“…Conventional methods for identification and mapping of variously enriched zones in iron ore deposits, for example, are based on geological and mineralogical studies considering variations in the proportions of magnetite, hematite, and apatite, such as in Kirunatype iron deposits (Cox and Singer, 1986;Hitzman et al, 1992;Shayestehfar et al, 2006). The Kiruna-type iron ores are generally dominated by iron oxides, either magnetite or hematite, which are known to occur in the Kiruna-Gällivare iron province in northern Sweden and in the Bafq-Saghand iron district in central Iran (Bonyadi et al, 2011;Cliff et al, 1990;Forsell and Godin, 1980;Frutos and Oyarzún, 1975;Shayestehfar et al, 2006). In this type of iron deposit, magnetite is found at deeper levels compared to hematite.…”
