Bulk Manganese Ore Shipping

During bulk manganese ore shipping, the ore is typically loaded into the ship's holds using cranes or conveyor belts, and then secured using steel chains or straps to prevent shifting during transport. Manganese ore is usually transported in large quantities, with typical shipments ranging from 50,000 to 200,000 metric tons.
