The Minerals Lease was permitted in year 2001, for Feldspar Mining in the Central  Area,Thailand. The Crushing Plant is set up in one year later to supply the product to Glass and Ceramic industries in Central part of Thailand and to export for Asian.
New Crushing Plant
By the year 2002 , the new plant of crushing fine product of sodium Feldspar was started up. With the capacity of 5000 MTS a month for sizing of below 1 mm.,the Glass grade of size 30-200 mesh , 100 mesh and 200 mesh , including with 500 mesh. The classify of sizing has operated by the Air Seperator system that making too clear in each range.   The high density megnatics are placed for iron free in all productions.
Mining
It is an annual mining capacity of 200,000 MTS, our deposits of Soda - Feldspar is estimated more 20 million MTS which secures supply for  more 40 years.
Feldspar

Chemically the feldspars are silicates of aluminum, containing sodium, potassium, iron,calcium, or barium or combinations of these elements.  Feldspar is found in association with all rock types, including granite, gneiss, basalt, and other crystalline rocks, and are essential constituents of most ingeous rocks.  Feldspars weather to yield a large part of the clay found in soils.  Feldspar crystals are either monoclinic or triclinic and all show clean cleavage planes in two directions.  Orthoclase feldspars have cleavage planes that intersect at right angles; triclinic feldspars, including the plagioclase feldspars (e.g., albite, anorthite, and labradorite) and microcline, have cleavage planes that form slightly oblique angles.  Pure feldspar is colorless and transparent but the mineral is commonly opaque and found in a variety of colors.  Orthoclase and microcline are calles potassium or potash feldspars.  They usually range from flesh color to brick red, although other colors are found, and are used in the making of porcelain and as a source of aluminum in making glass.  A green variety of micorcline known as amazonite, or Amazon stone, is used for ornamental purposes.  The plagioclase feldspars are most commonly gray and occasionally red.  Another form of feldspar, labradorite, exhibits a play of colors, which makes it valuable for decorative purposes.




The sea port is 45 K.M. from the plant which is full facilities to discharge and load. The side pier is prepare for the barge 3000-4000 MTS. with the draft of water  mininum 5 meters depth.           The capacity of loading is      5000 MTS a day.

The new Crushing Plant  is placed on                    80000 sq.metre with a crushed house and             a fine - seperated house.
The concreted   yard is taken for chip size product on  12000 sq. meter of 30000 MTS.
The 3 seperated cyclone sets and an Air back filter  are the compositon of the Air Seperatior system. The classing system is developed by Kittikorn Group to class in the fine high quality products.
