During the mining, crushing, beneficiation and transportation of rich Mn ores, about 30% of the mined ores are converted into manganese ore fines with low Mn grade (Singh et al., 2011). In India, almost half of manganese ore resources are ferruginous in nature (Singh et al., 2011, Singh and Biswas, 2017).
The sintering process not only improves the quality of steel products, but also releases CO and CO 2 gases, evaporates moisture, and improves the reducibility of iron ore to ensure smooth operation of the blast furnace. These factors are related with variables such as temperature and flux, so optimization is essential.
iron ore is expected to rise by more than 200 million tonne per year to meet the internal demand export. This additional requirement of iron ore will need beneficiation of low grade ore/fines to get the major portion of increased demand. This paper deals in brief to use of available methodologies for beneficiation of iron ore in Indian context.

The multisegment threedimensional ore drawing model was used in the experiment. According to the similarity theory, the stope structure parameters, ore and rock particles, and the total amount of ore and rock at the time of mining were simulated. The model size was length × width × height = 800 mm × 140 mm × 1100 mm.
ore processing consists of crushing and grinding. For bulk material ( iron ore) once reconditioned, the product is stacked in stockyards and then it is transported to the port. For product types that come in various grades of quality, such as iron ore, an additional step known as product blending takes place before the product
Thus, the total specific energy for concentrating iron ore at the average ore grade (∼ 50% iron) from Thanatia (% iron) was considered as the sum of the energy for the orehandling process and the energy for concentration. In our model, the minerals for concentration are obtained from Earth's crust; surface mining is assumed.
Energy. Rock drilling, blasting, and comminution (crushing and grinding) consume a vast amount of energy in hard rock mines. As mentioned in Sect. 1, statistics from hard rock mines indicates that drilling and blasting consumes 2% and comminution does 53% of the total energy input in the whole production chain from mining to mineral processing (Spathis 2015), see Fig. 1.
