Optimization of stirred mill parameters for fine grinding of …

Abstract The depletion of high-grade ores has forced the utilization of low-grade ores. The small liberation sizes in the low-grade ores require fine grinding which is an energy intensive operation. In the present study, low-grade chromite ore bearing platinum group of elements (PGE) was used as an experimental material. The previous study …
