Iron Ore Uses
- Primary raw material for iron and steel manufacturing
- Used in blast furnaces to produce pig iron
- Applied in construction steel such as beams, rods, and structural sections
- Used in automotive, shipbuilding, and heavy machinery manufacturing
- Processed in state-of-the-art facilities with strict quality control at every stage
Iron Ore Pellets Uses
- Improves furnace productivity and energy efficiency
- Reduces dust and material losses during handling and transport
- Used in sponge iron (DRI) manufacturing
- Supports low-emission and modern steelmaking processes
