The iron ore deposits of Iron Quadrangle were subjected at least to two metamorphism and deformation events. The metamorphic and deformation intensity increase from west to east and from south to north in the region. These processes beyond the supergene processes were the main factors that changed the texture of the iron ore of this region.
The production of iron from its ore involves an oxidationreduction reaction carried out in a blast furnace. Iron ore is usually a mixture of iron and vast quantities of impurities such as sand and clay referred to as gangue. The iron found in iron ores are found in the form of iron oxides. As a result of these impurities, iron must be first ...

1. Iron ore supply and demand outline Types of iron ore Iron ores can be classified in different ways. The most important has to do with the iron content. In many cases, ore with a total iron content of 60% to 63%, or greater, is regarded as high grade, and ore with a lower iron content is regarded as low grade.
The beneficiation techniques such as scrubbing, classification, gravity separation, magnetic separation and flotation are generally utilized to enhance the quality of the iron ores. In India, beneficiation is carried out by washing, jigging or classification techniques.
The flotation has been successfully applied to process the iron ore for the particle size (Ps) from 10 µm up to 150 µm.

The rule of LPF index of iron ores under the mole ratio method is different from that with basicity method. When the mole ratio method is used, the LPF index of iron ore decreases with the increase in gangue content. The molar ratio method is more in line with the liquid phase formation behavior of iron ore during the actual sintering process. 2.
