Steel production transforms iron-bearing raw materials into high-value steel products through a series of integrated processes—sintering, pelletizing, blast-furnace smelting or direct-reduction, and secondary refining. Consistent raw-material quality, precise chemistry control and efficient fluxing are critical to maximizing throughput, minimize energy consumption and ensure final-steel properties (strength, ductility, purity).

We supply essential raw materials that support every stage of steelmaking. Iron ore is the core input for blast furnace and DRI-based steel production. Coal is used as a primary fuel and reducing agent in coke ovens and electric arc furnaces. Mill scale, a steelmaking by-product, is recycled into sinter plants to recover valuable iron content. Limestone acts as a flux to remove impurities during smelting and refining, improving slag formation. Bentonite is widely used as a binder in iron ore palletization, ensuring pellet strength and uniformity. Bauxite is used in refractory applications to line furnaces and withstand extreme operating temperatures.

Our minerals help improve productivity, reduce waste, and ensure quality in modern steelmaking.
