An old engraving of a large ore grinding and separating machine from the 1800s. It is from a Victorian mechanical engineering book of the 1880s. Mineral processing is the process of separating commercially valuable minerals from their ores. Depending on the processes used in each instance, it is often referred to as ore dressing or ore milling. Here the vertical nature of the machinery means gravity assists in feeding the raw material down through belt-driven grinders that crush the ore.
