Mineral Technologies can assist you to deliver a comprehensive range ...

Jigging is both an effective and efficient separation technology for beneficiating difficult to treat lower-grade iron ore fines, and jigging machines have been used in many operations (Das et al ...

alumina in iron ores, the low capacity is the major limitation in the application of MGS for the treatment of the iron ore slimes. However, with the development of higher capacity machines (30-50 tph), there is renewed interest in the possible use of MGS for iron ore applications. Kelsey Centrifugal Jig (KCJ)

Concentrate with required Cr 2 O 3 content and Cr/Fe ratio. ... The raw materials investigated were an oolitic iron ore, an electric furnace dust and a chromite ore. As the temperature of a mixture increased, the permittivities began to increase rapidly, at temperatures lower than for the raw material alone. Subsequently, as the temperatures ...

In another study by Alabi et al. compared the efficacy of a Kip Kelly dry-air tabling process and a Wifley wet tabling process on an iron (Fe) mineral ore with liberation particle size of −500 + 355 μm from Ajabanoko in Nigeria for the concentration and (high) upgrade of the mineral in order to accomplish the (metallurgical) purpose as ...
