AMIS0568 Fe 46.36% V 7762pp Magnetite Bushveld South Africa
Origin of Material
The material originates from Vametco Mine. Vanadium mineralisation in the region occurs within titaniferous magnetite-rich layers within the Rustenburg Suite in the upper zone of the Bushveld Igneous Complex. The magnetite layers are typically concordant, continuous along strike and down-dip, but can vary considerably in thickness and grade (of magnetite, vanadium and titanium). Three main seams are present – the Upper, Intermediate and Lower.
Approximate Mineral and Chemical Composition
The US is a magnetite seam with ~38% magnetite and the remainder plagioclase feldspar (with possible minor pyroxene). The LS is a disseminated magnetite seam with an average of ~28% magnetite and the remainder plagioclase and minor pyroxene
