Abstract

It has been found that accelerated electrons have great influence on strength properties of zeolite-containing rocks, and on their post-grinding grain-size composition and the degree of unlocking, which intensifies further processing. The authors show the possibility of reducing the content of ferruginous admixture in zeolite products: from 3.14 to 0.36% for zeolite-containing rocks from Shivyrtui deposit and from 11.2 to 0.12% for chabasite-containing basaltic andesite from Talan-Gozagorsky deposit.
