On cooling the partticles will be magnetic and are then run through the magnetic seperating machine described in patent ______ and in applications now pending. The trajectory of the falling magnetic particles being altered fall one side of a dividing board while the non magnetic particles fall on the other side. ### Claim process 1st crushing 2nd heating to make it magnetic 3rd seperating by our seperator or any other magnetic seperator.
