DRI production. Direct reduction of iron is the removal of oxygen from iron ore or other iron bearing materials in the solid state, i.e. without melting, as in the blast furnace. The reducing agents are carbon monoxide and hydrogen, coming from reformed natural gas, syngas or coal. Iron ore is used mostly in pellet and/or lumpy form.

The iron ore production has significantly expanded in recent years, owing to increasing steel demands in developing countries. However, the content of iron in ore deposits has deteriorated and low-grade iron ore has been processed. The fines resulting from the concentration process must be agglomerated for use in iron and steelmaking. …

Iron ore mining is relatively simple compared to other minerals and metals that require underground tunnels and complex chemical-drive processes, like gold. Iron ore is generally sourced from open pits on the planet's surface and typically requires only crushing before it is ready for the smelter. Like most mining, It all starts with a bang.
