Autogenous mills operate mechanically like ball mills; however, the media used for grinding differs. Simply put, in autogenous grinding, the media is also the material that is being ground, whereas in other milling methods steel or porcelain balls are used as media.

Autogenous Mills use large particles of ore instead of steel or other balls for grinding media. Autogenous mills use large pieces of ore as grinding media. The grinding is facilitated in autogenous mills by attrition with limited grinding by impact. For an ore to successfully grind autogenously, the ore must be competent, and it must break along grain boundaries at the desired product size ...

The mill power draw, throughput and product size distribution are used to compute a specific energy input and the MacPherson autogenous work index (AWI). Although the importance to achieve steady-state in a grinding test is widely accepted (Bond tests), the MacPherson test remains the only small-scale AG/SAG mill test that offers this option.

Autogenous grinding mills use larger rocks to impact and break smaller rocks as the mill rotates. Semi-autogenous mills are basically the same autogenous mills, but with the addition of balls, similar to those in ball mills. Semi-autogenous mills have larger diameter-to-length ratios compared to ball mills. Common applications for semi-autogenous mills include gold, copper and platinum.
