Study on Development and Application of Making Building Bricks by Using Tailings of Zhangmatun Iron Deposit

Through comprehensive analysis on the basic characteristics of the tailings of Zhangmatun iron deposit, experiments for brick making by using the tailings of Zhangmatun deposit are carried out.As showed by the results, by using pressing method,tailings of Zhangmatun iron deposit can be used to produce building bricks with the standard scale higher than MU10.These bricks have an uniformly distributed ashen color and good freezing resistivity. It is a good way to produce building bricks by using tailings of iron deposit with obvious economic benefits.
