1 Introduction The reserves of iron ores deposits in east Aswan area were estimated between 120-135 million tones with average iron content of 46.8% (Attia, 1955). The iron- bearing minerals of the Aswan deposits are mainly hematite, chamosite, goethite, and other constituents like pyrite and siderite (Mücke, 2000).
percentage of iron combined with the absence of sulfur and a low phosphorus content sim-plifies the extraction of the iron from the ore. The proved reserves are I3.5 million tons, with probable reserves estimated at 300 million tons. The ore is on the surface, lowering mining costs. The proximity of these deposits to Aswan dam immediately ...
