Mineralogical composition of kaolinised granite is as follows: kaolinite, feldspar, quartz, and mica. After separating >0.630 mm, and <0.043 mm size class where kaolinite is concentrated, the rest is –0.630+0.043 mm class containing quartz, feldspar and mica. The mica concentrate was obtained by the flotation concentration, while feldspar and quartz were in the flotation underflow. According to the mineralogical analysis, the most abundant minerals are mica and chlorite/clays, while quartz and feldspar occur much less, and accessory minerals are represented in trace. The semi-quantitative mineralogical analysis obtained by the X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) method of the mica concentrate amount to: mica ≈55%, chlorite/clays ≈35%, quartz ≈5%, feldspars (plagioclase and K-feldspars combined) ≈5%.}, type={Article}, title={Potentiality of Obtaining Mica Flotation Concentrate from Kaolinised Granite}, URL={http://czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/112905/PDF/Archiwum-64-3-03-Mihajlovic.pdf}, doi={10.24425/ams.2019.129365}, keywords={kaolinised granite, muscovite, biotite, flotation concentration, mica concentrate}, }
