The Mesabi plant helps ensure supply chain security for DR grade pellets in the US while supporting the decarbonization of steel production.
In addition to flotation cells, Metso’s delivery involves slurry pumps, SC vacuum filters for the dewatering of iron concentrate, and low intensity magnetic separators (LIMS) for recovering magnetic material.
“The Concorde Cell flotation cells, a crucial component of the equipment delivery, are vital for ensuring flotation performance in Nashwauk’s iron ore application. These high-intensity flotation cells, part of the Metso Plus offering, allow operations to improve fine and ultrafine particle selectivity,” said Martin Nevens, director, Minerals Sales, North and Central America at Metso.
