At Kallak, the iron mineralisation in the ground, that is to be mined, contains approximately 28 per cent iron content ("Fe") which, through enrichment, can be upgraded to a 'market leading' concentrate containing 71.5 per cent Fe. The high-grade concentrate makes Kallak production attractive to downstream markets, such as fossil-free steelmakers.

The iron ore pelletizing process consists of three main steps: Pelletizing feed preparation and mixing: the raw material (iron ore concentrate, additives—anthracite, dolomite—and binders are prepared in terms of particle …
Iron ores are rocks and minerals from which metallic iron can be economically extracted. The ores are usually rich in iron oxides and vary in color from dark grey, bright yellow, or deep purple to rusty red. The iron is usually found in the form of magnetite (Fe 3O 4, 72.4% Fe), hematite (Fe 2O 3, 69.9% Fe), goethite (FeO(OH), 62.9% Fe), limonite (FeO(OH)·n(H2O), 55% Fe) or siderite (FeCO3, 48.2% Fe).
The present invention discloses an advantageous and effective process for the concentration of iron ores, which can be fully dry or mixed, part of the process being dry, part wet, such enhancing the process efficiency as a whole by increasing recovery of concentrators and increasing the useful life of the mines.

Iron ores occur in igneous, metamorphic (transformed), or sedimentary rocks in a variety of geologic environments. Most are sedimentary, but many have been changed by weathering, and so their precise origin is difficult to determine. The most widely distributed iron-bearing minerals are oxides, and iron ores consist mainly of hematite (Fe2O3), which is red; magnetite …
