  "definition": "To classify crushed or ground ore particles into groups based on their physical dimensions through screening or other mechanical methods. This process separates the material into distinct fractions, each containing particles within a specific size range, to prepare it for subsequent processing stages like grinding or flotation. A common method uses a series of stacked vibrating screens with progressively smaller mesh openings to achieve the desired particle size distribution.",
