Australia’s iron ore production has seen strong growth over the past five decades and over this period of time a very significant change in the blend of Australian iron ore production has occurred Initially there was a clear preference for the mining of Premium Brockman

The undissolved waste bauxite tailings after the aluminium compounds are extracted contains iron oxides silica calcia titania and some unreacted alumina After separation of the residue by filtering pure gibbsite is precipitated when the liquid is cooled and

Aluminium being highly reactive is used in the extraction of chromium and manganese from their ium reduces oxides of these metals Reactions

In addition the higher the kaolinite or reactive silica content of the bauxite the more red mud will be generated The reactive silica content not only increases the volume of red mud but also consumes caustic soda reagent and reduces the yield of Al2O3 recovered from the bauxite

312 SiO 2 and Al 2 O 3 Contents in Iron Ores The alumina to silica ratio that is typically greater than one possesses serious operational problems during sintering and subsequent smelting in the blast furnace 16 17 More specifically high alumina content in iron ore and sinter leads to a viscous slag during smelting in a blast furnace
