The pyrochlore ore is mined, beneficiated and the undergoes carbothermic reduction to produce a refined pyrochlore concentrate. This concentrate serves as input for the aluminothermic reduction that produces Ferroniobium (66% Nb) the most principal product of the niobium production chain. The Reference Product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is market activity.
