Understanding the effects of goethitic iron ore
Goethite present in iron ore deposits affects how your mine manages the handling and processing of ore. Failing to understand how the different textural composition of goethite impacts processing performance can lead to downtime and reduced mine efficiency.

Iron
Mining. Most iron ores mined today comprise the iron oxide minerals hematite, Fe 2 O 3 (70% Fe); goethite, Fe 2 O 3 s H 2 O, (63% Fe); limonite, a mixture of hydrated iron oxides (up to 60% Fe); and magnetite, Fe 3 O 4 (72% Fe). As with most iron ore mines throughout the world, all the major Australian iron ore mines are open cut.

Goethite occurs with colloform structure, fracture fillings/cavity fillings and pisolith enclaving clay at the core (Fig. 1 a–d). At places, pisoliths of clay of varied size are cemented by goethite giving an intimate interlocking of clay and goethite to a scale of <10 μm. The observations reveal that the interlocking of goethite and clay ...
