Chrome Ore Gravity Separation

Zimbabwe chromium ore gravity separation site

Chemical composition is (Mg, Fe)Cr204, between ferrous chromite (Fecr204, containing Feo32.09%, Cr203 67.91) and magnesium chromite (MgCr 204, containing Mg020.96%, Cr203 79.04%), usually some people will ferrous chromite and magnesium chromite are also called chromite.Chromite is equiaxial crystal system, crystal is small octahedron, usually granular and dense block aggregation, black color, stripe brown, semi-metallic luster, hardness 5.5, specific gravity 4.2~4.8, with weak magnetic.Chromite is a magmatic genetic mineral, produced in the ultrabasic rock, when the mineral-bearing rock is damaged by weathering, chromite often into placer.Chromite is the most important mineral raw material for smelting chromium, and the inferior ore rich in iron can be used as advanced refractory materials.
