Iron ore is a natural raw material exploited worldwide, this material is processed for use in the steel manufacturing industry.
Initially, iron ore was crushed and then screened to separate into lumps and fine iron ore. If iron (Fe) content in treated ore is> 60%, it is transported directly to the factory to produce iron and steel.
In commercial trade, there are many types of iron ore with different particle sizes and Fe content:
