Ferro-chrome (Fe-Cr) alloy is essential for the production of stainless steel and special steels which are widely used and are of high quality, typically characterized by a high corrosion resistance and a low tendency to magnetization. The processing cycle of Fe-Cr involves the chemical reduction of the chromite ore. Smelting of HC Fe-Cr ferro ...



High carbon ferrochrome is primarily used in the production of stainless steel. More than 90% of high carbon ferrochrome is used in the production of stainless steel (International Chromium Development Association [ICDA], 2011). The majority of the balance is used in the manufacturing of special steels (including high chromium steels). …



Dwarsrivier Chrome Mine Proprietary Limited("DCM") was previously held in a 50% by Assore Limited now Assore South Africa Proprietary Limited ("Assore") and 50% by African Rainbow Minerals Limited ("ARM"). In 2016 Assore concluded its acquisition of the remaining 50% of Dwarsrivier from ARM and is now its shareholder.



Energy has been at the top of the agenda for ferro-chrome producers – perhaps more than ever over the past couple of years – with electricity prices spiking at the end of 2021 and into 2022 following the global squeeze on supplies.. This was exacerbated in the latter part of 2022 with the onset of the energy crisis in Europe, pushing costs up …



1. Introduction. Ferrochrome slag is a by-product of the production of ferro-chrome alloy, an essential component in stainless steel. The conventional process of ferrochrome making involves the carbothermic reduction of chromite ore where around 1.2–1.5 tons of slag containing approximately 8–12% of chromium oxide is generated …

MFC is situated in Middelburg, Mpumalanga and was established in 1964 as a Low Carbon Ferrochrome production facility. Charge chrome was first produced on this site in 1974 by Middelburg Steel and Alloys (Pty) Ltd, which was acquired by Samancor in 1991, making it one of only a few alloy plants in the world able to produce both charge chrome and low …



Both units now comprise five underground mining areas, each with a hoisting shaft, while WCM also includes an open-cut mine. Overall capacity is approximately 5.8Mtpa of run-of-mine ore. Underground, Samancor relies mainly on room-and-pillar mining, typically with low-angle adits connecting to a horizontal access level.









Adding ferrochrome to steel alloys enhances their resistance to corrosion, oxidation, and wear, making them suitable for specialized applications in machinery, tools, and equipment. Refractory Materials: Ferrochrome finds application in the manufacturing of refractory materials, which are resistant to high temperatures and chemical corrosion.





Ferrochrome (FeCr) is the main source of chromium (Cr) units used in modern-day chromium (Cr) containing alloys. The vast majority of produced Cr is used during the production of stainless steel, which owes its corrosion resistance mainly to the presence of Cr. In turn, stainless steel is mainly produced from Cr-containing scrap …
