Characterization and liberation studies of kiriburu low grade iron ore …
India is one of the leading producers of iron ore in the world. According to the National Steel Policy-2005, India aims at 110 million tons (Mt) of finished steel production from the current level of approximately 40 Mt by the year 2019-20 (IMYB, 2008). To produce 110 Mt finished steel, around 170 Mt of quality iron ore (+63%Fe) is required.

Enhanced gravity separator in processing Indian iron ore slime
The present practice of beneficiation of iron ores in India produces lumpy ores (for blast furnace), classifier fines (for sinter plant) and slimes (Below 150 mm) which are stored in tailings pond. the estimated generation of slimes is 10-25% of the iron ore mined amounting to 18 million tonnes per year. Besides the loss of iron ore mined amounting to 18 million tonnes per year.
