Abstract
The article reports the research findings on feasibility of abrasive garnet production from garnet-mica schist of Western Keivy deposit on the Kola Peninsula using the method of electropulse disintegration. After the tests of material ground to - 1 + 0.25, 90% of pure garnet has been produced. The research shows prospects for electropulse disintegration application in production of pure abrasive garnet chips.
