A method for processing an oil sand froth that is withdrawn as an underflow stream (5) from a primary bitumen froth separation vessel (4) comprises the steps of vigorously agitating the underflow in an agitating tank (6) at such a shear level that agglomerates of asphaltenes and clays are formed whilst redispersion of the thus formed agglomerates remains limited and separating said agglomerates as a middlings stream (9) from the other components e.g. in a secondary separation vessel (7) in which the froth is gently agitated.
