Key words: Ball Mill; Bauxite; Micronized Grinding; Stirred Mill 1. Introduction In many different industries today, such as, plastics, ceramics, cement, metallurgy, paint, food, cosmetics and energy, there is a growing need for materials identified as fine and ultrafine. The situation is almost the same in the mining industry as well.

The bauxite gravel is typically composed of rounded light brown to red brown nodules. These gravels are commonly also bauxite ore grade and could be part of the deposit extracted for crushing and screening.The bauxite ore extraction process involves the topsoil being removed and stockpiled adjacent to the disturbed areas for use in ...

The process stages are: 1. Milling. The bauxite is washed and crushed, reducing the particle size and increasing the available surface area for the digestion stage. Lime and "spent liquor" (caustic soda returned from the …
