Iron Ore
A Key Resource for Steel and Heavy Concrete Applications
Description
Iron ore is a naturally occurring mineral used primarily in steel production, forming the foundation of modern construction, infrastructure, machinery, and industrial manufacturing.
It is commonly mined in the form of hematite, magnetite, and siderite, each offering specific technical characteristics for different applications.
Certain iron ore types, particularly magnetite, are valued for their high density, making them suitable for specialized uses such as heavy concrete and radiation-shielding applications.
The availability of iron ore in various grades allows manufacturers to select materials that meet precise performance and structural requirements.
Safety Information
Non-toxic, non-flammable, non-hazardous.
Quality Control & Sampling Procedure
The quality of the iron ore supplied is verified through a sampling and testing procedure conducted during loading operations.
Sampling is carried out in accordance with applicable ISO or ASTM standards, ensuring representative and statistically valid samples of the material delivered.
Samples are analyzed for chemical composition, iron content, density, and key physical properties relevant to steelmaking and heavy concrete applications.
A Certificate of Quality is issued based on the results of these analyses.
