Alumina-rich iron ore is a widely existed polymetallic deposit in the nature, and it has a high comprehensive utilization value. Because the alumina and iron contents of alumina-rich iron ore vary from each other, there are many different measures and processes to recover iron and alumina from the various kinds of alumina-rich iron ore. In the blast furnace (BF) ironmaking process, the alumina ...

In Palaeozoic rocks of South-eastern Bosnia (SEB) there are numerous, but very small vein and replacement barite ore deposits containing up to 10% Pb-Zn-Fe-Cu sulphides. Their geochemical characteristics are compared with large barite monosulphide (Hg-tetrahedrite) ore deposits in Mid-Bosnian Schist Mountains (MBSM). The 87Sr/86Sr isotope ratios in the barites of both areas are very similar, (0...

THE student of geology in the course of his training usually passes through three stages of achievement: A first in which he learns to identify the materials with which he works; a second in which he learns to recognize the distribution of these materials in space; and a third in which, from this distribution, he interprets the geologic history of the area of the assemblage of materials. Paraph...

Development experience of ore traffic and extraction simulation system in underground part of potash mines is reviewed. Distinctive features of suggested simulation model (combine complex extraction, using conveyor transport and transfer point in continuous ore traffic simulation) are represented. Implementation features of bundled software ”Рудопоток” are considered.

A pre-treatment method for upgrading gold from a polymetallic gold-zinc-lead ore by flotation was studied. X-ray diffraction analysis of the sulfide showed that quartz, calcite, pyrite, sphalerite, and galena are main constituents ore. The composition contained 6.49 ppm Au, 3.48% Zn, 1.25% Pb, 17.98% Fe, 20.36% S. Due to complexity ore, recovery is generally low. objective this study develop pr...

The objective of this research is to determine all processes in the magmatic evolution and related hydrothermal activities that created the volcanic rocks and associated ore-forming systems of the Bafq ‎mining district. Several iron oxide-apatite (IOA) deposits were investigated in this area with a focus on the Sechahun ore deposit. The Bafq ‎mining district is well known for hosting significan...

This study describes a method used to improve ore grade estimation in a limestone deposit in India. Ore grade estimation for the limestone deposit was complicated by the complex lithological structure of the deposit. The erratic nature of the deposit and the unavailability of adequate samples for each of the lithogical units made standard geostatistical methods of capturing the spatial variatio...

We describe four men who had symptoms of acute mercury poisoning following exposure to mercury vapor. They were attempting home gold ore purification using a gold-mercury amalgam and sulfuric acid. Three of the four patients required treatment with penicillamine. The clinical and laboratory data are presented along with pulmonary function test results. Long-term follow-up of one patient indicat...
