Global Mining Review,
Mesabi Metallics has awarded Metso an order for beneficiation plant equipment for their direct-reduction (DR) grade iron ore plant in Nashwauk, Minnesota.
The Mesabi plant helps ensure supply chain security for DR grade pellets in the US while supporting the decarbonisation of steel production.
Martin Nevens, Director, Minerals Sales, North and Central America at Metso, comments:
“The Concorde CellTM flotation cells, a crucial component of the equipment delivery, are vital for ensuring flotation performance in Nashwauk’s iron ore application. These high-intensity flotation cells, part of the Metso Plus offering, allow operations to improve fine and ultrafine particle selectivity.”
In addition to the flotation cells, Metso’s delivery includes slurry pumps, industry-leading SC vacuum filters for the dewatering of iron concentrate, and low intensity magnetic separators (LIMS) for recovering magnetic material.
The order value is approximately €10 million and it is booked in the Minerals segment’s 4Q24 orders received.
