Mine Tailings - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
Mine tailings are the finely ground residue from ore extraction. The grain size of the tailings depends on the nature of the ore and the milling process. Size measurements (Robertson, 1994) of tailings from four mines in Ontario, Canada, indicated the tailings materials to be predominantly silt and fine to medium sand with <10% clay content.

Using Ball Mills to Extract Raw Gold from Ores ...
At major mines, the mill was the critical equipment that was required to process the ores that were extracted from deep underground. Many early mines used stamp mills, but many operations today find that ball mills are more functional for smaller operations and perform well with the modern equipment we have available now such as combustion engines.
