A new method for separating and recovering tin from a low-grade tin middling with high Si content and low Fe content by roasting with anthracite coal was researched by studying the reaction mechanism and performing an industrial test, in which the Sn was sulfurized into SnS(g) and then collected using a dust collector. The Fe-Sn alloy may be formed at roasting …
An important distinction in Fe exploration is to determine in which mineral phases the Fe is hosted, rather than just the total Fe content. Significant portions of the total Fe in a magnetite deposit can be hosted in hematite or pyrrhotite, and of course silicate minerals.
