Webinar: Basic Facts about Mineral Magnetism with a focus on Iron Ore Minerals

A knowledge of mineral magnetic properties is a useful tool for testing and separating ores that are known to contain minerals amenable to magnetic separation.

This webinar covers the fundamentals of mineral magnetism, key magnetic parameters, and some guidance for selecting the right type of magnetic separator for particular iron ores.

Mention is made of particular laboratory tests that can be effectively applied during iron ore metallurgical testwork and these tests are likely to become more important as ore grades drop and high grade lump ores that only need crushing, screening and shipping become increasingly scarce.

Attendees will gain a clear framework to connect laboratory magnetic characterisation with selection of suitable magnetic separation equipment for plant design. 

The session will conclude with a live Q&A session to address specific ores and separation challenges.
