Iron Ore
Iron ore is the iron mineral aggregation with certain scale that is mainly used for steelmaking. The materials used for industrial steelmaking are oxides and carbonates of iron, including magnetite, ilmenite, vanadium titano-magnetite, specularite, hematite (including martite and goethite), limonite, and siderite.

Banded iron formations (BIF) are predominantly Precambrian sedimentary rocks composed of alternating layers of iron-rich minerals (commonly hematite and magnetite, but also siderite, chlorite, and grunerite) and silica-rich minerals (e.g., quartz or chert) in which the Fe content of the entire rock is at least 15 wt. %. Although typically thought of as strictly Fe …
