The capacity [of a grinding mill] is directly affected by the grindability of the ore. Unfortunately, no fully acceptable definition of grindability has yet been agreed on. It includes the qualities of hardness(or brittleness) and toughness(resilient resistance) of the ore and the characteristic resulting particle shape of the finished product... Bond's "Work Index"... gives a useful empiric guide to grindability for an ore of consistent character. 3, record 2, English, - grindability

[...] F.C. Bond (1951) a publié, sous le nom de troisième théorie, un essai de justification mathématique de la position intermédiaire, rattachant l'énergie théoriquement nécessaire à la puissance 2,5 de la dimension. La théorie de Bond lui a permis de mettre au point une méthode de mesure de la broyabilité (ou aptitude au broyage) complétée par une formule de calcul de l'indice énergétique, dont l'emploi tend à devenir de plus en plus courant. L'indice de broyabilité de Bond a été déterminé pour des matériaux divers au moyen d'un nombre considérable d'essais de laboratoire. 5, record 2, French, - broyabilit%C3%A9

... Alimak raise climber.... Alimak machines are in operation throughout the world, developing ore passes, ventilation shafts, main shafts, and others, at various inclinations and lengths. Climbers may be air driven, electric driven, or most recently, diesel/hydraulic driven. The raise climber consists of a cage for the crew, with a working platform on top for roof scaling and drilling and charging of holes. The machine, equipped with rack-and-pinion drive, travels along a guide rail and monorail with pinion rack, which are bolted to the hangingwall by expansion bolts. The guide rail is built up in sections and includes pipes for supplying air and water to drills and for ventilation of explosive gases following blasting. 2, record 6, English, - Alimak%20raise%20climber

L'«Alimak» est une cabine qui grimpe dans le montage sur une crémaillère. Cette cabine est équipée pour permettre la foration et le minage dans le montage. Au moment du tir, la cabine est redescendue et effacée dans la galerie inférieure. Les matériaux abattus tombent spontanément dans cette galerie et la cabine peut remonter pendant que les déblais sont chargés. Cette technique est une amélioration remarquable de la méthode de creusement traditionnelle qui nécessitait des échelles et un plancher de travail qu'il fallait reconstruire après chaque tir. 3, record 6, French, - Alimak
