    • @Krommandant
      @Krommandant 7 років тому +2

      Because all the environmental process is mostly PR. The public consultations are often held without proper announcements, the debates are under wrap, and the land reclamation at the end of the life of the mine is never done since mines close only when they are bankrupt. So sad, but that's business as usual. The government and localities have to manage all these sites, so people end up paying for it.

      Mauritania has huge reserves of Iron ore, as big -literally- as mountains. The ore, consisting of hematite and magnetite is quarried, ground up and separated magnetically into the two components, loaded on the longest scheduled train in the world, 3 miles long with 3 locomotives, for transport to the coastal port at Nouadhibou, for shipment abroad to smelters, the train journey taking 19 hours. There is also a gold mine in Mauritania, and lots of gold prospecting, but gold is found in other African countries too.

    • @ikanacanyon
      @ikanacanyon 2 роки тому +2

      Years late, but miners would dig iron rich ore out by hand. They'd crush it by hand, and then use furnaces to melt the iron, copper, silver, gold, or whatever and separate it from the rock. They couldn't get as pure of metal as we can, but it worked for their purposes. Everything in the video is basically just a much more efficient way of the same result.

    • @RolfeK
      @RolfeK 3 роки тому +5

      The pellets are dumped into blast furnaces. Everything melts. The molten iron is more dense (heavier) than the impurities. The molten ore is tapped at the very bottom of the furnace. The slag (impurities) is then removed.

    So the end result are iron ore pellets that only contain 65% iron? Then these have to be transported to a steel refinery. Doesn't that mean that 35% of the pellet is wasted?

    • @presidentima4921
      @presidentima4921 3 роки тому +2

      Hi Leif,
      Thanks for the question. No, 35% of the pellet is other materials that help to make different types of steel. These additions include bentonite, limestone and other minerals to ensure the "purity" of the steel once it is made in the steelmaking process. Hope that's helpful.

    Well this is a good presentation. However! When first discovered this “Red Gold” made tracks and locomotives and buildings and girders! The Mesabi range was the richest iron ore deposits ever! They use to use just shovels...soft red sand...of pure red gold! By the ton...it was very profitable but the short summer made the need for the most well thought out mining town to date! History! Know your History!

    • @hobomike6935
      @hobomike6935 2 роки тому +1

      There are areas in Australia and the "Old World" continental mass that have far more iron ore deposits than in either of the Americas. Australia has *the* highest concentration of Iron ore by far across most of the landmass.
      However, both of the Americas are much richer in other types of metal, such as Silver (the influx of Silver from the Americas after the 1500s was so large that it's value dropped and damaged Spain's economy) Copper, and Lithium (which are both extremely valuable for electronics and batteries, both in high demand today.)
      The United States in particular has more of an "ample mixture" of most metals, rather than just a massive amount of 1 or 2 types.
      Adding a very advanced technological understanding of how to efficiently extract ores and get almost all the metal out, meaning it can produce as much metal as it deems necessary for whatever projects it needs, this has historically been instrumental in the United States having a huge advantage over other countries.

    John D Rockefeller purchased the Land for the original Taconite mines and then re-sold it to Andrew Carnegie for a huge markup around the turn of the 20th century. The ore was originally thought to be sub-par so the land was cheap, but they came up for this process to purify the magnetite and separate out the tailings. Rockefeller knew Carnegie needed the taconite for his Steel Plants along the Great Lakes region. Genius business move and a bit of history for you on this day.

    selamlar.size çok ilginç bir bilgi vermek isterim.demir hammaddesinin dünya dışı gezegenlerden dünyaya geldiğini biliyormusunuz.üstelik kuran da(müslümanların kutsal kitabında)bunun çok açık bir şekilde açıklandığını ve demir suresi yani bölümü olduğunu ve orada demirin dünyaya indirildiğinin söylendiğini biliyormuydunuz.1400 yıl önce söylenmesi bu kitabın tıpkı incil tevrat gibi Allah tarafından gönderildiğini islamın hak gerçek olduğunun bir delili sayıldığını biliyormuydunuz.
