MLA-based partition curves for magnetic separation
Other paramagnetic minerals in the greisen mineral assemblage, in particular columbite and limonite, are scarce phases of less than 0.1 weight% (wt%) abundance. Thus, zinnwaldite clearly dominates the magnetic separation process. In the present investigation sieved fractions from the same greisen-type ore were magnetically separated.

Review on the Beneficiation of Li, Be, Ta, Nb-Bearing
If the BeO grade of LPPO is greater than the industrial grade (BeO ≥ 0.04%), it will be processed for recovery. Tantalum and niobium minerals are mainly in the form of tantalite, columbite, or ferrotapiolite, which may be recovered by gravity separation or magnetic separation. Gangue minerals are mainly composed of albite and quartz.
