mining technology: Iron Ore Processing for the Blast Furnace
The mill discharge is screened at 1/4" on trommel screens attached to the mill. Ore smaller than 1/4" is pumped in slurry solution to the wet cobber magnetic separator, which begins the process of separating the iron from the non-iron material. The magnetic iron ore is then laundered in two slurry surge tanks while the non-magnetics (silica ...
