Ores in which one of the components(either the impurity or the actual ore) is magnetic can be concentrated, e.g., ores containing iron (haematite, magnetite, siderite and iron pyrites).

Ores like Haematite, Magnetite and Iron Pyrites can be concentrated by the magnetic separation method.

Explanation:

  • The ores are "paramagnetic", to get a fine ore of hematite by magnetic separation.
  • This will "decrease with decreasing particle size" because the magnetic susceptibility of magnetic particles "decreases with a decrease in particle mass".
  • The process of magnetic separation is a straight forward one. The ore which is finely ground and crushed is placed on a constantly moving roller.
  • This roller is magnetic in nature. Now when the finely ground ore reaches the end of the roller it is met with two baskets which are situated at a distance from each other.
  • The unwanted particles in the ore which aren’t magnetic fall into the basket which is further ahead of the roller.
  • The ore particles which are needed and are magnetic in nature stick to the roller for a longer time and when they are turned upside down beneath the roller, the fell into the basket placed for accumulating the wanted ore particles.
  • This process is repeated until all the ore particles are extracted. This is done for a variety of ores which are given above.
