INTRODUCTION TO MINING 1-1 Mining Terminology There are many terms and expressions unique to mining that characterize the field and identify the user of such terms as a ‘‘mining person.’’ The student of mining is thus advised to become familiar with all the terms used in mining, particularly those that are peculiar to either mines or
Lesson 5.1: Introduction to the Cycle of Operations The process of exploitation reduces to two fundamental operations: winning, i.e., freeing the ore from the orebody, although that term is rarely used in ordinary conversation; and materials handling, i.e., transporting the ore to the mineral processing plant. Winning and handling are repeated over and over again, i.e., they …

2 Iron Ore Mining There is a long and rich history of iron ore mining and processing. Prior to the industrial revolution, most iron was obtained from widely available goethite or bog ore. Prehistoric societies used laterite as a source of iron ore. Historically, much of the iron ore utilized by industrialized societies has been mined from predominantly hematite deposits with grades …
