Minerals | Special Issue : Mineralogy of Iron Ore Sinters

Sinter can constitute more than 60% of ferrous burden in modern blast furnaces in Japan and most blast furnaces in Europe. Iron ore sintering is a high temperature process which converts iron ore fines (<6–8 mm in size, too small for direct feed into the blast furnace) into larger agglomerates containing bonding phases, unmelted nuclei and pores.

Iron Ore

1.1.3.2.1.2 Iron-Bearing Materials. Ore fines and iron concentrates make the main part of the sinter mix. The grain size of ore fines and concentrates is typically 0–8 and 0–3 mm, respectively.Grains smaller than 0.1 mm are not desired because they reduce the gas permeability of the bed and thus decrease the sintering efficiency.Recycled materials, such as …

Siderite

Siderite is both an iron ore and gangue mineral. Its principal economic value lies in its high iron content and the absence of process contaminants such as sulfur or phosphorous. It is part of a large group of isomorphous minerals, the calcite group carbonates, which share similar physical properties, and rhombohedral crystal form.

Why is there a need to crush iron ore bearing rock?

Crushing iron ore-bearing rock is a crucial step in the mining and processing of iron ore for several reasons: Liberation of Minerals: Iron ore is typically embedded within the rock. Crushing the rock helps to liberate the iron ore particles from the surrounding minerals, making it easier to process and extract the iron.
