According to the method described in Norberg, it tells us how to find the maximum ball size in the
mill

𝑀 = 2.26 𝑝𝑢𝑙𝑔.

DISTRIBUTION SIZE

METHOD
The method used according to the Norberg manual indicates that the distribution of balls is found
by means of the maximum ball size and a distribution box.
