English abstract | The physical, chemical and typological characteristics of manganese lump ores from three Brazilian mines, Azul, Morro da Mina and Urucum are presented herein. The chemical analysis was done by AES-ICP and titration. The typological characterization was obtained by optical microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The physical properties studied included density, surface area and porosity. The Azul, Urucum and Morro da Mina Mn contents are, respectively, 47.68, 42.69 and 28.44%. The Urucum lump ore presents the highest structural density (4.29g/cm3), followed by Azul (3.98g/cm3) and by Morro da Mina (3.56g/cm3). The Urucum, Morro da Mina and Azul bulk porosities are 22.68, 10.79 and 29.40cm3/kg, respectively. The oretypological classifications are: anhydrous-oxide for Urucum, hydrated- oxide for Azul and silicate-carbonate for Morro da Mina. The thermogravimetric analysis showed that the ore weight losses could be associated to different phenomena, depending on the ore typology |
