Mechanisms and conditions for rounding of AUC particles were examined during AUC precipitation. Rounding of AUC particle was possible only by external circulation using pump, not by internal circulation using agitator. The rate of AUC rounding $(dn_p/dt)$ was proporational to operation conditions such as magma density $(M_t:g-U/{iota}l)$, turn over ratio $(T_o)$ and impeller tip velocity of pump (U); $ dn_p/dt{propto}M_t{cdot}T_o{cdot}U^2$. The validity of this relationship was qualitatively confirmed by comparing the expermental results. Two rounding mechanisms were suggested. One is crack formation mechanism and the other etch-pit formation mechanism on the surface of AUC particle. It was found that the crack formation is more dominant at the initial stage and the etch-pit formation at the final stage of the AUC precipitation.
