The iron ore industries of India are expected to bring new technologies to cater to the need of the tremendous increase in demand for quality ores for steel making. With the highgrade ores depleting very fast, the focus is on the beneficiation of lowgrade resources. However, most of these ores do not respond well to the conventional beneficiation techniques used to achieve a suitable ...

The occurrence of alumina in the matrix of iron ore minerals, in particular goethite has also been reported. The iron ores containing significant proportion of goethite are thus more difficult to beneficiate because (a) relatively less iron content in the goethite ( % Fe) as compared to hematite (70 % Fe) and magnetite ( % Fe), bringing
