The carbothermic reduction of chromite ore to produce high carbon ferrochromium is among the most energy intensive metal extraction processes performed, due not only to the highly endothermic nature of the reduction reactions but also the very high operating temperatures required for the smelting operation to separate the chrome-containing alloy from the discard slag.

The chromite ore industry, however, has not seen the same gains as many producers operate at a loss given the higher costs to bring material to market (i.e. to China). End-July chromite prices for primary chromium ores in South Africa are up only 20% compared to end-November 2020, versus the 70% gain for ferrochrome.

Chromite ore is mainly produced in the state of Orissa, with a large portion of chromite production consumed by local ferrochrome makers. Turkey. Turkey is emerging as one of the major suppliers of chromite to China's ferrochrome markets. Adverse winter conditions allow mining of chromite to be conducted only from May to end of November.

Abstract – The dissolution and reduction of a natural chromite ore in molten ferrochromium slag was studied. The chemical composition (by mass) of the chromite ore was: 46.6% Cr2O3, 8.3% Fe2O3, 18.0% FeO, 10.3% MgO, and 14.1% Al2O3. The slag samples were

Ferrochromium production is an electrical-energy intensive process that requires chromite ore, fluxes (quartzite), and carbon (e.g., coal, coke, charcoal). Ferrochromium production, like chromite ore production, is geographically concentrated in the Eastern hemisphere; however, it is more geographically distributed than is chromite ore production.

Ferrochromium is manufactured by the reduction of the ore. In 2007, the world production of chromite was 20 million tons (U.S. Geological Survey 2008). The world resources of chromite are greater than 12 billion tons, and this is, according to the U.S. Geological Survey governmental agency, "sufficient to meet conceivable demand for centuries."
