Iron Ore

Iron ore is a mineral that contains iron elements, primarily classified into two categories: hematite (Fe₂O₃) and magnetite (Fe₃O₄). These ores typically exist in the earth's crust in ore form and are mined, then processed through crushing, grinding, and beneficiation to extract iron ore concentrates, which are ultimately used for smelting iron and steel.

Product characteristics

1.Chemical Composition: Iron content ranges from 30% to 70%, with impurities such as silicon, aluminum, phosphorus, and sulfur.

2.Physical Properties: Hematite appears red, while magnetite is black; both have a hardness of 5-6 and a density ranging from 2.5 to 5.0 g/cm³.

3.Smelting Characteristics: Iron ore has a high melting point and requires the addition of flux; it can be reduced to pure iron at high temperatures.


Iron ore is primarily used in steel production and is also utilized in the manufacturing of building materials and chemical products.
