X-ray study of potassium feldspars from different granitoid types and gneisses of Papuk Mt. (Slavonia, Croatia)

open access: yesGeologia Croatica, 2011
Potassium feldspars from different granitoids and gneisses of Papuk Mt. (Slavonia, Croatia) have been investigated by X-ray powder diffraction. Diffraction patterns classically observed as well as patterns calculated by Rietveld refinement were compared ...

Potassium chloride recovery from mechanically activated microcline through the chlorination roasting and leaching route [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
In this study, effects of mechanical activation in the chlorination roasting and water leaching route known as CaCl2 process and developed for the production of potassium chloride (KCl) from potassium feldspar ores were studied. A microcline containing K-
