We produce Iron ore on demand for our customers, according to the glanulometric requirements required for their process, whether in the blast furnaces of steel mills or cement industries. Among the materials available in our stock, we have sinter feed (0 to 6mm, 3 to 6.3mm and 0 to 3mm), hematite (6.3 to 19mm) and lump ore (6.3 to 32mm and 19 to 32mm).
Using magnetic separation processes and simultaneous monitoring via internal and external quality laboratories, We also meet the customer's chemical demands, according to the binary and quaternary basicity required in their steelmaking process.
We also control the metallurgical properties of our ore, carrying out analyzes in an external laboratory (Fundação Gorceix)
