Beneficiation processes of Wadi Mubarak quartz deposits 
The processing technologies have to be adapted for specific requirements of quartz raw 
materials. Only in the rarest instances, it is possible to use raw materials right away without some 
prior processing. Processing technologies therefore, play a central role in the value enhancement 
chain and maximum utilization of quartz. These technologies are the decisive factor in the 
commercial success of a deposit. Process development always starts out from chemical and physical 
characteristics of natural quartz. In the past, special attention was devoted to the development of the 
processes regarding sample preparation and procedures for the detection of trace impurities in 
quartz up to the ppb-area /7/. Laboratory tests must be done to figure out which process 
combination will lead to an optimal result at the end.

The beneficiation procedures applied on some of Wadi Mubarak quartz samples of variable 
silica content and impurities are froth Floatation followed by wet magnetic separation.
The selected quartz samples were subjected to grinding processes which resulted in quartz 
powder of about 60 to 100 micron grain size /8/. This quartz powder was treated using froth 
Floatation. The froth Floatation process is selected as the result of chemical analyses of the selective 
raw quartz samples which show an increase of Al

, and loss on ignition, which reflect the 
presence of alkalis and mica impurities. Therefore, it is clear that the main target of the Floatation 
process is to remove the excess of alumina bearing minerals.
The wet high intensity magnetic separation method is also used to reduce the Fe-oxides 
content. The description of froth Floatation and magnetic separation methods are given hereunder:
