Grinding media are materials used to grind or crush mineral ores in the mining industry during extraction and processing. These media are often spherical, cylindrical, or pebble-shaped and made from materials like steel, cast iron, and ceramic. They help in the grinding and milling of ores, producing finer and more uniform products for easier processing.
