This study was carried out to determine the possibility of upgrading feldspar from Al-Samawa sand dune deposit containing about 2% Na2O and 1% K2O. Two samples from the same location was tested by screening, employing, washing and disliming followed by magnetic separation then froth flotation by tallow amine acetate as a collector with poly propylene glycol and Ethyl diamine tetracetate (EDTA). The experimental results shows that a concentrate of commercial grade can be obtained in percent 5.54% Na2O and 2.41% K2O with a recovery of about 76.2 % and 77%.
