Six Reasons

Six Reasons to choose Kumba Iron Ore
- High Fe content of all products.
- Breaks down less during handling and transportation.
Benefit: customers receive a larger fraction of valuable lump ore.
- Creates less dust during handling and transportation.
Benefit: there is less ore loss and less impact on the environment.
- Has an excellent thermal shock resistance.
Benefit: less fines are formed in the top of the blast furnace and therefore less of these fine
particles is lost to the off-gas while the burden becomes more permeable.
- Breaks down less during reduction in the top part of the blast furnace.
Benefit: there is lower fines formation in the blast furnace, which increases permeability of
the burden and less coke is needed.
- Increased sinter plant productivity as a result of a coarser fine ore.
