بیشترWorld resources are estimated to be greater than 800 billion tons of crude ore containing more than 230 billion tons of iron. The only source of primary iron is iron ore, but before all that iron ore can be turned into steel, it must go through the sintering process. Sinter is the primary feed material for making iron and steel in a blast furnace.
بیشتر2.1 Iron Ore Composition Iron very rarely occurs in the earth's surface as a metal. It is widely distributed, combined with oxygen as iron oxides. In fact it is believed that iron makes up about 5% by weight of the earth's crust. Geologists recognise various types of iron ore, classified chiefly according to iron (Fe) content (see Table 1 below).
