milling and leaching the ore in sulphuric acid. Manganese sulphate is crystallised from the solution, redissolved and electrolysed to give the manganese dioxide. (a) After crushing, the ore is milled from a maximum size of 5.0 mm to 1.0 mm using an energy input of 70kW/tonne. Using Bond's relationship, calculate the work index. If the milling

Manganese increased 1.50 CNY/mtu or 5.13% since the beginning of 2024, according to trading on a contract for difference (CFD) that tracks the benchmark market for this commodity. Manganese Ore - values, historical data, forecasts and news - updated on September of 2024.

A Non-standard rod mill result can be converted to a Bond rod mill work index by: Bond Wi RM = 0.42 × (Wi nonstandard)^1.22 Source: Dec 2023 Public Grindability Database Bond rod mill Wi versus A×b for copper porphyries A slightly better relationship can be determined if the database is limited to projects of a similar lithology. Limiting to ...

It is a well-known fact that the value of the Bond work index (wi) for a given ore varies along with the grinding size. In this study, a variability bysis is carried out with the Bond standard grindability tests on different critical metal ores (W, Ta), ranging from coarse grinding (rod mills) to fine grinding (ball mills).

 — The self-grinding work index is an extension of the concept of Bond work index. It generally refers to the work index calculated by using Bond's fracture theory on the principle of ore crushing energy consumption according to the W, F, and P data of a small or semi-industrial or industrial self-grinding test. In this kind of test, McPherson small self …
