Why is Iron ore processed at the mine site to upgrade it and remove unwanted impurities?

Iron ore is processed at the mine site to upgrade it and remove unwanted impurities to enhance its quality and increase its economic value. By concentrating the iron content and reducing the levels of impurities such as silica, phosphorus, and sulfur, the ore becomes more suitable for steel production. This processing minimizes transportation costs by allowing the shipment of a higher-quality product, ultimately improving the efficiency of steelmaking and reducing environmental impacts associated with processing lower-grade ore.
