Ball mills are meant for fine grinding (not necessarily "liberation") and their output is usually screened with oversize being recycled. Probably most "ores" that are processed in ball mills undergoes a floatation process to collect and concentrate the desired minerals. That said, a home made pipe pulverizer or an impact mill of some type is ...

In all ore dressing and milling Operations, including flotation, cyanidation, gravity concentration, and amalgamation, the Working Principle is to crush and grind, often with rob mill & ball mills, the ore in order to liberate the minerals. In the chemical and process industries, grinding is an important step in preparing raw materials for subsequent treatment.

Optimization of mill performance by using online ball and pulp measurements by B. Clermont* and B. de Haas* Synopsis Ball mills are usually the largest consumers of energy within a mineral concentrator. Comminution is responsible for 50% of the total mineral processing cost. In today's global markets, expanding mining groups are trying

The mineralogy and liberation characteristics of the comminuted Penouta leucogranite host of the Sn-Ta ore were determined.
