Microstructural observations on the pseudo-brookite $MgTi_2O_5$ and the similar type of $(In_{0.36}Zn_{1.09})Ti_2O_{5.64}$ were carried out using a top-entry HRTEM working at 200 kV. The modulated structures were found in $(In_{0.36}Zn_{1.09})Ti_2O_{5.64}$, however, not in $MgTi_2O_5$. The electron diffraction patterns of sublattice in $(In_{0.36}Zn_{1.09})Ti_2O_{5.64}$ are quite similar to those of pseudo-brookite $MgTi_2O_5$. but the complicated superlattice reflections are present in the diffraction patterns. Four types of modulations have been found. The periodicities for the modulated structure are found to be 3.63 nm, 0.79 nm and 0.64 nm along [220] direction, and 0.81 nm along [420] direction. The phase transition from the modulated structure to the unmodulated one was also observed in situ due to the electron beam irradiation reversibly. Further damage by the electron beam made the crystal to be fragmented into many small crystals with the formation of the voids at the kinks in ledged structure of the surface. The anisotropic arrangements of In and O atoms in $(In_{0.36}Zn_{1.09})Ti_2O_{5.64}$ might cause the compound to be unstable under the electron beam.

This study was performed by chemical analysis and metallographic observation. Chemical properties were analized by ICP, XRD and SEM-EDS and slag structures were observed by microscope and SEM. Total Fe amounts in A, C area of slag can be observed $39\~45\%$ by chemical analysis results. It was average of acient times. CaO was $3\~8\%$. It's not plentiful but we think that was artificial. Ti was found in A area a little, and Ti, V were found in C area so much. The compounds, as if Fayalite, Wustite, Magnetite, Ilmenite, Pseudo-brookite, Ulvospinel, Forsterite, Fephroite, Olivine were observed in the result XRD. These structures were also observed in microscope and SEM image. Therefore, The furnance of A area usually used an iron mine, An Iron furnance of C area considered it which refined using a raw iron mine and a raw iron sand.
