Safe management and disposal of chromite ore processing residue (COPR) is an unsolved global problem. In spite of several global research efforts, the problem of safe management of COPR and redemption of dump sites has remained unsolved. There is a high risk for all living beings in and around the COPR dump sites due to prevailing …
Since more than 97% of elements Fe and Cr are basically enriched in chromite, it is difficult to achieve the purpose of improving Cr grade and Cr 2 O 3 /FeO in this chrome ore by using traditional selection and magnetic separation methods. But, the chemical dressing methods aiming to remove iron should be a choice.

ABSTRACT Mineral and morphological characteristics of chromite ore strongly affect the separation efficiency while upgrading the low-grade deposits. Usually, chromite ore enrichment is carried out by using gravity separation due to high-concentration criterion between chromite and other minerals. However, chromite ore …
One of the first minerals to separate from a cooling magma; large chromite ore deposits are thought to have been derived by such magmatic differentiation. The important countries for its production are …
Examples of other techniques used for different minerals are the separation of chromite grains from ferruginous chromite ore deposits in India using dry high-intensity magnetic separation, the ...
As a result, a wet magnetic separation technology for recovery of ultra-fine chromite (Cr 2 O 3) from spirals tailings as a scavenger was investigated. The Middle Group Chromitite layer (MG) spiral tailings was characterized using XRF, XRD, SEM and screen sieves with the aim of determining the viability of using the wet high intensity magnetic ...
The separation of chromite ore with lowest particle size fraction was done using Mozley mineral separator followed by the magnetic separation of the sink product by magnetic separator. The results obtained revealed about 77% of the total material containing 300 μm particle size, 52% ˂ 212 μm and 17% below 75 μm.
Chromium is largely used as alloying elements in steels for production of stainless steels. It is added in form of ferro-chromium, which is presently imported from Russia and Germany to meet the need of Nigerian Steel Industry. Chromite ore (FeOCr2O3) is the most important mineral occurrence of chromium, and some deposits …
This study, focused on the beneficiation of a Nigerian complex chromite ore sourced from Tunga-Kaduka, Anka Local Government of Zamfara State, Nigeria, assaying 45.85% …
African chromite production can be increased by a further 15 to 20% provided that there is a technology that can recover fine and ultrafine chromite effectively. Magnetic separation …
The Anka chromite ore of Turkey was enriched through the use of a cross-belt magnetic separator (CBMS) from a feed assayed to contain 36.8wt% Cr2O3 to 48wt% Cr2O3, with a Cr:Fe ratio of 6.2 [14]. The ultra-fine …
This study aimed to evaluate the chromite recovery from shaking table tail-ings of Forumad plant by a dry high-intensity magnetic separation. The average feed grade of chromium xide (Cr 2 O 3 ...
Laboratory studies are underway to attempt to answer the question about the nature of the relationship between massive chromite ore and the apparent chromite CR signature. For the sake of completeness, the total field magnetic profile has been included in Figure 25.
Learning from the ore-forming principle of natural mineral chromite, the hydrothermal treatment using FeSO 4 as the reducing agent successfully stabilized the …
Chromite can be also found with magnetite with a less frequency. For the ores in which chromite occurs with magnetite, low ratio and grade problems appear. In such circumstances, gravity...
The minimum metal content required for a deposit to qualify as an ore varies from metal to metal while the suitability of a deposit for economic mining and processing is controlled by location and size of the deposit, the ore-feed grade, mineralogy, and texture of the ore, mining cost and the cost of ancillary services such as power –supply ...
Chemical grade chromite ore, used to manufacture sodium dichromate, generally has a Cr203 content of over 44%, with a Cr:Fe ratio of about 1.5, and a silica content of less than 3.5%. ... chromite can be separated from ferromagnetic minerals as a non-magnetic product. Chromite and other paramagnetic minerals can therefore be …
Permittivity and Permeability. The reduction efficiency of chromite ore in the microwave field highly depends on its microwave absorption capability [], which relies on its corresponding complex relative permittivity and permeability [], as shown in Fig. 3.The relative dielectric constants (ε r ′), dielectric loss factors (ε r ″), magnetic constants (µ r …
Huge quantity of raw chromite ore is being mined and beneficiated in various chrome ore beneficiation plants throughout the world to cater the customized needs of various end users. The mined high-grade lumpy ores are directed to Ferro chrome plant after sizing to the requirement of the metallurgical operation, while the low-grade ore is ...
In some cases, chromite concentrates can be produced by wet gravity concentration alone. In other chromite beneficiation processes, magnetic separation by RED is an essential polishing step. Figure 3 shows a typical flowsheet for upgrading chromite where gravity concentration is followed by dry magnetic separation. Case studies
