Present paper deals with the mechanical activation of deposited brown coal fly ash in a high energy density mill. The mechanical activation was carried out in a laboratory scale stirred media mill using various rotor circumferential speed (5 and 7 m/s), and different grinding time (from 1 min up to 180 min). The consumed energy was measured during the grinding process. Furthermore, particle size distribution and specific surface area were determined using laser particle size analyzer. The structural changes were detected by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Additionally, transformation in mineralogical phases was measured by X-ray diffraction, as well as particle morphology and crystal defects were determined by transmission electron microscopy. As a result of the investigation, relationship between the technological parameters of the grinding and the properties of the ground material was created. It was found that there is a certain mechanochemical effect on the crystal structure of fly ash components in the stirred media mill, as it was revealed by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. The most efficient grinding parameters were determined.
