Particle-based approach to predict magnetite separation from iron ore tailing piles

Fatemeh Kazemi; Ali akbar Abdollahzadeh

Articles in Press, Accepted Manuscript, Available Online from 11 March 2025

https://doi.org/10.22044/jme.2025.15641.3002

Abstract
  This research work aims to explore the intricate mineralogy and texture of the tailing piles of iron ore processing plants to present a particle-based prediction for magnetite recovery. Three samples were taken from different points of tailings piles of an iron ore processing plant. Davis tube tests ...  Read More

Sustainable Reuse of Algerian Black Phosphate Mining Tailings to Recover P₂O₅

Rim Amata; Mohamed Bounouala; Ashraf Alsafasfeh; Amar Amata; Sofiane Bouabdallah

Volume 16, Issue 3 , May and June 2025, , Pages 877-887

https://doi.org/10.22044/jme.2024.15279.2928

Abstract
  The Djebel Onk region of Algeria faces a significant environmental concern, related to phosphate mining waste. Although these mining tailings contain relatively low quantities of valuable minerals, they still include up to 25% P₂O₅ in the particle size range of 0.25-1 mm (-1-+0.25), suggesting the ...  Read More

Optimizing Dry Beneficiation of Palygorskite Through Air Classification for Improved Grade and Recovery

Ashraf Alsafasfeh; Anum Razzaq; Abeer Sajid; Maryam Nazir; Muhammad Badar Hayat; Mirza Zaid

Volume 16, Issue 2 , March 2025, , Pages 557-568

https://doi.org/10.22044/jme.2024.14976.2854

Abstract
  Palygorskite (PAL), also known as attapulgite, is a clay mineral prized for its nanorod-like silicate structure and fibrous morphology. The traditional PAL purification methods often involve wet gravity separation techniques such as sedimentation and screening, which require significant water usage and ...  Read More

Simulation of Pyrrhotite Removal from Scheelite Ore by Magnetic Force in Table Concentration

Chol Ung Ryom; Kwang Hyok Pak; Il Chol Sin; Kwang Chol So; Un Chol Han

Volume 14, Issue 4 , October 2023, , Pages 1219-1237

https://doi.org/10.22044/jme.2023.13397.2469

Abstract
  Scheelite ore with heavy and magnetic minerals can be generally concentrated using shaking table centered gravity-magnetic processing. When magnetic field is formed by fixing magnetic bars on which permanent magnets are arranged at a constant interval, above the table desk, heavy scheelite particles ...  Read More

Potentiality of Physical Upgrading for Valuable Heavy Minerals from Sermatai Area, Egypt

M. Diab; M. Abu El Ghar; I. Mohamed Gaafar; A. H. Mohamed El Shafey; A. Wageh Hussein; M. Mohamed Fawzy

Volume 13, Issue 1 , January 2022, , Pages 15-32

https://doi.org/10.22044/jme.2022.11479.2136

Abstract
  In this work we are concerned with the potentiality of using mineral processing for raising the grade of the valuable heavy minerals (VHMs) from the Quaternary stream sediments of Wadi and Delta Sermatai located on the southern coast of the Red Sea, Egypt. A rigorous understanding of the chemical and ...  Read More
