Item Proposal for an environmentally sustainable beneficiation route for the amphibolitic Itabirite from the Quadrilátero Ferrífero - Brazil.(2020) Gonçalves, Gizele Maria Campos; Lima, Rosa Malena FernandesThe high world demand for iron ores opposed to the rapid exhaustion of high-grade deposits from the main producing regions around the world has motivated the search and/or improvement of beneficiation routes, which enable the economic use of iron formations previously considered marginal ores, which have the potential to considerably increase mineable reserves due to their large volume. In this study, a sample of amphibolitic itabirite from the eastern region of the Quadrilátero Ferrífero, minas Gerais, Brazil was characterized, aiming at its use in the industrial pelletizing circuit. The main physical characteristics of this ore are moisture = 10% and specific weight = 3710 kg/m3 . The ore has a high grade of loss on ignition—LOI (6.7%) and P (0.14%). Through X-ray diffractometry (XRD), optical microscopy and scanning electron microscope—SEM, the ore was found to consist of 64.5% goethite (amphibolitic, alveolar, massive and earthy); 6.8% hematite (martitic, granular and lamellar) and 0.9% magnetite. The main gangue mineral is quartz (25.5%). Based on the results of concentration tests (magnetic and flotation) performed with the studied sample, the magnetic concentration route of deslimed sample followed by the addition of slimes in magnetic concentrate can be incorporated into the pelletizing process.Item Wet high-intensity magnetic separators (WHIMS) for recovering iron from tailings deposited in dams,(2019) Rocha, Rafaella Bicalho da; Reis, Érica Linhares; Ribeiro, José PancrácioIron ore tailings dams at Quadrilátero Ferrífero, Minas Gerais (MG), Brazil, are full and present significant risks. The material contains approximately 30% of the iron, and recovering this iron is important in decreasing the environmental impact and increasing production. The objective of the present work was to study magnetic concentration of processing plant tailings. Pilot tests optimized the processing configuration, but the planned iron grade was only possible with cleaning stages. Industrial tests were configured into three concentration stages (rougher, cleaner, and recleaner), and obtained a 63% iron grade concentrate representing a mass recovery of around 15%.
