haematite ore beneficiation process

Hematite Ore Beneficiation Process

The hematite ore beneficiation process typically involves crushing, grinding, magnetic separation, and flotation to extract high-grade iron concentrate. Below is a detailed breakdown of the crushing and sand-making production line equipment tailored for hematite processing.

Crushing & Sand-Making Production Line

A typical hematite ore processing line includes:
1. Primary Jaw Crusher: Reduces large raw ore (≤1200mm) to ≤350mm. Model example: PE900×1200, with a capacity of 220-450 t/h.
2. Secondary Cone Crusher: Further crushes ore to ≤50mm. Example: HPT300, outputting 200-400 t/h.
3. Tertiary Impact Crusher/VSI Sand Maker: Produces fine aggregates (≤30mm) or artificial sand (0-5mm). Model: VSI6X1263, capacity 50-500 t/h.

Key Equipment Parameters

Equipment Model Feed Size (mm) Output Size (mm) Capacity (t/h)
Jaw Crusher PE900×1200 ≤1200 ≤350 220-450
Cone Crusher HPT300 ≤350 ≤50 200-400
VSI Sand Maker S6X1263 ≤55 0-5 (sand) 50-500

Screening & Magnetic Separation Equipment

High-frequency screens separate crushed materials into desired sizes before magnetic separators extract iron concentrate from gangue minerals.

The Process Flow

Raw hematite → Primary crushing → Secondary crushing → Tertiary crushing/sand making → Screening → Magnetic separation → Concentrate storage.

The Final Product Specifications

Iron concentrate grade ≥65%, tailings ≤15%. Sand products meet GB
