Mining - Concentrator ArcelorMittal
In the processing stage, the mined material is transformed into usable raw material. For iron ore this involves crushing the ore and then concentrating it in different ways, for example by milling, flotation or magnetic separation. At some sites the ore is processed further and pelletised for use in direct reduced iron (DRI) steelmaking.

Iron Processing - FEECO International Inc.
Our heavy-duty iron ore balling drums are relied on by some of the industry’s top producers to process iron ore fines into pellets for the steelmaking process. The use of a disc pelletizer is a popular alternative approach to pelletizing iron ore fines, as this offers more control over pellet size and produces a more refined pellet product.
