Abstract
This experimental cum research exploration is focused on the production of artificial aggregates with an adoption of pelletization technique. The influential factors for ascertaining the efficiency of the production process are nature of binding agent, required moisture content, process duration and dosage of alkali binder. Aggregates were produced in various combinations including the industrial by-products replaced partially by mine tailings with the addition of some percentages of lime. These produced aggregates were analysed for their engineering properties. It was observed that with the utilization of these mine tailings in this production of artificial aggregates have given an enhancement in the basic characteristic properties of the produced aggregates which are nearly comparable to that of natural aggregates.
