The impact of mining on socio-economic environment is positive (infrastructure development and employment opportunity). There would be a significant impact on biological environment. A green belt with dust-tolerant trees needs to be developed around the Iron ore digging and material storage yard to an extent of 30% of mine-lease area.

ContactWe’re currently supporting a customer in Australia with one of the most technologically advanced iron ore mines ever built. It’s through digital technology we can help predictively maintain an asset, solve bottlenecking issues and better understand the influence of renewable energy sources. Plus, we can tinker without the consequences.
ContactIron ore is subjected to several processing stages to increase the iron content and reduce the amount of mineral impurities, depending on its end use. Ore processing is affected by the type of deposit and profit requirements. High-grade ores are treated to obtain a homogenous product, remove fines and reduce impurities.
ContactThus, Iron ore has been mined for the past three thousand years by ancient and modern mankind. However, mining of iron ore has copious negative impacts on the environment. It degrades natural landscapes, surface and ground water quality, flora and fauna, as well as the ambient air quality within the mining area and its environs.
ContactMining and metal processing can be very energy-intensive processes. For instance, diesel fuel is used by trucks and excavators during mining, electricity is used to grind ore and refine copper and aluminum, and coal is required in order to smelt iron ore and make steel. [1]
ContactMay 27, 2020Ore dust and gases released by the mining process are bad for the health of miners as well as the environment. Over time, exposure to the dust created by mining operations can lead to disease and buildup of scar tissue in the lungs.
ContactMining is an inherently invasive process that can cause damage to a landscape in an area much larger than the mining site itself. The effects of this damage can continue years after a mine has shut down, including the addition to greenhouse gasses, death of flora and fauna, and erosion of land and habitat.

ContactHowever, mining of iron ore has copious negative impacts on the environment. As the mining method for Iron is usually open cast, it degrades natural landscapes, surface and ground water, flora and fauna, as well as the ambient air quality within the mining area and its environs. Water quality is contaminated due to surface runoff and leachate
ContactThey also cause noise and surface water pollution, not to mention their effects on the soil and vegetation. Corrosion is another issue observed in iron ore mining; corroded iron ore and pipes at mining sites affect the environment particularly ground water quality. Therefore, there is a need to take mitigating measures.

ContactIron is concentrated by the process of calcinations. Once it is concentrated, the water and other volatile impurities such as sulfur and carbonates are removed. This concentrated ore is then mixed with limestone (CaCO 3) and Coke and fed into the blast furnace from the top. It is in the blast furnace that extraction of iron occurs.

ContactIron ore is the source of primary iron for the world's iron and steel industries. It is therefore essential for the production of steel, which in turn is essential to maintain a strong industrial base. Almost all (98%) iron ore is used in steelmaking. Iron ore is mined in about 50 countries. The seven largest of these producing countries
