Abstract

"There are at present at least two methods in use for concentrating and classifying asbestos fibers, each of which is satisfactory when used to handle ores for which it was designed. The processes can be referred to, conveniently, as the pneumatic and gravimetric processes, deriving their names from the chief factors used in their schemes of operation" – Types of Asbestos Mills, p. 3.
