Manganese is a chemical element with the symbol Mn and atomic number of 25. It is found as the free element in nature (often in combination with iron), and in many minerals. The free element is a metal with important industrial metal alloy uses. Manganese ions are variously colored, and are used industrially as pigments and as
Manganese ores are located in ore layers of 30-35 cm in the amount of 3-18 pieces and alternate with opoka (a type of carbonate-siliceous sedimentary rock [6]). Carbonate and oxidized layers are located in the upper part, and oxide ones in the lower part; in total, oxide ores – 26.5%, carbonate ores – 45.1%, oxidized – 15% and mixed ...
This reduces all of the manganese ore to manganese oxide (MnO), which is a leachable form. The ore then travels through a grinding circuit to reduce the particle size of the ore to between 150 and 250 μm, increasing the surface area to aid leaching. The ore is then added to a leach tank of sulfuric acid and ferrous iron (Fe 2+) in a 1.6:1 ratio.
MOIL (earlier known as Manganese Ore (India) Limited) is a miniratna government manganese ore mining company headquartered in Nagpur, India. With a market share of 50%, it is the largest producer of manganese ore in India. [2] MOIL operates 11 mines in adjoining districts of Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh.
Discovered in 1963, the Voskhod chromite deposit lies within the Khromtau District of the Aqtobe Region. Although surrounded by a group of existing mines, it had never been worked. The ore grade reportedly averages 48% Cr 2 O 3 with concentrate upgraded to 57% Cr 2 O 3. Production from Voskhod was expected to be 900,000 t/yr; production would ...
The lowest level of the ore zone is a 0.1 to 0.5 metres (3.9 in to 1 ft 7.7 in) layer of massive manganese oxides and hydroxides with some manganese carbonate (rhodochrosite). Above this is the main ore zone, a 3 to 9 metres (9.8 to 29.5 ft) layer of plates of similar minerals between bands of clay, silica and iron bearing material.
Rhodochrosite is mainly used as an ore of manganese, which is a key component of low-cost stainless steel formulations, many tool steels, and certain aluminium alloys. [9] Quality banded specimens are often used for decorative stones and jewellery.
