ABSTRACT:
A superior grade of flake mica product may be produced by applying shear forces to sedimentary mica to delaminate it into flakes. Shear forces are applied by rotating a plurality of arcuate blades within a confined cylindrical chamber containing the mica, such that the mica is forced between an outer portion of each blade and the chamber. Each one of the arcuate blades is curved to define an end portion that is spaced from, and substantially concentric with, a portion of the cylindrical chamber.
