  • Abstract
    A method has been developed to collect diamagnetic particles and to separate diamagnetic components from a critical mineral resource, in this case, aluminum minerals from alunite ore. A study of matrix design for this purpose and for enhancement of the magnetic force by the use of a paramagnetic liquid has resulted in particle collection from model diamagnetic particle slurries and separation of diamagnetic ore components.
