The behaviour of cationic and anionic collector mixtures in the feldspar-quartz flotation system has been investigated througl conductivity, surface tension, zeta-potential and flotation studies. Tht results show the formation of molecular complexes between oppositel; charged collector ions through charge neutralisation. The molecular complexes are found to have a higher surface activity than the individua components. The mole ratio of the mixed composition is found to have, significant effect on flotation. Mole ratio less than unit} (anionic/cationic) of collector mixtures increases the flotation recoveries If the mole fraction of the anionic collector is greater than the moh fraction of cationic collector in a mixed composition, flotation ceases The flotation selectivity principally depends on the inherent differences it the surface charges of feldspar and quartz at the flotation pH values of <2 the zeta-potential and flotation results are discussed in terms of thf adsorption behaviour of mixed collectors on these minerals.>
