In the iron ore pellets, iron oxide completely reduced at 850 °C and 700 °C to metallic iron with some silica peak was observed. In the BR and self-hardened BR-CaO pellets reduced at 850 °C, majority of all iron oxide is reduced. However, at 700 °C, it was converted to a mixture of metallic iron, magnetite and minor brownmillerite.

Iron (Fe) is a metallic element that constitutes 5.6% by weight of the Earth's crust and is the fourth most abundant element in the crust. Iron ores are rocks from which metallic iron can be economically extracted. The principal iron ores contain hematite (Fe 2 O 3) and magnetite (Fe 3 O 4 ). Hematite is an iron oxide mineral.
