8 Precision of moisture measurement

Gives a method for determining moisture content in consignment of iron ore. Applicable to all iron ores, whether natural or processed (for example concentrates and agglomerates such as pellets, sinters or briquettes). However, some limonites, sulfides, and certain ores containing a high content of combined water may give false results of moisture determination under the conditions specified.
