What are the impurities in iron?
The carbon forms carbon monoxide. Since this is a gas it removes itself from the iron! What are the impurities present in ores called? Ores usually contain soil, sand, stones and other useless silicates. These undesired impurities present in ores are called gangue or matrix. What is the effect of impurities on cast iron?

The Occurrence of Phosphorus and Other Impurities in Australian Iron Ores
The characterisation of high-P iron ores by field emission gun electron probe microanalyser (FEGEPMA) was carried out to determine elemental associations in iron oxides sensus lato and, using this knowledge, to speculate on possible P incorporation mechanisms in goethite. Quantitative data was collected from two goethite-rich bulk ores and results showed that in …

Process of removing iron impurities from ores
A process of removing iron impurities from ores, particularly useful for removing stains of iron impurities adhered to silica sand particles, comprises grinding the ore, washing and desliming the ground ore to remove the major part of the clay-type binder, attrition-scrubbing the deslimed particles to release further amounts of binder therefrom, washing and desliming to remove said …

Iron ores contain a large amount of sandy impurities. These impurities are removed from the blast furnace when they react with calcium oxide compounds. Molten iron and molten slag accumulate at the bottom of the blast furnace, while waste gases, such as carbon dioxide and nitrogen, escape through pipes at the top of the blast furnace.
