Read More2010-4-28 Groote Eylandt (GE) ore is a high-grade ore with a manganese content of 55 wt.% (71 wt.% MnO). The diffraction pattern of this ore is shown in Fig. 3. The only phase identified in GE ore by XRD was MnO 2 (pyrolusite) (PDF-2 card No. 24-735). However, optical analysis and SEM revealed the complex mineralogical structure of the ore.

However, optical analysis and SEM revealed the complex mineralogical structure of the ore. Apart from pyrolusite, GE ore contained iron silicate and silica; pyrolusite grains were distinguished by the colour given by different impurities.
