Industry:Mining
A ladle for the transfer of molten iron from a blast furnace to a mixer furnace and from there to a steel furnace; alternatively, the ladle may transfer molten pig iron direct from blast furnace to steel furnace. Such ladles are generally lined with fire clay refractories, but for severe conditions high-alumina and basic refractories have been tried with some success.
Industry:Mining
A lagging consisting of galvanized steel wire frames fastened to underground haulageway supports by special wire fasteners to provide a continuous lining.
Industry:Mining
A laminated, metamorphosed oxide-facies iron formation in which (1) the original chert or jasper bands have been recrystallized into megascopically distinguishable grains of quartz and (2) the iron is present as thin layers of hematite, magnetite, or martite (Dorr & Barbosa, 1963). The term was originally applied in Itabira, Brazil, to a high-grade, massive specular-hematite ore (66% iron) associated with a schistose rock composed of granular quartz and scaly hematite. The term is now widely used outside Brazil. Compare: jacutinga; canga.
