on the nickel and cobalt recoveries from an iron-rich laterite ore sample were investigated using diffe...

banded iron - formations , Weld Range , Western Australia

There are two basic Fe-rich lithologies at Weld Range: (l) banded iron-formation containing minnesotaite, siderite, quarlz,magnetite, greenalite, stilpnomelane, pyrite, and chamosite with trace amounts of pyrrhotite, arsenopyrite, chalcopyrite, apatite, and rockbridgeite; Q) Fe-shale. which occurs as laminated 2-30cm-thick bands within banded iron-formation, containing chamosite, stilpnomelane,...

Synthesis of Iron Yttrium Garnet Nanoparticles by Reverse Microemulsion Method

Colloidal nanodispersion of Iron Yttrium Garnet has been preparedbymixing the two ternary mixture of Triton X-100 (surfactant), n-heptane and aqueous solution that differing only in the aqueous phase.Ethanolwas added as cosurfactant and mixed them by ultrasound bath. By mixing these twomicroemulsions, Iron Yttrium garnet (Y3 Fe5 O12) nanodispersionwas obtained. Solids were settled by centrifuge...
