Abstract Cement has hydraulic properties (mixed with water) will form a bond and harden. Cement-making materials consist of the main ingredients (Limestone, Iron Sand, Silica, and Clay) which are the ingredients in the manufacture of Rowmix in the Rowmill. In the main ingredient there is a magnetic mineral content for the manufacture of Component Compoun. To see changes in magnetic minerals from the cement manufacturing process, it is necessary to analyze the consistency of the material until the initial manufacture. The purpose of this study was to determine the consistency of the magnetic mineral as the main ingredient of cement in the Rowmix manufacturing process. The research method used is rock magnetism using a Bartington Susceptibility Meter Type B (MS2B) which can measure based on mass and volume with 2 different frequencies, namely Low Frequency and High Frequency. This measurement uses 6 different samples, namely the main ingredients of cement (Limestone, Irond Sand, Silica, Clay) and Rowmix materials (Rowmix 1 (RX1) and Rowmix 2 (RX2). From these measurements, the susceptibility values obtained from the main ingredients including Limestone approx. 23.7 x 10 −8 m 3 /kg - 46.6 x 10 −8 m 3 /kg, Irond Sand ranged from 470 x 10 −8 m 3 /kg - 1791.1 x 10 −8 m 3 /kg, Clay ranged from 852.7 x 10 −8 m 3 /kg - 986.4 x 10 −8 m 3 /kg, Silica ranges from 148.2 x 10 −8 m 3 /kg - 166.9 x 10 −8 m 3 /kg, while in Rowmill I process (Rx1) around 133, 4 x 10 −8 m 3 /kg - 180.3 x 10 −8 m 3 /kg, Rowmill 2 (Rx2) 133.4 x 10 −8 m 3 /kg - 244.2 x 10 −8 m 3 /kg, Magnetic susceptibility values in the main material range from 1532 x 10 −8 m 3 /kg up to 2838,6 x 10 −8 m 3 /kg, while the value of Rowmix 1 (RX1) and Rowmill 2 (Rx2) is lower than the magnetic susceptibility value of the main ingredient.
