Quartzfeldspar separation for the glass and ceramics
Large reserves of feldspar ore exist in the Aegean region of Turkey. The main colored impurities in these ores are iron and titaniumbearing minerals such as anatase, rutile, sphene and ilmenite. In this study, a potassium feldspar ore containing mainly quartz and coloring impurities was subjected to beneficiation tests involving magneticseparation and flotation, which were applied either
