Conduct and precision of bond grindability testing☆
The ball mill grindability test is used for describing ore hardness and it is so widespread that the Bond Work Index generated from the test is often referred to as an ore characteristic. The ore resistance to grinding and energy consumption can be expressed using the work index and Bond's Third Theory. The Bond Third Theory method is widely ...

Bond Work Index
The Bond work index is not solely a material constant but is influenced by the grinding conditions. For example, the finer the grind size desired, the higher is the kWh/t required to grind to that size. Magdalinovic [38] measured the Bond work index of three ore types using different test screen sizes. He produced a correlation between the mass of test …

Variability Study of Bond Work Index and Grindability …
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 relationship between wi and …
Comminution test method using small drill core samples
The starting point selected for the new grindability test was the Bond ball mill grindability test (Fig. 2).
