The elemental composition of the ore was carried out using the inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrophotometer (ICP-OES).

It was determined that the dissolution rate increased with increased solution concentration, temperature, time and decreased particle size of the ore. The optimum conditions for effective dissolution of 88% of the iron ore were found to be 8 Mof the solution, 353 K, 100 min and ore particle size of less than 75 μm.
