| Abstract Scope |
There is a solid-solution series between magnetite (Fe3O4) and the iron-titanium mineral ulvospinel (Fe2TiO4). There is a large volume of this mineral series in many locations in the world. At one extreme, this is a valuable iron ore; at the other, a titanium ore. But in between? Pat Taylor and his research group have worked in the processing of titanomagnetites and a major accessory mineral to these systems, ilmenite (FeTiO3). The development of technologies for processing of these ores - for minor contained elements such as vanadium and chromium, as well as iron and titanium - will be discussed, as well as future prospects. |
