Iron Ore Processing: From Extraction to Manufacturing
The extracted ore undergoes further processing to separate the valuable iron-bearing minerals from the impurities and gangue minerals, as described in the subsequent stages of iron ore processing. Exploration and extraction are vital steps in the iron ore processing chain, as they determine the presence and viability of iron ore deposits.
