Inside the finest fractions of aggregates, usually wasted by ready mix concrete companies, valuable heavy minerals content is substantial. The concentration and recovery of valuable heavy minerals contained in dredged fine aggregates waste, located in Pyeongtaek South Korea, were investigated to develop a process that can recover and concentrate most of each heavy mineral. The raw material contains ilmenite, magnetite, monazite, and zircon. A gravity separation, recirculating the middlings recovered ilmenite, magnetite, monazite, and zircon with 44.05%, 36.90%, 53.76%, and 69.7% respectively. Nevertheless, a magnetic separation followed by gravity separation of the non-magnetic fraction further improved the recovery of ilmenite, magnetite, monazite, and zircon to 86.96%, 85.09%, 91.06%, and 90.82% respectively. This concentrate was separated at different magnetic intensities. Magnetite was concentrated at 0.05 T, resulting in a recovery of 23.4% and grade of 95.1 wt%. Ilmenite was at 0.4 T, with a recovery of 55.2% and grade of 84.2 wt%. Monazite was at 0.9 T, with a recovery of 59.3% and rare earth oxide content of 45.2%, the non-magnetic fraction has a high zircon content, the recovery was 70.6% and grade of 91.8 wt%.

Titanium's importance as a mineral resource is increasing, but the Korean industry depends on imports. Ilmenite is the principal titanium ore. However, research and development from raw materials have not been investigated yet in detail. Hence, measures to secure a stable titanium supply chain are urgently needed. Accordingly, through beneficiation technology, we evaluated the possibility of technological application for the efficient recovery of valuable minerals. As a result of the experiments, we confirmed that mineral particles existed as fine particles due to weathering, making recovery through classification difficult. Consequently, applying beneficiation technologies, i.e., specific gravity separation, magnetic separation, and flotation, makes it possible to recover valuable minerals such as hematite and rutile. However, there are limitations in

본 연구는 비자성인 금홍석을 함유한 태백지역 면산층 타이타늄 광석으로부터 자력선별에 의해 산화티탄의 품위 및 실수율을 향상 시키는 목적으로 타이타늄 광석의 자화배소(Magnetizing roasting) 및 자화배소 산물의 자력선별 특성을 알아보았다. 왜냐하면 면산층 타이타늄 원광은 목적광물인 금홍석(TiO2)이 수반광물인 적철석(Fe2O3), 그리고 맥석광물인 석영(SiO2) 및 점토광물 등이 미세한 입자 로 혼합된 퇴적암이기 때문에 전통적인 선광방법으로는 산화티탄 성분의 품위 및 실수율을 향상시키는데 한계성이 있기 때문이다. 타이 타늄 광석에 환원제인 흑연을 10~30 % 범위로 혼합하여 900~1,100 °C의 온도범위에서 자화배소한 결과, 925~975 °C의 온도범위에서 타이타늄 광석 내 금홍석은 적철석과 상호반응하여 약자성체인 티타노마그네타이트(Titanomagnetite; Fe2TiO3와 Fe3O4의 고용체)와 상자성체인 티탄철석(ilmenite; FeTiO3)으로 변질되었고, 잉여의 적철석은 강자성체인 자철석(Magnetite; Fe3O4)로 환원되었다. 그러나
