S + O2 → SO2­↑ 4As + 3O2 → 2As2O3­↑ FeCO3 decomposes as, FeCO3 → FeO + CO2­↑ Fe2O3.3H2O loses water Fe3O4 is decomposed to ferrous oxide and ferric oxides. Fe3O4 → FeO + Fe2O3 Ferrous oxide reacts with silica to forms ferrous silicate at high temperature. FeO + SiO2 → FeSiO3 But the conversion of FeO into Fe2O3 will prevent the formation of FeSiO3. Thus the mass of the ore becomes porous causing the increase in the effective
