The typical specifications of Australia s iron ore fines are changing pointing to a long-term trend towards higher alumina and phosphorus and a slightly lower silica content in the world s largest pro. ... Platts also increased the typical phosphorus content considered in Pilbara Blend Fines -- Rio Tinto's flagship medium grade iron ore fines ...
The phosphorus content of the banded iron formation (BIF) and of the associated iron ore deposits in the north west of Western Australia is known to vary widely, a fact which has considerable econ~mic significance. Trendall and Blockley (1970) have described the variety of textural appearances of apatite in the Hamersley Group BlF, and suggest that apatite may …
Table 1 shows the results of the total chemical analysis of Muko iron ore in weight percentages. The most important elements and components of consideration in iron ores are the content of Fe, gangue (SiO 2 and Al 2 O 3) and contaminations such as P and S.
As sample Ug6 19 has the lowest content of Fe2O3 (86.7%) among the Muko iron ore samples, it is safe to assume that the reducibility parameters of samples Ug1-5 will be better than those obtained from the tests on the Ug6 samples.
At Okene, Kogi State, only 250 million tons of low-grade iron ore (35%Fe cf. 65%Fe in Guinea & Brazil) have been proven at Itakpe and Ajabonoko deposits, whereas only 500 million tons are …

In wrought iron phosphorus can provide some corrosion resistance. In some low alloy steels it is added to aid machinability but those are exceptions. In bloomery iron making it would most likely have been an impurity in the ore or …
The gasification removal behaviour of phosphorus from high-phosphorus iron ore is theoretically and experimentally studied in the temperature range of 400–900 °C under H 2 reducing and N 2 atmospheres. In the first step, thermodynamic analysis is conducted to reveal the gasification and reaction behaviours of common phosphorus compounds, namely P 4 O …

Unbeneficiated magnetitic iron ore was used in this study; the relatively high phosphorus content facilitates the detection via scanning electron microscope with energy-dispersive X-Ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDS). Table 1 …
Phosphorus in high phosphorus oolitic hematite is mainly present in the fluoroapatite, and the temperature of coal-based reduction is generally above 1200 °C, in which case, the fluoroapatite is likely to be reduced together with the iron oxide, causing a large amount of P to beabsorbed into the metallic iron phase [27].In order to reduce the P content in …
20 4.0 Concluding Discussion As can be observed in Figure 2, in Supplement 1, literature on iron ore in general and Muko iron ore in particular was gathered and studied. This provided an understanding of the occurrence and structures of iron ores, plus the methods used in its extraction and processing.
