1. INTRODUCTION

Trisar Resources is currently Investigating a dolomite deposit located 1n Eastern Ontario for the commercial exploitation of its ore reserves. Trisar Resources anticipate that the material could find use as as a filler in paper and plastic products.

The Ontario Research Foundation was requested to prepare (by fine grinding methods) and to evaluate two samples of the ore, selected by Trisar Resources. This report describes the results of this testwork.

2. SAMPLE PREPARATION

2.1 Sample One

The first sample was initially crushed 1n a laboratory impact crusher using a gap setting of 6.4 mm and a rotor speed of 1,400 rpm. This "stock feed" was subsequently finely ground by the following methods:

2.1.1 Laboratory Ball Hill

A 2000 gm representative test sample of the "stock feed" was ground in a laboratory rubber-lined ball mill using Zirconia balls as the grinding medium. The objective of preparing this sample was to provide initial data on the quality of the dolomite.

The test sample was dry milled for eight hours and degritted using a 325 mesh (45 vim) test sieve. The minus 45 \m material was then wet milled for five hours using ethanol as the liquid medium. The finely ground material was subsequently filtered, air-dried and evaluated using the procedures described in Section 3 of this report.

Trlsar ResourcesReport No. IMS 63-40012-84

2.1.2 Pilot-Scale Dry Grinding and Classification

The remainder of the "stock feed" was finely ground 1n a "pilot size" fluid energy mill. The principle of operation of this mill Is described in Appendix B.

The "feed stock" was introduced to the fluid energy mill via a vibratory-controlled feeder. The product recovered from the cyclone collector (which contained the bulk of the material) was inspected for fineness. This product was found to have sufficient fineness after two further passes 1n the mill. Both the final cyclone and baghouse collector products were evaluated using the procedures described in Section 3 of this report.

2.2 Sample Two

The second field sample was Initially crushed in a laboratory impact crusher using a gap setting of 6.4 mm and a rotor speed of 1,400 rpm. The crushed material was split Into 1,800 gm lots and each lot was wet-milled for six hours in a rubber-lined ball mill. Zirconia balls and ethanol were used as the grinding and fluid media, respectively.

The ground material was recomblned, filtered, air-dried and classified using a 10 mm diameter hydrocyclone. Initial classification was performed using a cyclone pressure differential of 50 psi. A further classification of the initial underflow fraction was requested by Trisar Resources. This second classification was performed using a cyclone pressure differential of 30 psi.

The two overflow fractions (50 and 30 psi) and the second underflow fraction (30 psi) were thickened using a simple decantation

method. Care was taken to recover all fines. Representative allquots of the three fractions were evaluated.

3. Product Evaluation

The six test specimens prepared (described 1n Section 2 of this report) were evaluated for the following properties:

* Particle Size* Reflectance of Light* pHt Moisturet Oil Absorption

A brief description of the methods used to measure these properties is as follows:

3.1 Particle Size

The six samples were measured for particle size using the Coulter Counter technique. A representative portion of each sample was extracted and analyzed on the Coulter Counter TAIL The samples were diluted with Isoton II and subjected to 30 seconds In a low power, ultrasonic bath to aid particulate dispersion. For all samples, a multi-aperture tube technique was required to evaluate the complete particle size distribution.

3.2 Reflectance of Light

The six specimens were subjected to tristlmulus reflectance measurements. A single pellet was prepared for each specimen, using a Zeiss Powder Press. The tristlmulus values were measured by reference to magnesium oxide and under the Illumination of standard illuminant C (average daylight). Diffuse reflectance

Page 5: PREPARATION AND EVALUATION OF TWO DOLOMITE SAMP …

TMsar ResourcesReport No. IMS 63-40012-84

values R , R , and R were determined with the three tr1st1mulus filters (FMX/C, FMY/C and FMZ/C). In the CIE system, (Commission International de 1'Eclalre), tr1st1mulus values refer to the basic stimulus E (equal energy spectrum). The tr1st1mulus values X, Y, and Z are derived from the following equations:

0,782 R x 0.198 RA

1.181

While all three values are required to define a color on the CIE chromaticity diagram, the Y tr1st1mulus value 1s all that 1s required to specify the lightness or brightness of a specimen.

3.3 pH. Oil Absorption and Moisture Content

The pH, oil absorption and moisture content was measured for the six specimens using the following methods:

t pH: ASTM DI 208

t Oil Absorption: ASTM 0281* Moisture Content: ASTM 280, Method A

All samples that were prepared using wet methods were dried at 1050C until constant weight was achieved prior to testing.

4. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

The material balance for the samples prepared by the dry and wet milling methods are presented 1n Tables I and I I, respectively. The properties measured for each prepared sample are summarized in Table III.

Page 6: PREPARATION AND EVALUATION OF TWO DOLOMITE SAMP …

Trisar ResourcesReport No. IMS 63-40012-84

The pH and moisture values appear to be typical of commercially available calcium carbonates. The oil absorption values, however, appear to be somewhat higher (commercially available carbonates typically absorb oil from 13.OX to 20.OX of their weight).

The Y tr1st1mulus values (which specify the brightness of the powdered sample) suggest that the dry milled material has been contaminated, possibly from abrasion of the mill casing. This problem could be rectified by utilizing a mill Uner, or by selecting a fluid energy mill that minimizes abrasion.

It should be noted that there are two lightness or brightness methods that are currently 1n practice 1n the mineral fillers industry: the Y value in the CIE system (Commission International de 1'Eclaire) and the L value 1n the Hunter Colour Scale. The relationship between the two scales is as follows:

Since both these systems are commonly practiced, 1t 1s imperative, when quoting brightness to make reference to the system used.

Based on the CIE brightness values shown 1n Table III, all of the wet milled material is comparable to commercially available carbonates in brightness.

The particle size values summarized 1n Table III are defined as follows:

t DIQ : the particle size (um) that 10X V/V of the material 1s smaller than.

t DSO : the median particle size ( \an)

Page 7: PREPARATION AND EVALUATION OF TWO DOLOMITE SAMP …

Trisar ResourcesReport No. IMS 63-40012-84

. the particle size (unt) that 90X v/v of thematerial 1s smaller than.

A detailed description of the measured particle s ize distribution for the six samples 1s presented in Appendix A.

Based on the median particle sizes, filler and coating grade carbonate products could be made from the Eastern Ontario Deposit. It should be noted, however, that further testwork may be specified by the potential consumers of this material.

It should also be pointed out that the bulk of the wet ground products were thickened and not dried. This procedure was conducted to prevent any caking and/or agglomeration that may occur in the dry state. If dry samples are required, it 1s advisable to take steps to ensure that minimal caking and/or agglomeration occurs during the drying operation..

Due to the extremely fine nature of Samples 3 and 4, an absolute value for the percent less than the minimum measurable value (0.6 - 0.8 ym), could only be estimated using the technique of Emonet. For Sample 3, (Baghouse) it is estimated that 7.r/o by volume is less than 0.8 ym and for Sample 4, (Overflow) 4.5/b is less than 0.6 ym. This would further reduce the values calculated in Table I.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION OF FLUID ENERGY HILL

Trlsar ResourcesReport No. IMS 63-40012-84

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION OF FLUID ENERGY HILL

Basically, the fluid energy mill makes use of the principle that if two particles collide, or are brought together with a sufficiently large force, one, or both of them, will break Into smaller pieces. In a fluid energy mill, the material to be pulverized is exposed to streams of fluid 1n the mill. The fluid (1n the present case, 54 psi of air) is introduced through specially designed nozzles which increases Us velocity. The solid particles are swept into violent turbulence by these velocity streams, colliding with, and quickly pulverizing one another.

The fluid stream flows upwards from the reduction zone and enters the classification zone. As the stream enters this zone, Us velocity is adjusted to combine with centrifugal action 1n guiding the oversize particles away from the mill outlet. Part of the circulating fluid, as it passes a reverse outlet, 1s deflected and swept from the mill, carrying only the solid particles that are small enough to be diverted from their path. Oversize particles, remaining in the mill, are carried back into the reduction zone, joining a new supply of raw feed.

Undersize particles, removed from the mill are recovered from a high efficiency (long cone) cyclone dust collector. Any ultrafine sized particles escaping from the cyclone collector are recovered from a baghouse dust collector.
