Abstract For improving the strength of pellets made of ultrafine and super-high-grade magnetite concentrates, the influence of basicity (CaO/SiO2 ratio) on the roasting and consolidation of pellets was investigated. The results showed that with the basicity of pellets increasing from 0.09 to 0.60, the compressive strength of both preheated and roasted pellets achieved an evident improvement from 502 and 2519 to 549 and 3096 N/pellet, respectively; meanwhile, the roasting time decreased from 15 to 9.min. The low-viscosity liquid phases were easily generated in fired pellets at the basicity range of 0.40–0.60 under the roasting temperature of 1240 °C, filled the voids between hematite particles and tightened the bonding among particles, effectively restraining the generation of concentric cracks and decreasing the porosity of fired pellets; low-viscosity liquid phases facilitated the solid diffusion of hematite, leading to the formation of coarse hematite crystals and thicker connecting necks.
