Influence of green pellet properties on pelletizing of magnetite iron ore

Magnetite iron ore green pellets are produced by balling moist concentrates to green pellets, which are then dried, oxidized to hematite, sintered, cooled and transported to steelmaking plants. ... Slag formation in the grate-kiln process is a major problem for iron-ore pellet producers. It is therefore important to understand the slag ...

Iron Ore Statistics and Information | U.S. Geological Survey

Iron ore is a mineral substance which, when heated in the presence of a reductant, will yield metallic iron (Fe). It almost always consists of iron oxides, the primary forms of which are magnetite (Fe 3 O 4) and hematite (Fe 2 O 3 ). Iron ore is the source of primary iron for the world's iron and steel industries.
