which plague tumbling mill rock characterisation tests (Angove and Dunne (1997), Kaya (2001)). Such tests usually suffer from variations in feed size, which is often not closely controlled, as well as energy input, which although is often assumed to be constant per mill revolution is often highly variable (Levin, 1989).
