Title:

Development of Process Know-How for Low Grade Iron Ore Beneficiation

Value Proposition:

Recovery of  iron values through physical beneficiation from the low grade iron ore or slimes/tailings.

Summary Application:

The process have been implemented for enrichment of iron values from the following:

  • High clay content Hematitic iron ore 
  • Low grade Goethitic-Hematitic iron ore
  • Fine & ultrafine iron ore tailings & slimes 
Advantages:
  • Removal of clay content at the pre concentration level
  • Efficient grinding & dewatering circuit 
Commercialization Status: Already Commercialised
