V.I.U (Value in Use) Assessment \u2013 Technical pricing of manganese ore.<\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div>![](\"https:\/\/solucoesemferroligas.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Avaliacao-de-V.I.U-Value-in-Use-SSantos-Consultoria-4.webp\" "\\"Avalia\u00e7\u00e3o")
<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>International quotation.<\/h4><\/div>Manganese ore<\/p>\n<\/div>
It is based on the price per point of Mn, given in USD\/dmtu (dry metric tonne unit), published by reference companies such as CRU, Metal Bulletin, Roskill, and Tex Report.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
This reference price considers a benchmark ore with 44% Mn content. Ores with Mn content above 44% receive premiums; below that, they suffer commercial demerits.<\/p>\n
However, ores with the same Mn content can have significantly different prices. The reason lies in the levels of other constituents: Fe, SiO\u2082, Al\u2082O\u2083, CaO, MgO, P, and other elements in smaller quantities.<\/p>\n
The relationships between Mn content and these constituents form the so-called Ore Competitiveness Factors, which determine the real commercial price. Among the main chemical ratios evaluated are:<\/p>\n<\/div>
- <\/i><\/span>\n
Mn\/Fe \u2013 directly influences furnace reduction efficiency<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>
- <\/i><\/span>\n
Mn\/SiO\u2082 \u2013 impacts flux consumption and slag basicity<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>
- <\/i><\/span>\n
Mn\/Al\u2082O\u2083 \u2013 affects slag viscosity and operational stability<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>
- <\/i><\/span>\n
Mn\/CaO, Mn\/MgO \u2013 related to burden fluidity and melting point<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li><\/ul>
In addition to chemical ratios, physical characteristics such as moisture, mechanical strength, percentage of fines, and particle size also make up the ore's Value in Use.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
