vanadium processing, preparation of the metal for use in various products.. Vanadium (V) is a grayish silver metal whose crystal structure is a body-centred cubic (bcc) lattice, with a melting point of 1,926° C (3,499° F). The metal is used principally as an alloying addition to high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steels and, to a lesser extent, in tool steels and iron and …
Titaniferous magnetite hard rock deposits are common throughout the world. Previously they have been processed to recover vanadium using the standard salt roast process, however the economics based on vanadium alone can be marginal due to the high CAPEX and OPEX, making it vulnerable in a volatile vanadium market. New Zealand Steel and …

Vanadiferous (titano)magnetite (VTM) deposits in South Africa are the principal vanadium source of the African continent and one of the most significant in the world (Kelley et al., 2017). The VTM deposits consist of magmatic accumulations of (titano)magnetite and ilmenite, which could host more than 1.5 wt% V 2 O 5 ( Reynolds, …
Vanadium Resources is a junior vanadium developer who owns 74% of the world class, tier 1, Steelpoortdrift Vanadium licensed mining project in Limpopo Province, South Africa. The Steelpoortdrift titaniferous magnetite deposit is located in the prolific Bushveld Geological Complex within a known mineral and vanadium producing area …
Titaniferous magnetite (titanomagnetite) is nominally defined as magnetite deposits containing more than one mass percent of titanium dioxide (TiO2). Titanomagnetite deposits are known for being difficult to process; this is primarily due to the complex nature of the mineral compounds that make up the ore. The complex mineralisation means …
Iron ore magnetite processing (LIMS, MIMS, WHIMS, Davis Tubes) The increased worldwide demand for steel in recent decades has led to an increase in the exploitation of magnetite iron ore deposits as an alternative to hematite DSO ores. Magnetite concentrate is a higher-grade product than hematite and very desirable as a smelter feed.
