Athena Resources (ASX:AHN) produced a 10-kilogram product sample of high-grade magnetite concentrate, grading 70.55% iron, from ore from the Byro magnetite project in Western Australia, according to a Thursday Australian bourse filing.
The processing to achieve the high-grade concentrate product sample involved standard crushing, grinding, and low-intensity magnetic separation.
The new product sample will now be tested for green iron applications, including suitability for pelletizing potential and direct reduced iron production.
