Abstract :

One of the main concepts in mineral processing circuit design is producing required product with highest weight recovery. Because of required product quality limitations, it puts low-grade products and fine materials inside a gray region. Most of the time, this design concept cause to reject fine particle and low-grade flow of materials from dressing circuits and ends with considerable amount of valuable mineral losing into tailing dam and pounds. Markets and new needs for raw materials in conjunction with technical developments in fine and ultra-fine particle processing techniques promising the need to change that general agreement concept to better one like producing tailing with zero valuable mineral content. In this article, an industrial iron ore processing plant alternative with 3.2 Mtpy tailing production has been studied and a pre-feasibility technical study of producing various products and achieving to zero valuable content tailing has been studied and the results showed that it is possible to have a tailing with less than 10% total iron content just by magnetic separation.
