Iron ore is mined from deposits around the world, often in the form of hematite or magnetite. These ores are then processed to extract the iron content, which serves as the foundation for steel production. Stage 2: Ironmaking. Once the iron ore is obtained, it's subjected to a process known as ironmaking.

Geology, deposit types, and ore minerals. There are more than 200 minerals that contain REE. 7,8 The most common rare-earth minerals are monazite and bastnäsite (Figure 1a–b and Table II).Monazite exists as a group of arsenates, phosphates, and silicates, but the primary REE-bearing monazite is a complex phosphate. 5 Bastnäsite, …

How steel is made. First, the raw materials, either iron ore or scrap iron (depending on the process), are converted into molten steel. The ore-based process uses a blast furnace or smelter and the scrap-based process uses an electric arc furnace. Next, the molten steel is poured and solidified in a continuous caster.

The crushed ore is transferred to a grinding mill, which contains heavy-duty steel balls or rods. As the mill rotates, the balls or rods crush and grind the ore, resulting in the formation of a fine powder. The purpose of crushing and grinding the gold ore is to liberate the valuable gold particles from the surrounding rock and minerals.
