1.1 Types of iron ore Iron ores can be classified in different ways. The most important has to do with the iron content. In many cases, ore with a total iron content of 60% to 63%, or greater, is regarded as high grade, and ore with a lower iron content is regarded as low grade. Ores are also classified as follows, according to their
This goal can be achieved by beneficiation of low-grade iron reserves.
