Introduction. Economic iron ores (270 million metric tons of iron ore deposits) with an average of 47.6% Fe occur in the Bahariya Oasis (Said, 1990).The iron ores are exploited now as raw materials for the Egyptian Iron and Steel Company, Helwan, Egypt. Due to their geological and economic significance, such deposits have been subjected to …

El-Gedida iron ore deposit is considered to be the largest and richest iron ore deposit of the Bahariya Oasis located in the Western Desert of Egypt [7]. Iron deposits abound in the Bahariya oasis region and are mined at El-Gedida, where hematite occurs as a horizontal bed of considerable thickness as shown in Fig. 2. At El

Glauconite alteration releases K, Fe, silica and alumina. Iron forms at least part of the iron ore in the El-Gideda mine while alumina forms halloysite as well as …

A total of 80 oriented block samples were collected from 10 sites covering the three iron mining areas at Bahariya Oasis (El Gedida, Ghorabi and El Harra) within an area located between latitudes (28° 24` to 28° 29`N) and longitudes (29° 02` to 29° 11`E). Rock magnetic measurements reveal that, the main magnetic carrier is the haematite.

In Egypt, glauconite deposits have been reported from El-Gedida iron mine, El-Bahariya Oasis, in the Western Desert. These deposits belong to the Bartonian age and occur as a green sands cover overlying the Lutetian iron ore, of about 25 m thickness at …

The El Gedida Mine is owned by The Metallurgical Industries Co. Egypt: Five Largest Mines in 2021 - GlobalData Sukari Mine in Red Sea, was the largest mine in Egypt, producing approximately 13.13 million metric tons per annum (mmtpa) of Run-of-Mine (ROM) and primarily produced gold (415.37 thousand tonnes) in 2021.

The mining areas of this iron ore are Ghorabi (3.5 km 2 ), El Harra (2.9 km 2 ), and El Gedida (15 km 2 ) (Baioumy et al. 2014). The iron ore deposits at Bahariya Depression occupy one ...

Two strategies have been chosen for the exploitation of El-Gedida high-Mn iron ore containing 46.37 wt.% Fe and 7.53 wt.%Mn. The first one included magnetic roasting and subsequent low intensity magnetic separation. The second strategy involved a blend process of the El-Gedida high-Mn iron ore with the Um Bogma manganese ore. …

Several deposits of iron ores are located in Bahariya Oasis, Egypt, in El Harra, El Heiz, Ghorabi, El Gedida, and Nasser areas. Nakhla and Shehata (1967) classified these iron ores into four types; (i) pisolitic ores, (ii) hard goethitic ores, (iii) soft ores with relatively high Mn contents, and (iv) ochreous ore.
