Iron ore is a mineral block found underground. It is a source of raw iron, which can be smelted into iron ingots. Deepslate iron ore is a variant of iron ore that can generate in deepslate and tuff blobs. Iron ore itself can be obtained by mining it with a stone pickaxe or higher enchanted with Silk Touch. When mined without Silk Touch, iron ore drops raw iron. It is affected by Fortune ...

1. Gather iron ore. Iron ore can be bought or gathered, but for the sake of demonstration, we gathered the ore ourselves. The best time to collect iron ore is in the winter because the ocean is more active. Active waves separate the black, magnetic sand from lighter silica sand.

· Iron ore was won by drilling and blasting ().As mining technology generally developed, so did drilling techniques and the explosives used. Smith (1990) reported that the Cleveland deposit was associated with a very strong stone roof rock (known as "dogger") allowing mine drivages to be selfsupporting. However, he states that in later years where the mining had progressed to the dip, this ...

· The extraction of iron from its ores is quite a technical process. The iron ore is first roasted in air to produce iron(III) oxide which is mixed with coke and limestone and then further heated to a very high temperature in a blast furnace. These materials are loaded into the blast furnace from the top while a blast of hot air is introduced into it from beneath via small pipes known as tuyeres.

Iron ore can be upgraded to a higher iron ore content through beneficiation This process generates iron ore filter cake which needs to be pelletized to be used in the steel making process. Also during the processing of high grade iron ores which don''t need beneficiated, fines which are generated can be pelletized and used instead of being disposed of.

· The iron ore production has significantly expanded in recent years, owing to increasing steel demands in developing countries. However, the content of iron in ore deposits has deteriorated and lowgrade iron ore has been processed. The fines resulting from the concentration process must be agglomerated for use in iron and steelmaking.

2. Iron Ore Deposits Iron ore deposits are known to occur in sedimentary, hydrothermal, and magmatic environments, but production today is almost entirely from three types of deposit: deposits related to Precambrian banded iron formations provide about 90% of all iron ore mined, and the remainder is derived from metasomatic skarn and magmatic

Iron ore being unloaded at docks in Toledo, Ohio. Iron ores are rocks and minerals from which metallic iron can be economically extracted. The ores are usually rich in iron oxides and vary in color from dark grey, bright yellow, or deep purple to rusty red. The iron is usually found in the form of magnetite (Fe 3 O 4, % Fe), hematite (Fe 2 O 3, % Fe), goethite (FeO(OH), % Fe ...

· The process of mining consists of discovery of an iron ore deposit through extraction of iron ore and finally to returning the land to its natural state. It consists of several distinct steps. The first is discovery of the iron ore deposit which is carried out through prospecting or exploration to find and then define the extent, loion and value of the ore body.
