Reduction kinetics of titanomagnetite concentrate briquettes produced from Rossetta-llmenite ore via 1.5 liter/min hydrogen flow rate were investigated at different temperatures ranging from 600¡æ to 950¡æ. It was found that the best reduction properties were found at 950¡æ, so the kinetic models shown by the briquettes at this temperature maybe: Diffusion control or Diffusion through ash layer (crank-cinslling-Broushten equation). And the apparent activation energy calculated for these models was 33.223 and 30.389 kJ/mole respectively. Also the main crystalline phases of reduced briquettes at 950¡æ were metallic iron (syn. Fe), rutile (syn. TiO2) and some traces of magnetite (Fe3O4).
