Crushing is used to reduce the size of run-of-mine (ROM) ore for further processing. Rock breakers are sometimes used in combination with crushers to reduce the feed size before the start of the crushing process.

Selecting crushing and grinding equipment
Mine operators need to choose the correct mining machinery and processing equipment based on factors such as geological conditions and ore type.
Selecting the correct crusher depends on ore characteristics such as abrasiveness, fragility, softness or stickiness, and the desired outcome. The crushing process can include primary, secondary, tertiary and even quaternary crushing stages.
Screens are used to separate rocks, ores and other materials by size. The crushed ore is sent to the grinding circuit to reduce the material into finer particles.
