Ferroboron: Colemanite Reduced by Ferrosilicon above 2000 °C in an Arc Furnace (Hansen, GE, US 982,135, 1911)
Ferroboron should carry little carbon, so Hansen reduced the boron mineral colemanite with silicon instead of coke. The silicon takes the oxygen, joins the lime as a calcium silicate slag, and the boron goes into the iron of the ferrosilicon.
Result: ferroboron, low in carbon, under a clean slag.

Powder and mix with ferrosilicon
Grind it and mix with powdered ferrosilicon: enough silicon to reduce all the boron and slag off the lime. The amount depends on the silicon content of the ferrosilicon.

Reduce above 2000 °C
Heat the pellets above 2000 °C, e.g. in a Moissan arc furnace (a ferrosilicon-type resistance furnace also works). Silicon reduces the boron; the calcium silicate slag separates cleanly from the ferroboron.
