More2020-1-1 During milling the uranium bearing ore is initially crushed (if preceded by conventional mining), which is typically a dry process, and then ground into a slurry, which is a wet process. The intent of crushing and grinding is to effectively increase the surface area to volume ratio of the material, which facilitates chemical leaching.

MoreMilling, which is generally carried out close to a uranium mine, extracts the uranium from the ore. Most mining facilities include a mill, although where mines are close together, one mill may process the ore from several mines. Milling produces a uranium oxide concentrate which is shipped from the mill.

More2021-7-4 Uranium processing, preparation of the ore for use in various products.. Uranium (U), although very dense (19.1 grams per cubic centimetre), is a relatively weak, nonrefractory metal. Indeed, the metallic properties of uranium appear to be intermediate between those of silver and other true metals and those of the nonmetallic elements, so that it is not valued for structural applications.
