Mica sample containing 34% alumina and 9% potash has been investigated as a potential dual source of alumina and potash. It was found that planetary milling had a strong effect on structure breakdown as well as on the release of alumina and potash values. Both alumina and potash were extracted from mica using mechanical milling followed by hydrochloric acid leaching and precipitation process ...

The Process of Potash Solution Mining. Here in Saskatchewan, potash is extracted from deep underground deposits (generally 1,000 m or 1 km deep), using either conventional mining or solution mining. Conventional mining (using traditional mining machines) requires the mechanical extraction and conveying of the ore and surrounding minerals.
