Iron ore mining in IndiaIndia is bestowed with large reserves of Iron Ore and it is the second-largest producer of Steel across the globe. India’s total iron ore production for the year CY19 was 231 million mt which enabled 90 per cent (111 million mt) of steel production. Hematite and Magnetite are the most prominent iron ores found in India of which Hematite is considered to be the most important iron ore because of its high-grade quality and lumpy nature which is consumed by a large number of steel and sponge iron industries in the country.  Orissa and KCCLOrissa is a significant contributor to India’s total Iron ore production. Orissa Mining Corporation (OMC), a state-owned entity, has awarded its Iron ore mining contract to Kalinga Commercial Corporation (KCCL) for its Gandamardhan Hilltop mine located at Keonjhar, which is 200 km from Bhubaneswar, the capital city of Orissa.KCCL uses the open-pit mining technique by developing benches from top to bottom to extract the ore. Run of Mines (ROM) excavation is done by drilling and blasting. More than 20 excavators having bucket capacity from the range of 2.1 cu m to 4 cu m are used for excavation, handling and loading of the ore, followed by approximately 140 mining and dumping trucks having a capacity from 19.5 cu m to 24 cu m to help transport the material from the mines to screening plants to get the output in required sizes.   Kleemann Mobile Screening Plants  Six Kleemann Mobile Screening plant is deployed on the Keonjhar site, since January 2020 to systematically screen the final output of the required sizes. Five of the mobile screens are of dou-ble-deck configuration (MS 952 EVO) with three outputs and one screen is of the triple-deck (MS 953 EVO) with four outputs. With the deployment of these six mobile screens, KCCL has con-tinuously met a daily production target of 30,000 mt by operating in two shifts. KCCL’s output requirement is 0-10 mm (fines) and 10-40 mm (lumps). Kleemann MS 952 with its two-deck design and large screening area of 9.5 sq m is able to effectively segregate the lumps and fines to meet its quality demand of the product.Dr SR Samal, Managing Director, Kalinga Commercial Corporation says, “We have been using Kleemann screen plants for more than two years. These screen plants have been good in per-formance and production. Over the years these have become an inseparable part of our operations.
