The majority of the world production of iron ore consists of haematite and magnetite ores. The chemical formula for pure hematite ore is Fe2O3 which contains 70 % of Fe. The chemical formula for pure magnetite ore is Fe3O4 which contains 72.41 % of Fe. The ore which is extracted at the mine is called 'run of mine' (ROM) ore.
Magnetite (Fe 3 O 4) is a common iron ore mineral in iron ore deposits of metasedimentary and magmatic origin.Magnetite has an inverse spinel structure and is partly altered in near-surface environments to hematite or kenomagnetite (Waychunas, 1991).Hematite is commonly thought to form from oxidation of magnetite in the near …
