Description. Iron Ore (fines) 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 colour from dark grey, bright yellow, deep purple, to rusty red. The iron itself is usually found in the form of magnetite (Fe 3 O 4), hematite (Fe 2 O 3), goethite (FeO(OH)), limonite …

$93.85 per ton. Based on reported prices for iron ore fines (62% iron content) imported into China (cost, insurance, and freight into Tianjin Port), the highest monthly average price during the first 9 months of 2021 was $214.43 per ton in June compared with the high of $155.43 per ton in December 2020. The lowest monthly average price during the
— During sintering process, iron ore fines, recycled iron-bearing materials (dusts and slags), fluxes (dolomite, limestone, etc.), and fossil fuels, such as coke breeze and anthracite, are thoroughly mixed and agglomerated into lump-like sinter under about 1300 °C provided by the combustion of fossil fuels [10].
1.1. Iron Ore Pellet Fines Iron and steel industry is considered as the backbone of industrialization. Generally, iron ore is present in nature in the form of magnetite, hematite, wusite, limonite and so on. In which hematite is the ore that can be directly used in iron making in the form of lumps.
— Sintering is an agglomeration process used to convert a mixture of iron ore fines, recycled ironmaking by-products, fluxes, slag-forming agents, and solid fuel (coke breeze or anthracite) into sinter.
