The natural flotation behaviour of pure talc mineral was first studied by measuring its contact angle, flotation recovery and zeta potential. Polypropylene glycol was used as a frother to increase the talc flotation at relatively shorter times. This study was used to beneficiate talc- carbonate ore to obtain talc concentrates suitable for various industrial uses. Effects of pH and frother dosage on the flotation process were studied A rougher concentrate, with talc grade of approximate to 60 % and recovery of 90 % was obtained. The rougher concentrate product was reground to 100 % -125 mu m and floated at the predetermined optimum flotation conditions. Clean talc concentrate at a recovery of 70 % with a grade of 93.5 % from an ore containing 48.69 % talc, was obtained
