The problem of enrichment of aluminum ores is due to the fact that bauxite-forming minerals have similar density, dispersed character and subtle intergrowth. Therefore, the development and improvement of methods for the enrichment and processing of bauxite continue. The work shows the effect of physical and chemical factors on iron minerals with the goal of transforming them into magnetite, to increase the magnetic phase. Influence of various kinds of energetic influences on bauxite raw materials and red mud is established, under which the magnetic properties and phase composition change, the concentrations of certain minerals change.
