Magnetite Project
Mosaic Fertilizers
ABOUT IT
The project was developed to avoid the disposal of magnetite as tailings in dams in the cities of Cajatí-SP and Tapura-MG.
The method developed by the company allowed the magnetite to be removed in the low-field magnetic separation stage, which made it possible to make better use of the phosphate rock and prevented the magnetite from being discarded as tailings for dams.
With the innovation, it is even possible to treat the separated magnetite so that it can be sold to steel industries, such as iron ore and cement companies, to be used in the manufacture of concrete and mortar
Results and Objectives
The volume reused was 1.8 Mtonadding value to the company, since
the product is marketed instead of being disposed of as tailings in dams.
