Abstract

Sinter plants in the region of Central & Eastern Europe are typical for the processing of iron ores with high SiO₂ content, which leads to an unusual high silica ratio in the sinters compared to the rest of the world. This study describes the scenario in sinter plants in Central & Eastern Europe and analyzes some iron ores exploited in Russia and Ukraine using the XRF and light microscope analytical methods.
