Iron comes from iron ore which is a combination of the element iron and other metals and rock. This ore is then refined to extract the pure iron. This is done through the process of smelting. Australia is the world's largest iron ore exporter with the majority of the ore being mined from Western Australia. 50 countries worldwide produce iron

Iron ore is the raw material used to make pig iron, which is one of the main raw materials to make steel. 98% of the mined iron ore is used to make steel. Minnesota's iron ore was actually discovered while prospectors were searching for gold. Since the object of their search was gold, the iron was ignored.

23.10.2020· Why is Iron Ore Valuable? Iron ore is a rock from which the metal iron is extracted. About 98% of the world's iron is used to produce steel.. Pure iron is an element and a soft grayish-white metal. Other than meteorites that fall from the sky, iron is never found by itself in nature.

Bog iron is a form of impure iron deposit that develops in bogs or swamps by the chemical or biochemical oxidation of iron carried in solution. In general, bog ores consist primarily of iron oxyhydroxides, commonly goethite (FeO (OH)). Iron-bearing groundwater typically emerges as a spring.

It takes around 1.6 tons of iron ore to produce one ton of steel. The chemical symbol for iron is 'Fe' because of its Latin name Ferrum. We use 20 times more iron (in the form of steel) than all other metals put together. Our iron ore trains are over 2.5km (264 ore cars) long, meaning it can take half an hour from one end to the other.

Iron ore minerals, particularly hematite and goethite, are beneficiated by a combination of size fraction, preconcentration, and flotation in stages (Fig. 13.45).Iron ore requires removal of silicate impurities of a finer size by flotation for higher-grade products of +60% Fe. ROM ore at 400–600 mm is fed to a primary crusher with product set at –40 mm.

Ore, which contains an economical use of iron, is called an iron ore. There are many types of iron ore, magnetite (Fe3O4), hematite (Fe2O3) and (FeCO3), etc, which are mainly used for iron making. Iron ore is an important raw material for iron and steel production enterprises.

To create a ton of pig iron, you start with 2 tons (1.8 metric tons) of ore, 1 ton of coke (0.9 metric tons) and a half ton (0.45 metric tons) of limestone. The fire consumes 5 tons (4.5 metric tons) of air. The temperature at the core of the blast furnace reaches nearly 3,000 degrees F

The iron ore shown to the right was excavated from Skógar, a Viking-age iron-making site in Iceland. The larger piece is about 2cm (less than 1in) in the long dimension. Sometime about 1000 years ago, someone gathered this iron ore, processed it, transported it to the iron smelting site, but for unknown reasons, never used it in a smelt.
