Encapsulated Urea-Kaolinite Nanocomposite for Controlled Release
3.3. Chemical Composition. The chemical composition of both raw and beneficiated Pugu kaolinite used in this study is given in Table 3.As can be seen that beneficiation process was very successful, there was a reduction of silica content from 63.64 to 54.99% upon beneficiation whereas alumina content got increased from 31.43 to 40.2%.

Iron ore beneficiation: an overview
2.4. Beneficiation methods. Beneficiation is a process where ore is reduced in size and valuable minerals are separated from the gangue minerals. Separation of valuable minerals from gangue minerals can be efficiently achieved by taking advantage of the differences in physical, surface, and magnetic properties.
