The mixture [calcareous and argillaceous materials] is burned in a rotary kiln at a temperature of above 2700 °F to form hard modulized pellets called clinker. The clinker is ground with a retarder(usually rock gypsum) to a fine powder, which constitutes the portland cement. 5, record 14, English, - firing

Primary stopes are backfilled with cemented rock fill produced by spraying a cement-fly ash slurry on the rockfill before it is distributed to the stopes. The cemented rockfill hardens into a solid mass forming an artificial pillar for mining the secondary stope. The cement slurry is generally not required when secondary stopes are backfilled, except for the last pours to establish a firm mucking floor. 1, record 15, English, - cemented%20rock%20fill
