Description

Khyber Minerals Swat (KMS) supplies premium hematite, a versatile iron oxide mineral, in two specialized forms:
1. Micaceous Hematite
Structure: Flaky, layered texture (mica-like) for enhanced adhesion and coverage.
Composition: 90%+ Fe₂O₃ purity, low impurities (<2% SiO₂/Al₂O₃).
Applications:
Anti-Corrosion Coatings: Bonds tightly to metal surfaces for rust prevention.
Pigments: Earthy red-brown tones for paints, ceramics, and construction materials.
Abrasives: Durable grit for eco-friendly blasting and polishing.
2. Red Oxide Hematite
Color: Vibrant red pigment with excellent UV resistance.
Grades: Available in coarse (20–180 mesh) to superfine (600 mesh) particles.
Uses:
Steel Production: High iron content for efficient smelting.
Construction: Colored concrete, tiles, and terracotta products.
Industrial Filters: Heavy-density additive for drilling fluids.

Features

Acts as a superior weighting agent in drilling fluids, increasing mud density to stabilize wellbores and prevent blowouts.

Chemically inert, non-reactive with drilling fluids, and resistant to acidic/corrosive downhole environments.

• High Density (4. 9–5. 3 g/cm³):
• Iron Oxide (Fe₂O₃) Rich (90%+ Purity):
