The effects of microwave radiation on the magnetic properties of common ore minerals are discussed. The effects of varying microwave power levels on heating rates are presented along with comparative magnetic susceptibility surveys for both treated and non treated minerals. Various chemical and physical analysis techniques are considered to quantify any changes in mineral phases during heating. Conclusions are made as to the possible impact of microwave pretreatment on the downstream magnetic processing of minerals and ores.
