Abstract

A dry grinding process for reducing ore to pelletizable particles comprises grinding the ore in a size-reducing unit and classfiying the ore in a centrifugal pneumatic separator which is automatically controlled to make the coarse fraction available at a substantially constant rate. The coarse fraction is recycled to the size-reducing unit and the total rate of fed ore and recycled coarse fraction is maintained substantially constant. The ore-feeding rate is varied when, and only when, a controlled variable of the pneumatic separator has a deviation in excess of a predetermined permissible deviation.
