Magnetic separation is widely used. All materials with magnetism in the magnetic field can be treated by magnetic separation, which is the main method to treat iron ore. All lean magnetite ores need to remove gangue minerals such as quartz through weakly magnetic field magnetic separators to improve the iron grade of concentrate. …
The removal of "tramp" iron from feed belts can also be regarded as a form of low-intensity magnetic separation. However, tramp iron removal is usually accomplished by means of a magnetic pulley at the end of an ore conveyor (Figure 13.12) or by a guard magnet suspended over the conveyor belt (see Chapter 2).Tramp iron removal is important prior …
Siderite ore, considered as the most abundant in sedimentary iron formation on earth is one of the typical refractory iron ores [5].

The investigations carried out on the low grade iron ore sample reveal the following conclusions. (1) The sample on average contains 43.8% Fe, 16.8% SiO 2 and 5.61% Al 2 O 3. (2) The mineralogical studies indicate that the major iron minerals are magnetite, hematite and goethite.
Magnetic separation of iron ore happens by passing crushed iron ore over electromagnets. Highly magnetic iron ore is attracted to the magnets while the non-magnetic materials and gangue minerals drop away as tailings. ... This process produces high-content iron ore concentrates but is limited to low magnetic iron ores and, …
A total iron grade of about 66.6% with iron recovery of approximately 90.4% could be obtained by reduction roasting goethite-rich iron ores using 10% coal at 800 • C for 30 min, followed by low ...
The efficiency of magnetizing roasting and magnetic separation for goethite ores seems to be slightly lower, reaching the grade and recovery of 58–62 and 60.88 wt ... Scheme of a device for the separation of highly magnetic dispersed iron ores in an alternating magnetic field, where 1 is a permanent magnet; 2—an electromagnet; …
For a two-stage magnetic process, the Mn grade is elevated to 31.7% whereas the Mn recovery declines to 55.8%. Rao et al.5 conducted a magnetic separation study on medium-grade manganese ores containing 44% Mn. By using a wet high-intensity magnetic separator, a concentrate with 51% Mn was obtained and the Mn recovery …
Many pilot-scale suspension magnetizing roasting and magnetic separation tests were conducted for the beneficiation of refractory iron ores (Yu et al., 2018a(Yu et al.,, 2018b (Yu et al.,, …
In recent decades, it has become one of the key separation technologies in the utilization of the ores that contain magnetic minerals, such as iron oxides, ilmenite, wolframite, and manganese, and in the removal of magnetic impurities form non-metallic ores such as kaolin, quartz, and feldspar.
This study proposes the application of floc-magnetic separation to enhance the recovery of fine iron (Fe) ores from the Musan mine. The X-ray diffraction analysis revealed the predominant composition of raw samples to be magnetite (Fe 3 O 4) and quartz (SiO 2).Conventional magnetic separation indicated an increasing efficiency of …

Abstract. This chapter introduces the principle of how low-grade iron ores are upgraded to high-quality iron ore concentrates by magnetic separation. Magnetite is the most magnetic of all the naturally occurring minerals on earth, so low-intensity magnetic separators are used to upgrade magnetite ores. On the other hand, because oxidized …
