The chromite layers found within the BC are widely recognised as potential sources of PGMs [].Historically, the low grades of PGMs in the main chromite layers have made their extraction and recovery economically unfeasible [].In the past, the focus of mining operations in the BC was primarily on the extraction of chromite for its use in the production of ferrochrome.
Chromite ((ce{FeCr2O4})) is the most commercially useful ore, and is extensively used for extraction of chromium. Chromium is produced in two forms: Ferrochrome by the reduction of chromite with coke in an electric arc furnace. A low-carbon ferrochrome can be produced by using ferrosilicon instead of coke as the reductant.
Due to its metallic luster and occasional magnetic properties, chromite is often mistaken for magnetite. Chromite can often be found in basic igneous rocks, and in the metamorphic and sedimentary rocks created by rocks containing chromite that were affected by weather. A particularly useful metal, chromium, can be extracted from chromite ore.

Chromite, the most viable among the chromium minerals, is used continuously to produce high-quality chromium compounds. The economics of chromite recovery from the ore depends upon the occurrence and its chemical composition [1,2,3].In Nigeria, for example, sufficient reserves of chromite ore are found at Awe Local Government of Nassarawa State, …

The magnetic separation tech-nique with or without reduction roasting method was used
Nickel was recovered from low-grade chromite ores using a culture media of a combination of acidophiles which At. ferrooxidans was predominating. It was found that a higher concentration of ferrous ions in the culture media resulted in a higher nickel recovery. ... Nickel is extracted from laterite ores with a low nickel content using ...
However, the quantity of extracted alumina from NaAlO 2 in Brazilian and Indonesian ores is dependent on the stoichiometric ratio of chromite: Na 2 CO 3. By increasing the alkali content in the mixture, the complex aluminium-silicates minerals breakdown at elevated temperature (>1000 °C) and form NaAlO 2, which is well understood and reported ...
A novel reductive alkali roasting of chromite ores for carcinogen-free Cr6+-ion extraction of chromium oxide (Cr2O3) – A clean route to chromium product manufacturing! ... is a hazardous waste generated during the production of chromate. Currently, approximately 10% of Cr 2 O 3 cannot be extracted after chromite sodium roasting and remains in ...
The chromite scavenging circuit generally consists of 4-6 stages of spiraling with desliming cyclones and ... (in percentage for each metal) for the LG6 and MG1/2 ores does vary slightly and are ...
The current strategy reports the recovery of precious group metals (PGMs) from Na2CO3 roast of Saudi Arabian ophiolitic chromite ore at 1160 °C under atmospheric O2. The influence of roasting temperature (960–1200 °C) and leaching agents (H2O, HCl, H2SO4) and their concentrations on the recovery of PGMs was studied. Chromite roast concentrates a …
The ores seen in this type of deposit have nodular texture and are loosely-packed nodules with a size range of 5–20 mm. ... Na-mica, albite, and jadeite. [19] Chromium extracted from chromite is used on a large scale in many industries, including metallurgy, electroplating, paints, tanning, and paper production. ...
The present work demonstrates the extraction of nickel from low-grade chromite overburden by using solid state reduction and direct smelting route. ... 31 32 1: Introduction 1 33 Traditionally nickel is extracted from laterite and sulphide nickel ores. Around 70% nickel occurs as a 34 lateritic ore reserves, but 60% of the world production of ...
Chromium is extracted from chromite ore found in stratiform and podiform deposits. South Africa is home to the world's largest chromite resources.
Trace elements in chromite ores from the Mayarí-Baracoa ophiolitic belt (eastern Cuba) March 2022; ... Data sources of the other fields have been extracted from Farré-de-Pablo et al. (2020) and ...
What is Chromite? Chromite is an oxide mineral composed of chromium, iron, and oxygen (FeCr 2 O 4).It is dark gray to black in color with a metallic to submetallic luster and a high specific gravity. It occurs in basic and ultrabasic …
A Fig. 1 XRD patterns of experimental minerals. a Chromite ore; b saprolite ore; c manganese ore 123 R. D. Laranjo, N. M. Anacleto sample of mixed chromite, nickel laterite and manganese ores with a total mass of 20 g together with a few percent of coal was mixed together and blended until the mixture became homogeneous.
Chromite, relatively hard, metallic, black oxide mineral of chromium and iron (FeCr2O4) that is the chief commercial source of chromium. It is the principal member of the spinel series of …
Chemical-grade chromite ore generally ranged from 40 to 46 pct Cr2O3 with a chromium-to-iron ratio of 1.5:1 to 2:1. Refractory-grade chromite ores contained a minimum of …
Some very minor placer (sedimentary) chromite deposits have been mined, but hydrothermal deposits are unknown. More than 98% of Al is mined as bauxite, a lateritic soil that forms in hot and humid climates; but the same metal is also extracted in a Russian mine in nepheline syenite, a magmatic rock.
Chromite deposits have long been reported and exploited in Northern Pakistan as a result of the ongoing convergence of Indian and Asian plates. This research work is a study of one such prospect. We used geophysical and geochemical tools such as magnetic susceptibility at seventy-seven observation stations along with fifteen rock samples collected for geochemical …
Metal ores contain sufficient minerals with important elements including metals that can be economically extracted from the rock. The ores must be processed to extract the metals of interest from the waste rock and from …
The latter are defined as rocks or minerals containing enough metal to be feasibly extracted. Metal ores are first obtained from the earth's crust through mining. Softer processes are then involved in the isolation and purification of the desired metal from the ores. ... Example: Chromite (Cr 2 FeO 4) ore is separated by this method.
