Abstract:

In this research, a study has beed carried out on upgrading valuable mineral i.e. iron ore (magnetite and hematite) using jigging appratus. The study is based on an evaluation of low grade mineral deposits. A comparison of gravity separation techniques such as jigs and liquid fluidized beds are used to carry out the experimental and the effect of different variables like variations of particle size and water flow rate on separation performance of the devices are investigated. In this study, only the results of jigging apparatus have been included showing that almost 30% of valuable iron was recovered from the ore. However, the fines, less than 1 mm, were not recovered due to jigging apparatus limitations.
