Feldspar

Present mines worldwide are adequately meeting the need for raw feldspar. Hardrock mining for feldspars is done by openpit methods, either by the mine owner or by contractors. After the feldspar ore is drilled and blasted, secondary breakage is performed with a conventional drop ball. Ore is then loaded with a hydraulic shovel onto trucks and ...

Feldspar minerals are some of the most abundant minerals within the Earth's crust and are a common component of rocks. Species that are rich in potassium (K) are called potassium feldspars. Orthoclase, Microcline (Amazonite), and Sanidine are potassium feldspars. Feldspars rich in sodium (Na) or calcium (Ca) are plagioclase feldspars.

Feldspar mining in North America may have begun in preColonial times. Examination of shards from a large number of prehistoric culture centers, widely distributed in both place and time, shows that native potters often depended on feldspar from feldspathic sands to provide the temper (increased hardening) for their clay pots.

Hardrock mining for feldspars is done by openpit methods, either by the mine owner or by contractors. After the feldspar ore is drilled and blasted, secondary breakage is performed with a conventional drop ball. Ore is then loaded with a hydraulic shovel onto trucks and hauled to the crushing plant, which is adjacent to the flotation plant.
