Mineralogo-tekhnologichesky features tails of wet magnetic separation of the iron ores and prospect of extraction of iron from them

Research of material structure of tails of wet magnetic separation of iron ores of skarnovo-magnetitovy type of Krasnoyarsk Krai is carried out. The estimated resource potential of a technogenic deposit makes about 20 million t of raw materials magnetite - hematite type. The look-ahead assessment of possibility of adoption of technological decisions on use of stale tails is given. Recommendations are developed for a choice of the combined gravitational and magnetic technology of processing of stale tails.
