Grinding aids in a ball mill can proficiently impact production cost. 4 Three major aspects in grinding aid would be decrease “pack-set,” increase flowability and reduce moisture in the silo. 4 Pack-set is the agglomeration of mineral coating on the media which reduces the crushing effect. 4 Using an additive increases flow by reducing ball coating and increasing the separator efficiency by allowing a better “cut.” 4 Agglomeration on ball charge can
