Abstract: The huge consumption of iron ores in China has attracted much attention to utilizing low grade complex iron resources, such as high-aluminum hematite-limonite ore, which is a refractory resource and difficult to upgrade by traditional physical concentration processes due to the superfine size and close dissemination of iron minerals with gangue minerals. An innovative technology for a...

In this study, a novel technology for the comprehensive utilization of low-grade iron ore is presented. For with Fe content 24.91%, pilot-scale study pre-concentration, suspension magnetization roasting, grinding, and low-intensity magnetic separation was conducted, an concentrate grade 62.21% recovery 85.72% obtained. The products were analysed using chemical elemental analysis, particle size ...

The reserve of the copper-oxide-bearing limonite ore (COBL ore) in Yulong Copper Co., Ltd. is up to 20 million tons with 1.79% copper content. characters resources COBL are high-proportioned oxidation state (99.98%) and combined (84.83%). oxide mainly limonite, which has a content more than 78%. Because high altitude average annual temperature 15 °C Tibet, fire leaching cannot be adopted. effic...

Gold extraction operations generate a variety of wastes requiring responsible disposal in compliance with current environmental regulations. During recent decades, increased emphasis has been placed on effluent control and treatment, in order to avoid the threat to the environment posed by toxic constituents. In many modern gold mining and ore processing operations, cyanide species are of most ...

Current research emphasis is more on the utilization of materials that are considered as waste. Tailings and fly ash are major category of industrial wastes, whose disposal is problematic from environmental point of view. In this present research, Industrial byproducts, namely, lime (CaO) and class F type fly ash have been used as candidate materials along with the partial addition of ordinary ...

A study of silica and iron recovery from the iron ore concentration tailing is presented. The residue is composed of 40.1% Fe, 33.4% SiO2, 8.31% Al2O3, 0.08% P, and 0.34% MnO. The developed process of silica and iron recovery consisted of size classification, magnetic separation, and removal of impurities by leaching. A concentration of SiO2 from 33.4% to 67.0%, with 60.0% of mass reduction, wa...

Abstract The massive annual tonnage of iron ore tailings, plus the more demanding environmental policies after catastrophic collapses Fundão Dam in 2015 and Feijão I 2019, have forced Brazilian mining companies to search for sustainable safer alternatives tailings disposal. industry has been studying dry stacking filtered tailings. Most seek development great stacks, over 200 m high, absorb who...
