Smelting
Smelting is an energyintensive process used to refine an ore into usable metal. Most ore deposits contain metals in the reacted or combined form. Magnetite (Fe3 O 4 ), hematite (Fe 2 O 3 ), goethite (αFeO [OH]), limonite (the generic formula for limonite is FeO [OH].nH 2 O), and siderite (FeCO 3) are iron ores, and Cu 5 FeSO 4 is a copper ore.

About Us
Processing Methods. Depending on the ore, we process it using the following methods: We feed ore into a series of crushers and grinding mills to reduce the size of the ore particles and expose the mineral. Water is also added, which turns the ore into a slurry. We send this slurry to leaching tanks, where we add a weak cyanide solution to the ...
