      I read somewhere that although tailings as some mines are left behind at mines, which I have seen at mines in Arizona and New Mexico, it may come to pass that the price of elements in the tailings goes so high that it becomes economically feasible to go back to those waste piles and get it out.
      But as you mentioned, tailings can be useful right away in some circumstances.

      The pellets are dumped into blast furnaces. Everything melts. The molten iron is more dense (heavier) than the impurities. The molten ore is tapped at the very bottom of the furnace. The slag (impurities) is then removed.

    • @Krommandant
      @Krommandant 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Because all the environmental process is mostly PR. The public consultations are often held without proper announcements, the debates are under wrap, and the land reclamation at the end of the life of the mine is never done since mines close only when they are bankrupt. So sad, but that's business as usual. The government and localities have to manage all these sites, so people end up paying for it.

    John D Rockefeller purchased the Land for the original Taconite mines and then re-sold it to Andrew Carnegie for a huge markup around the turn of the 20th century. The ore was originally thought to be sub-par so the land was cheap, but they came up for this process to purify the magnetite and separate out the tailings. Rockefeller knew Carnegie needed the taconite for his Steel Plants along the Great Lakes region. Genius business move and a bit of history for you on this day.

      @ikanacanyon 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Years late, but miners would dig iron rich ore out by hand. They'd crush it by hand, and then use furnaces to melt the iron, copper, silver, gold, or whatever and separate it from the rock. They couldn't get as pure of metal as we can, but it worked for their purposes. Everything in the video is basically just a much more efficient way of the same result.

They use to use just shovels...soft red sand...of pure red gold! By the ton...it was very profitable but the short summer made the need for the most well thought out mining town to date! History! Know your History!

    • @hobomike6935
      @hobomike6935 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      There are areas in Australia and the "Old World" continental mass that have far more iron ore deposits than in either of the Americas. Australia has *the* highest concentration of Iron ore by far across most of the landmass.
      However, both of the Americas are much richer in other types of metal, such as Silver (the influx of Silver from the Americas after the 1500s was so large that it's value dropped and damaged Spain's economy) Copper, and Lithium (which are both extremely valuable for electronics and batteries, both in high demand today.)
      The United States in particular has more of an "ample mixture" of most metals, rather than just a massive amount of 1 or 2 types.
      Adding a very advanced technological understanding of how to efficiently extract ores and get almost all the metal out, meaning it can produce as much metal as it deems necessary for whatever projects it needs, this has historically been instrumental in the United States having a huge advantage over other countries.

      @presidentima4921 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Hi Leif,
      Thanks for the question. No, 35% of the pellet is other materials that help to make different types of steel. These additions include bentonite, limestone and other minerals to ensure the "purity" of the steel once it is made in the steelmaking process. Hope that's helpful.
