Avoided energy cost of producing minerals: The case of iron ore
The concentration of minerals involves the transportation of the rocks from the mine to the concentration plant and different processes of mineral concentration [47]. Thus, the total specific energy for concentrating iron ore at the average ore grade ( ∼ 50% iron) from Thanatia (3.63% iron) was considered as the sum of the energy for the …

Dry beneficiation of iron ore
The haematite ore in South Africa is processed in a dry process to a HQ lump ore with 64 % iron content and a sintered fine ore with 63.5 % iron content. For fine ore beneficiation, wet processes are used. Capacity at the Minas Rio is to be increased from 26.5 Mta capacity to 28 Mta in the forthcoming years.
