AbstractThe oxidation of magnetite in the roasting of iron!ore pellets is considered, with particular atten!
tion to the influence of various technological factors on the process. Laboratory data are used in optimizing
the design and operational parameters of individual zones in conveyer roasting machines for the heat treat!
ment of magnetite pellets.

CONCLUSIONS
By mineralogical, chemical, and phasechemical
analysis, we have studied the oxidation of iron!ore pel!
lets produced from Sokolovsko!Sarbaisk concentrate.
We have investigated the temperature conditions of
structure formation and the bonds between the miner!
als in the pellets. The oxidation of magnetite was con!
sidered for different heat!treatment conditions. The
dynamics of magnetite oxidation, hematite dissocia!
tion, mineral formation, and strength development in
the pellets was studied as a function of the temperature
and treatment time. The results permit optimization
