This is accomplished by the method of pyrometallurgy, a high temperature process. The high temperatures are needed for the reduction of iron and the oxidation of the limestone which will be seen below. Introduction. The production of iron from its ore involves a redox reaction carried out in a blast furnace. The furnace is filled at the top ...

Limestone, mica and gypsum are examples of such minerals. Mineral fuels like coal and petroleum are also non-metallic minerals. Minerals can be extracted by mining, drilling or quarrying. Mining is the process of extracting minerals from rocks buried under the earth's surface. Meanwhile, in open-case mining, minerals that lie at shallow ...

The primary methods used to extract minerals from the ground are: Underground mining. Surface (open pit) mining. Placer mining. The location and shape of the deposit, strength of the rock, ore grade, mining costs, and current market price of the commodity are some of the determining factors for selecting which mining method to use.

Limestone in powdered form is also used as a substance to absorb pollutants or control coal mine dust at many coal-mining facilities. Lime which is the byproduct of limestone is used to neutralise acids and treat wastewater, industrial sludge, animal waste, and water supplies. These are some popular uses of limestone.

Limestone is found near the surface (called a surficial deposit); hence, it is produced mainly from surface mines.By and large, limestone is mined by two methods: opencast stripping for hilly deposits and open-pit mining for plain deposits. To meet the industrial requirements of a large country like India, medium- and small-sized mines of …

The blast furnace uses coke, iron ore and limestone to produce pig iron. Coal traditionally has been a key part of the coke-making process. The coal is crushed and ground into a powder and then charged into an oven where it is heated to approximately 1800°F in the absence of oxygen. As the oven is heated, the coal begins to melt so most of the ...

Production. Lime is made from indigenous limestone or chalk rock, one of the most abundant materials in the Earth's crust. Limestone and chalk are both sedimentary rocks and are chemically known as calcium carbonate. When crushed or ground, they are widely used as aggregates and building products. As a raw material, calcium carbonate can also ...

11.17.1 Process Description 1-5 Lime is the high-temperature product of the calcination of limestone. Although limestone deposits are found in every state, only a small portion is pure enough for industrial lime manufacturing. To be classified as limestone, the rock must contain at least 50 percent calcium carbonate. When the rock contains
