Indian Journal of Science and Technology, 2020. Background/Objectives: Due to soaring demand and rapid depletion of high-grade iron ores, lean grade iron ores of India like BHJ and BHQ needs to be utilized through suitable beneficiation techniques.
To identify and establish beneficiation techniques for banded hematite quartzite (BHQ) iron ore, a comprehensive research on BHQ ore treatment was carried out. The BHQ ore was assayed as 38.9wt% Fe, 42.5wt% SiO2, and 1.0wt% Al2O3. In this ore, hematite and quartz are present as the major mineral phases where goethite, martite, and magnetite are present in …

On the basis of their mineral reaction textures along magnetite-quartz grain …
In general, three major iron deposits have been extensively described in the Arabian Shield of Saudi Arabia (Fig. 7.2): (1) An Oligocene–Miocene oolitic hematite–goethite deposit at the Wadi Fatima–Ashumaysi area (Al-Hazzaa 1973; Galmed et al. 2021), (2) a Precambrian magnetite and hematite BIF deposit at Wadi Sawawin (Stern et al. 2006 ...
Supergene modification of primary BIF-derived ore textures can substantially change lump metallurgical properties, with hydration and dehydration favourably increasing lump yield, but …
Iron ore is one of the main mineral resources that support economic development and industrial development in the world. The reserves of banded iron formation (BIF)-hosted iron ores account for more than 60% of the total iron ore reserves [1,2].The spatial distribution characteristics of minerals in iron ore are closely related to the difficulty of its beneficiation [].
Flotation is the standard global process used for the beneficiation of BIF ores, as it is a complex ore reserve, and liberation is typically achieved below 1 mm. This study focuses …
These banded ores contain iron bands of hematite or magnetite associated with quartz or jasper as the silica bands. Banded hematite quartzite (BHQ) ore, a significant contributor to India's BIF resources, assays around 30–40% Fe, 40–50% SiO 2, and 0.5–2.5% Al 2 O 3 [4]. It has hematite as the iron phase mineral with quartz, whereas the ...
A BIF sample grading at 44% Fe and comprising predominantly of hematite and quartz with minor amounts of magnetite and goethite was subjected to three fines gravity …
A BIF sample grading at 44% Fe and comprising predominantly of hematite and quartz with minor amounts of magnetite and goethite was subjected to three fines gravity processing routes to...
X-ray peaks of hematite indicate presence of hematite in majority. It is observed that coarser grains, having >1.0 mm size, consist of more hematite compared to finer grains (0.15–1.0 mm size), and finer grains consist of more of goethite and limonite. Flaky-friable ores, when flaky or platy in nature, consist of hematite as major mineral.

banded iron ore formation (BIF)—banded hematite quartzite (BHQ), banded hematite jasper (BHJ) and banded magnetite quartzite (BMQ)—are yet to be explored due to the fine na-ture of the ore which is difficult to treat by straight-forward selective flocculation means. These low grade BIF ores con-tain 28-40% Fe and 40-55% SiO 2. The minerals ...

Banded Iron Formations (BIFs) are distinctive units of sedimentary rocks composed of alternating layers of iron-rich minerals, mainly hematite and magnetite, and silica-rich minerals like chert or quartz. The name "banded" comes from the alternating bands of different compositions, creating a layered appearance. BIFs often also contain other minerals …
