Miscellaneous
- Family: Feldspar
- Region: None
- Mined At: Unspecified
- Raw Mineral: No
- Generic: No
Notes
K-40 is used as a source of alumina and potash in specialized glass batch formulations requiring high potassium levels. Carefully beneficiated using the froth floation process, K-40 Feldspar offers low iron and high alkali content per unit of alumina.
