What is fluorite? Can it be processed with Raymond mill?
Fluorite’s low hardness is highly compatible with the grinding capacity of Raymond mills. Raymond mill processing can efficiently produce fluorite powder that meets industrial standards and is widely used in metallurgy, new energy, optics and other fields.
Fluorite is an important industrial mineral, primarily composed of calcium fluoride (CaF₂), belonging to the group of halides. Its crystal structure is typically isometric, exhibiting octahedral or cubic forms, with a vitreous luster and a variety of colors (e.g., colorless, green, purple, blue, etc.). It has a hardness of 4 and a specific gravity of approximately 3.18. Fluorite’s rich colors are due to impurities or rare earth elements replacing calcium ions. Some varieties fluoresce under ultraviolet light, earning it the name “fluorspar” or “fluorescent stone.” Fluorite is widely distributed in rocks such as granite and pegmatite. It is the primary raw material for the industrial extraction of fluorine and is widely used in metallurgy, chemicals, building materials, optics, and other fields.
