Energy Use of Fine Grinding in Mineral Processing

Fine grinding, to P80 sizes as low as 7 μm, is becoming increasingly important as mines treat ores with smaller liberation sizes. This grinding is typically done using stirred mills such as the Isamill or Stirred Media Detritor. While fine grinding consumes less energy than primary grinding, it can still account for a substantial part of a mill's energy budget. Overall …

Quartz Beneficiation Plant & Equipment

1. Washing-classifying-desilting: In the quartz sand beneficiation process, the fine-grained grade with a particle size of less than 0.1 mm is usually called slime.For quartz sand with a large amount of clay and ore mud, as the particle size becomes finer, the grade of silica gradually decreases, while impurities such as iron and aluminum rise instead.
