Ball mills are one of the most common types of grinding mills. 

Ball mills are one of the most common types of grinding mills. They are versatile and can be used to grind a wide range of materials, including ores, ceramics, and chemicals.

Ball mills consist of a rotating cylinder filled with grinding media, such as steel balls or ceramic balls. The rotation of the cylinder causes the balls to move, impacting and grinding the material.

Ball mills are suitable for both wet and dry grinding processes. In the mining industry, ball mills are often used to grind ores into a fine powder, which can then be further processed to extract valuable minerals. They can handle large feed sizes and produce a relatively fine product, with particle sizes ranging from a few millimeters to a few micrometers.​
