Review of the current state of enrichment of ferric quartzites in Russia, CIS countries and abroad. Difficulties encountered in processing such ores. The analysis of the existing methods to improve the efficiency of enrichment of ferrous quartzites in order to obtain better products, including magnetite concentrates for metallization. Conclusions are drawn about the prospects for the use of energy, including electrochemical effects to increase the efficiency of enrichment of ferrous quartzite. The results of studies on the possibility of applying electrochemical technology of water treatment and treatment of cationic reagents-gatherers to improve the efficiency of flotation enrichment of draft magnetite concentrates. are presented.
