Simulation of wet ball milling of iron ore at Carajas, Brazil
The results of the analyses clearly shows that using a sieve of +180µm and its bottom -180µm, the best time for grinding 0.5kg of Itakpe iron ore with 3kg of grinding media and a mill speed of 92 rpm is 8 minutes, yielding 17.10% fines and 82.90% coarse., 0.8 mill critical speed measured 15.20% fines and 84.80% coarse.
