The main difficulty in processing and utilization of low-grade iron ores primarily stems from their mineralogical characteristics as well as the soft nature of some ores and their high silica content. Thus, beneficiating the low-grade iron ores to remove the gangue minerals and enhancing their grade is an attractive proposition today.

1. Iron ore - supply and demand outline 1.1 Types of iron ore Iron ores can be classified in different ways. The most important has to do with the iron content. In many cases, ore with a total iron content of 60% to 63%, or greater, is regarded as high grade, and ore with a lower iron content is regarded as low grade.
