Ore sorting can be done by either manual hand sorting and automated mechanical sorting. The hand sorting technique exploits mineral properties such as weight (density) and colour of an ore where individuals with an experience and knowledge of these characteristics identify and separate valuable ore from gangue by hand (Fenby, 2014).

Iron ore. Iron is the fourth most abundant element in the Earth's crust, but economic concentrations are dominated by comparatively rare iron oxide forms; magnetite (Fe 3 O 4), hematite (Fe 2 O 3), goethite (FeOH), limonite (FeO(OH)nH 2 O) and siderite (FeCO 3).The mineralogy of iron ore impacts its commercial value and how it is processed.

When iron ore is extracted from a mine, it must undergo several processing stages. Six steps to process iron ore. 1. Screening We recommend that you begin by screening the iron ore to separate fine particles below the crusher's CSS before the crushing stage. A static screen is used to divert the fine particles for crushing.
