New kaolin deposits were discovered at two different locations in Sivas, Turkey. The first deposit was located in the north of a town called Zara, towards the east of another one called Kosedag. The second deposit was in the north of Susehri, on a mountain called Igdirdag. In this study, some physical and chemical properties of kaolin samples from those deposits were investigated after illustrating necessary geological information about the area. Mineral processing studies were also carried out to determine the suitable separation method and the related processing parameters, i.e. hydrocycloning for these two different types of kaolins.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
