Iron ore pellets' contains two words with different meaning. The first one is 'Iron ore' and another is 'Pellet'. Let me tell you about the both: Iron ore- Today, steel is the most common metal used by man for construction of our building, bridges, aircraft, cars, bikes and everyday items. This steel is produced by 'iron ore'. Iron ore is dug out of the ground and processed to make steel. Pellet- Pellet is the raw form of steel by which iron is extracted and converted into steel. This pellet is made by iron ore by using pelletizing process. In the process of pelletizing the ore is crushed into a fine powder, mixed with water, making slurry. Clay is added to the slurry and the mixture shaped into pellets. This pellet is converted into steel. So the iron ore pellets are hard to find and also very costly.
