hematite, heavy and relatively hard oxide mineral, ferric oxide (Fe 2 O 3 ), that constitutes the most important iron ore because of its high iron content (70 percent) and its abundance. Its name is derived from the Greek word for "blood," in allusion to its red colour. Many of the various forms of hematite have separate names.
Magnetic separation is a common method for processing low-grade iron ore, removing naturally occurring magnetic iron from nonmagnetic materials, with reduction …
The magnetite–hematite ores of the Mikhailovskoye deposit are characterized by fine dissemination of ore and gangue minerals, the complexity of the structural and textural features and material composition, a low-level contrast in the magnetic properties of the separated minerals, and so forth. 28−30 The content of iron in these ores ranges ...
