As hematite and magnetite are the main concomitant constituents in iron ores, the separation index after the magnetization roasting will be more optimized than with only hematite. In this research, the mechanism of the original magnetite improving iron ore reduction during the magnetization roasting process was explored using ore fines and lump ore samples. Under optimum roasting conditions, the iron grade increased from 62.17% to 65.22%, and iron recovery increased from 84.02% to 92.02% after separation, when Fe in the original magnetite content increased from 0.31% to 8.09%, although the Fe masses in each sample were equal. For lump ores with magnetite and hematite intergrowth, the method of in situ and continuous image capture Citation: Zhao, B.; Gao, P.; Tang, Z.; for microcrack generation and the evolution of the magnetization roasting process was innovatively Zhang, W.

  • Recovery of Magnetite-Hematite Concentrate from Iron Ore Tailings
    E3S Web of Conferences 247, 01042 (2021) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/202124701042 ICEPP-2021 Recovery of magnetite-hematite concentrate from iron ore tailings Mikhail Khokhulya1,*, Alexander Fomin1, and Svetlana Alekseeva1 1Mining Institute of Kola Science Center of Russian Academy of Sciences, Apatity, 184209, Russia Abstract. The research is aimed at study of the probable recovery of iron from the tailings of the Olcon mining company located in the north-western Arctic zone of Russia. Material composition of a sample from a tailings dump was analysed. The authors have developed a separation production technology to recover magnetite-hematite concentrate from the tailings. A processing flowsheet includes magnetic separation, milling and gravity concentration methods. The separation technology provides for production of iron ore concentrate with total iron content of 65.9% and recovers 91.0% of magnetite and 80.5% of hematite from the tailings containing 20.4% of total iron. The proposed technology will increase production of the concentrate at a dressing plant and reduce environmental impact. 1 Introduction The mineral processing plant of the Olcon JSC, located at the Murmansk region, produces magnetite- At present, there is an important problem worldwide in hematite concentrate. The processing technology the disposal of waste generated during the mineral includes several magnetic separation stages to produce production and processing. Tailings dumps occupy huge magnetite concentrate and two jigging stages to produce areas and pollute the environment. However, waste hematite concentrate from a non-magnetic fraction of material contains some valuable components that can be magnetic separation [13]. used in various industries. In the initial period of plant operation (since 1955) In Russia, mining-induced waste occupies more than iron ore tailings were stored in the Southern Bay of 300 thousand hectares of lands.

  • Banded Iron Formations
    Banded Iron Formations Cover Slide 1 What are Banded Iron Formations (BIFs)? • Large sedimentary structures Kalmina gorge banded iron (Gypsy Denise 2013, Creative Commons) BIFs were deposited in shallow marine troughs or basins. Deposits are tens of km long, several km wide and 150 – 600 m thick. Photo is of Kalmina gorge in the Pilbara (Karijini National Park, Hamersley Ranges) 2 What are Banded Iron Formations (BIFs)? • Large sedimentary structures • Bands of iron rich and iron poor rock Iron rich bands: hematite (Fe2O3), magnetite (Fe3O4), siderite (FeCO3) or pyrite (FeS2). Iron poor bands: chert (fine‐grained quartz) and low iron oxide levels Rock sample from a BIF (Woudloper 2009, Creative Commons 1.0) Iron rich bands are composed of hematitie (Fe2O3), magnetite (Fe3O4), siderite (FeCO3) or pyrite (FeS2). The iron poor bands contain chert (fine‐grained quartz) with lesser amounts of iron oxide. 3 What are Banded Iron Formations (BIFs)? • Large sedimentary structures • Bands of iron rich and iron poor rock • Archaean and Proterozoic in age BIF formation through time (KG Budge 2020, public domain) BIFs were deposited for 2 billion years during the Archaean and Proterozoic. There was another short time of deposition during a Snowball Earth event. 4 Why are BIFs important? • Iron ore exports are Australia’s top earner, worth $61 billion in 2017‐2018 • Iron ore comes from enriched BIF deposits Rio Tinto iron ore shiploader in the Pilbara (C Hargrave, CSIRO Science Image) Australia is consistently the leading iron ore exporter in the world. We have large deposits where the iron‐poor chert bands have been leached away, leaving 40%‐60% iron.

  • Smelting Iron from Laterite: Technical Possibility Or Ethnographic Aberration?
    Smelting Iron from Laterite: Technical Possibility or Ethnographic Aberration? T. O. PRYCE AND S. NATAPINTU introduction Laterites deposits (orlateriticsoilsastheyarealsocalled)arefrequently reported in Southeast Asia, and are ethnographically attested to have been used for the smelting of iron in the region (Abendanon 1917 in Bronson 1992:73; Bronson and Charoenwongsa 1986), as well as in Africa (Gordon and Killick 1993; Miller and Van Der Merwe 1994). The present authors do not dispute this evidence; we merely wish to counsel cautioninitsextrapolation.Modifyingour understanding of a population’s potential to locally produce their own iron has immediate ramifications for how we reconstruct ancient metal distribution net- works, and the social exchanges that have facilitated them since iron’s generally agreed appearance in Southeast Asian archaeological contexts during the mid-first millennium b.c. (e.g., Bellwood 2007:268; Higham 1989:190). We present this paper as a wholly constructive critique of what appears to be a prevailingperspectiveonpre-modernSoutheastAsianironmetallurgy.Wehave tried to avoid technical language and jargon wherever possible, as our aim is to motivate scholars working within the regiontogivefurtherconsiderationtoiron as a metal, as a technology, and as a socially significant medium (e.g., Appadurai 1998; Binsbergen 2005; Gosden and Marshall 1999). When writing a critique it is of course necessary to cite researchers with whom one disagrees, and we have done this with full acknowledgment that in modern archaeology no one person can encompass the entire knowledge spectrum of the discipline.1 The archaeome- tallurgy of iron is probably on the periphery of most of our colleagues’ interests, but sometimes, within the technical, lies the pivotal, and in sharing some of our insights we hope to illuminate issues of benefit to all researchers in Metal Age Southeast Asia.

COVID-19 is a severe problem for many countries and to control and prevent the spread of this problem implemented the lockdown approach in many countries, including India. In this lockdown situation, almost all people are staying at home for 24 hours. Due to the present status of COVID-19, the Indian government also xed the 67 days lockdown and one day was already successfully done as Janta Curfew, which worked the same as a lockdown. The value of indoor gamma dose rates was reported higher in most places as compared to the outdoor gamma dose rate, but in this pandemic situation, occupancy factor values are not applicable as recommended by UNSCEAR for calculation of Annual Effective Dose Equivalent (AEDE).

Its geographical area is 443.4 thousand sq km which is nearly 13.5% of the geographical area of the country. It is centrally located and occupied the heart of the country. The state is bordered by seven states viz. Utter Pradesh, Bihar, Orissa, Andhra Pradesh, Maharastra, Gujarat and Rajasthan. (Map 1) Madhya Pradesh is situated in the centre between lattitude 170-48'N to 280-52' N and between longitudes 740-0' E to 840-24' E. Undulating topography characterized by low hills, narrow valleys, well defined plateau and plains is the general physiography of the tract which separates the fertile Gangetic plains of Utter Pradesh in the north from the broad table land of Deccan in the south. The elevation varies from over 61 m to 1438m above mean see level. The major protion of the Catchments of many important rivers like the Narmada, the Mahanadi, the Tapti, Wainganga, the Son, the Chan hal and the Manvi lie in Madhya Pradesh. The forests occupy an area of 155.414 sq km which comes to about 35% of the total land area of the state and about 22% at the total forest area of the country, these forests are not evenly distributed in the state.
