ABSTRACT:
A method and an apparatus for catching a partly fibrated mineral bloom which is thrown out from rotating fibrating wheels (1, 2), which are supplied with a mineral bloom. The catching of the partly fibrated mineral is made by one or several jets or flows of a liquid medium, especially water, which are directed to the fibres at an angle to the outflow direction of the fibres from the fibrating wheel or wheels (1, 2). The liquid flow or flows can be provided in one or several sets completely or partly extending round the periphery of the fibrating wheels (1, 2). The liquid flows can be flat or bowformed jets which are provided so as to completely surround the periphery of the fibrating wheels. By means of the liquid flows the partly fibrated mineral is brought away for further treatment, especially for separating fibres from non-fibrated particles, so called pearls.
