A number of Nigerian iron ore deposits have been upgraded to the specifications of concentrates for the blast furnace and the direct reduction iron- and steel-making plants. Depending on the mineralogy of the ore deposits, the techniques of oil agglomeration, magnetizing reduction, washing and scrubbing, gravity concentration, and reverse froth flotation have been utilized. A …

The Goldsworthy East Project is located directly adjacent to BHP's Goldsworthy Iron ore mine which produced 55mt at 63.5% between 1965 and 1982. A gravity survey completed by Macro in May 2023 has delineated a gravity high/magnetic low which is interpreted as being a substantial hematite target.
The iron ore mine is located on the Agbaja plateau, approximately 15km northwest of Lokoja city in Kogi State, and approximately 165km southwest of Abuja, the capital city of Nigeria. The plateau comprises a shallow, flat-lying channel iron deposit (CID) that is divided into two mining …

The Agbaja Iron Ore project in Kogi State Nigeria is a unique sedimentary hosted channel iron goethite deposit. The sedimentary ore allows for a simple beneficiation circuit resulting in a low-cost concentrate feed for pre-reduction and smelting to produce steel billets. However, the ore contains high levels of phosphorous (1-2 %) which need to be reduced for the crude steel to …

Abstract Two iron ore samples from Nigeria have been examined using TG, DTA, EGA, XRD, and optical and electron microscopy. Itakpe iron ore is hematite-rich, this mineral being intergrown with magnetite, and silica is the major impurity. Agbaja ore is an acidic oölite ore consisting of goethite and magnetite, with alumina, silica and phosphorus as major impurities. …
Itakpe is typical of a rich ore formed by magmatic segregation whilst Agbaja is a lean ore of sedimentary origin. Isothermal mass-change measurements in hydrogen and carbon monoxide in the range 800–1100°C show Agbaja to be less reducible than Itakpe; in particular, Agbaja is very irreducible at 1100°C because of sintering of the ore.
