During the last ten years great strides have been made, on the Mesabi range, in the practice of beneficiating low grade iron ore material. By beneficiation is meant all methods of removing impurities, and raising the iron content to a point where it can be sold in open market, the principal impurities being silica and moisture.

Classification will be challenged by the emerging requirements for gravity concentration, comminution, and coarse/fine particle flotation circuits to ensure beneficiation can straddle two decades in size ranges from 1.0 to 0.1 mm down to 0.1 to 0.01 mm, via classification at an intermediate size, nominally 0.1 mm.

However, on one hand a good quality iron ore reserve is depleting while on the other hand steel companies require better quality of iron ore with lower gangue content due to the addition of higher capacity blast furnaces for higher productivity, lower hot metal cost, and lower CO 2 footprint for sustenance. Currently, a general practice adopted ...

Gravity Concentration — the separation of minerals by virtue of specific gravity — is one of the oldest forms of mineral processing. Whilst its relative importance has declined in the twentieth century, the high cost of alternative processes, along with the development of a range of high capacity devices has led to something of a renaissance of gravity concentration.

Due to different physical and physicochemical of iron ore and gangue. It is possible to concentrate the iron ores. The iron minerals have a higher specific gravity than the gangue mineral, so in many cases gravity or centrifugal concentration is possible (fig1). The size -media of separation is for coarse particles (> 3mm) in drum or tank.

That such an ancient and inherently simple process has not only survived, but thrived, is in part due to its very simplicity. Not only is gravity concentration the process of choice in small, remote, artisanal plants, it also continues to play a major role in larger, "modern" plants for the concentration of many minerals, literally from A (andelusite) to Z (zircon).

MAGNETIC CONCENTRATION In India, magnetic concentration is very effective method for the beneficiation of iron ore, nearly 90% of ores are concentrated by this method (Ryan 1991) (Table 1). Approximately 20-35% of all the unit of iron lost their value by magnetic separation, because hematite ore of iron is weakly magnetic response.
