Production

1. Mining Ore

Open cut, hard rock iron ore mining, using truck and shovel. Average Fe content of 30%.

2. Crushing

The ore is crushed and screened to allow it to be upgraded through separation by two crushing plants.
Input particle size: 0-1,200mm, output particle size: 0-20mm.

3. Dry Magnetic Separation

Dry magnetic separation separates waste material from the iron resulting in output particles of 0-20mm
with a Fe content of 40%.

4. Beneficiation

5. Pelletising

Four kiln grate units which heat and form the materials into pellets of around 16mm.
Temperature of pelletising kiln: 1,250ºC.

6. Distribution
