This research work was aimed towards the geotechnical characterization of samples from iron ore rejects coming from flotation and magnetic separation processes, together with the addition of LD steel slag, in order to use these materials as components for base of paved roads. In order to reach such goal, this research work was also concentrated in studying techniques for the utilization of such materials considered as rejects of the iron ore industry, considering the use of mixtures from flotation and magnetic separation rejects combined with LD steel slag and local granular soils, in order to reduce environmental effects caused by conventional methods of storage of these rejects in tailing dams and pile rejects, generally disposed at the mine environment.The findings of the experimental program carried out through this research were based on the following geotechnical testes: characterization; compaction and CBR performed at normal, intermediary and modified compaction efforts; triaxial drained tests; resilient modulus tests; and sand equivalent test. Test results from granulometric stabilization techniques as well as those obtained from CBR and expansion tests, showed that the studied iron ore rejects are suitable for being used as subbase layers of flexible pavements, according to the "Design method of flexible pavements" from DNIT. Also, the laboratory testing program consisted of performing repeated load triaxial resilient modulus tests for these rejects and their mixtures. The best constitutive relationship was the one relating the resilient modulus and the bulk stress, M R = K 1θ K 2 . Finally, laboratory test results showed that these rejects and their mixtures are potentially suitable for application in pavement structures.
