Chromium is a chemical element with the symbol Cr and atomic number 24. It is the first element in group 6.It is a steely-grey, lustrous, hard, and brittle transition metal. Chromium is the main additive in stainless steel, to which it adds anti-corrosive properties.Chromium is also highly valued as a metal that is able to be highly polished while resisting tarnishing.
quantities of chromite with typically a chrome-to-iron (Cr/Fe) ratio of 1.35. UG2 ores can contain between 10 and 25% Cr2O3 depending upon the reef width and the selected mining method. It is relatively cheap and easy to extract a portion of the chromite from a platinum concentrator tailings stream at a grade of between 40–42% Cr2O3.

A method of producing sodium chromate from chromite ore, which involves mixing the ore with sodium carbonate and a refractory diluent, pelleting the mixture using an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium aluminate, sodium silicate, sodium chromate, or mixtures thereof; drying and roasting the pellets under oxidizing conditions, then disintegrating and extracting …
(a) From Table 1, the Ratio of Concentration can be calculated as F/C = 100/10 = 10. If only assays are available, the ratio of concentration equals (20 – 0.1)/(2.09 – 0.1) = 10 So, for each 10 tons of feed, the plant would produce 1 ton of concentrate. (b) Using the example data from Table 1, the % Cu recovery calculated from weights and ...
ECONOMIC MINERALSGOLD Gold mining and exploration in Zimbabwe has been going on from ancient times and it is estimated that a third (about 700 tonnes) of all historical gold production was mined locally from the seventh century until the introduction of mechanized mining methods with the arrival of Europeans about a century ago. There are over 4000 recorded god deposits, nearly all of them ...
Before applying all these methods of extraction of metals according to their reactivity, concentration of ores is done. Ores are found in nature with many impurities such as rock particles, sand and other impurities. These impurities in an ore are called matrix or gauge. The removal of matrix or gauge from the ore is called concentration ore.
Chromium. Chromium (Cr) is a hard, bluish metallic element. The only ore of chromium is the mineral chromite and 99 percent of the world's chromite is found in southern Africa and Zimbabwe. Geologists estimate that there are about 11 billion tons of mineable chromite ore in the world, enough to supply the current demand for hundreds of years.
Classification is a method of separation of fines from coarse particles and also lighter particles from heavier particles. The conventional classifiers, such as, hydrocyclone or mechanical classifiers, decreases the efficiency of the grinding and concentration circuits due to their imperfect separation. In the process of improving the efficiency of classification, a device that has been ...

Chrome Ore Concentration Methods. Chrome Ore Concentration Methods. The average abundance of cr in the earths crust is 122 ppm in soils cr ranges from 11 to 22 ppm in streams it averages about 1 gl, and in groundwaters it is generally 100 gl.Chromium is found chiefly in chrome-iron ore feo cr 2 o 3.Chromium is used in.
There are numerous methods of concentration and the methods are chosen based on the properties of the ore. Hydraulic Washing: This method concentrates the ore by passing it through an upward stream of water whereby all the lighter particles of gangue are separated from the heavier metal ore. This is a type of gravity separation. Magnetic ...
Ore is kept in a conveyer which passes through the magnetic roller. Fig. 2. Magnetic separation. Froth floatation process. This method is used to separate gangue from the sulphide ores. This process is used for sulfide ores of Cu, Pb and Zn. Suspension of powdered ore is prepared using water. To this suspension, collectors and froth stabilizers ...

Hexavalent chromium can be removed from water by a number of methods. A strong base anion exchange system will reduce both dichromate and chromate. The resin is regenerated with salt, however an occasional treatment of a combined salt and caustic solution will be required since a portion of the chrome will not be stripped from the resin.
Chrome ore contains too many impurities to be added directly into a steelmaking furnace. Prior to being consumed in steelmaking, chrome ore must be smelted in an electric furnace together with a carbon reductant, which eliminates most of the impurities in the ore and produces a product known as ferrochrome. Ferrochrome is an alloy containing 48 ...
The essence of the method is illustrated by illustrations, in which figure 1 is a given sequence of operations during execution of the method; figure 2 shows the concentration of iron in chromite ore deposits of Heaven-From the edge of chromite with the host rock (magnesium silicate) after heating up to 1000°and isothermal aging for 180 ...
Chromium compounds, in either the chromium (III) or chromium (VI) forms, are used for chrome plating, the manufacture of dyes and pigments, leather and wood preservation, and treatment of cooling tower water. Smaller amounts are used in drilling muds, textiles, and toner for copying machines. (1) Sources and Potential Exposure
