Believing in consistent growth with undying dedication, Rachana Global Excavation Ltd. is a dedicated mining and exploration services provider across the globe. It leverages its mining expertise to provide the best iron ore mining services and services for titanium mining. All the following iron ore mining and titanium mining terminology can be best associated with the name of the mining leader, Rachana Global.

Iron Ore: Rocks or deposits containing compounds from which iron can be made are called iron ores.

Metallurgy - The study or process of extracting metals from their ores is called Metallurgy.

Iron ore extraction: The process of mining and removal of iron ore from the iron ore mines is called as iron ore extraction.

Iron ore exploration: The process of searching for iron ore deposits and establishing their extent of existence is known as iron ore exploration.

Iron ore mining: The mechanical process of extracting iron from its ores is known as iron ore mining.

Iron ore mining activities: The iron ore mining activities are the activities that are employed for mining iron ore from the iron deposits found in the earth.

Iron ore concentration: Process of separating pure and valuable iron and waste materials from the mined iron ore is known as iron ore concentration.

Lumpy/Fine Ore: Iron Ore is traded in lumps or sized ore or in fines. Production/availability of lumps is limited by virtue of the natural occurrence and also because of generation of lot of fines during crushing of large lumps present in the run-of-mines.

Blue Dust: Blue Dust is the name given to naturally occurring, extremely friable, high grade Haematite Iron Ore powder.

Iron Ore Beneficiation: Very low grade Iron ore cannot be used in metallurgical plants and needs to be upgraded to increase the iron content and reduce the Gauge content. Process adopted to upgrade ore is called Iron Ore Beneficiation.

Agglomeration of Iron Ore: Iron Ore Fines or blue dust cannot be charged in the blast furnace directly since they block the passage for ascending gas inside the fee. So, they are agglomerated into larger lumpy pieces with/without addition of additives like limestone, dolomite etc. Agglomeration is done by igniting at lower temperature causing only interfacial fusion. this is more informationhttp://www.rachanaglobal.com
