A new magnetic separation technique combines high magnetic fields, extreme gradients, and controlled retention time to separate feebly magnetic mineral contaminants from kaolin.

Extraction of pyrite, siderite, hematite, iron stained anatase, and mica by magnetic filtration of kaolin significantly upgrades brightness of many sub-marginal deposits and reduces consumption of reagents in processing.
