Ultra-fine iron ore tailings were modified through thermal activation, and then together with some waste rock were taken for mixed calcination. With the mass ratio of iron ore tailings to waste rock, calcination temperature and calcination time as variables, and the compressive strength of specimens and the content of chemically bound water as the objectives for optimization, an orthogonal experiment was carried out to analyze the sensitivity and influence trends of each factor on the target values, and the hydration products of the cemented materials were also analyzed. The results indicate that with an increase in the mass of waste rock, the specimen compressive strength initially increases and then decreases. As the calcination temperature rises, the specimen compressive strength monotonically decreases. As calcination time is prolonged, the specimen compressive strength first decreases and then increases. In consideration of both calcination cost and material performance, an optimal calcination scheme is finally determined, including iron ore tailings and waste rock in a mass ratio of 7∶3, a calcination temperature of 800 ℃, and a calcination time of 2 h. Under these conditions, the 3-day, 7-day and 28-day compressive strengths of the specimens can reach 4.18, 6.36 and 9.87 MPa, respectively. The main hydration products of the cemented materials are calcium silicate hydrate gel, rankinite, ettringite and hydrotalcite.
