Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Nickel slags are presented in the form of granules or massive(stones)

Partcle size distribution was determined for the granulated slag. Granules were tested in their original partcile size as placed on the market.

D50 of parcle size for the slag granules is measured of 1714µm
D80 of parcle size for the slag granules is measured of 2374 µm
