Razorback high-grade iron-ore concentrate project, Australia – update
Name of the Project
Razorback high-grade iron-ore concentrate project.
Location
In the western portion of the Braemar, South Australia.
Project Owner/s
ASX-listed Magnetite Mines.
Project Description
The project comprises three main orebodies. Razorback is the primary deposit followed by Iron Peak and Ironback Hill.
Together, these deposits constitute 3.92-billion tonnes of Joint Ore Reserves Committee 2012 inferred to indicated resources.
A scoping study on Razorback has determined that a small-scale, staged operation producing high-grade concentrate from a lower capital operation is preferable, retaining potential for future expansion.
The study shows that a significant portion of the resource would potentially be economic to mine at shallow depths of 0 m to 100 m using drill-and-blast, and truck-and-shovel openpit mining methods.
The processing plant includes primary and secondary crushing, grinding by high-pressure grinding rolls, air separation, rougher magnetic separation, ball milling, low-intensity magnetic separation and hydroseparation to produce final concentrate.
