Crushed iron mine

Crushed iron mine

Khorrambid iron mine area with an area of ​​7 square kilometers is located in Fars province, Khorrambid city. This area is part of Bargon topographic map with a scale of 1: 25000 and Dehbid geology with a scale of 1: 100000. Khorrambid deposit is located in the northeastern part of the Zagros orogenic zone and includes various rock units from the Zagros and Sanandaj zones. These units are mostly misplaced and are facies different from their adjacent units. In this area, hematite and magnetite iron mineralization was seen in the form of veins and layers. In some parts, pyrolocyte mineralization is observed along with hematite. Due to the reactions of the supergene environment, mineralization at the surface is highly hydroxide in parts and is the predominant mineral of goethite. The host rock is the mineralization of Sparta lime. The average grade of Fe2O3 was 44% and the maximum was 7% of manganese oxide. The definitive reserve explored in this project is estimated at about 1/100/000 tons and the probable reserve at 2.300/000 tons.
