Is ball mill used as a raw material for the commercial preparation of soda ash sodium carbonate?

A ball mill is a machine used for grinding chemicals, not a raw material. It's not used in the manufacture of sodium carbonate because the process they use to make sodium carbonate kicks it out as a usable powder. In the US, we don't use the synthetic way because we have a LOT of a mineral called trona in Wyoming - so much that it supplies a quarter of the world's sodium carbonate requirements. That is turned into sodium carbonate by digging it out of the ground, grinding it in a rock crusher, dissolving the sodium carbonate into water, then filtering the solution and evaporating it...once again, producing a usable powder.

Where are the lowest priced houses for sale in the United States?

Trona, California, the city with the lowest priced houses in the United States is located less than 100 miles from Death Valley, where the highest temperature ever recorded in the U.S. was set on July 10, 1913. On that day, the temperature in Death Valley reached 134 F. Trona is located in the Mojave Desert on the edge of a dry lake bed called Searless Lake, where a chemical manufacturing plant processes soda ash, potash, and other chemicals from wells that pump slurry from below the dry lake bed into the processing facility. Trona has a population of 1,885, as of the 2005 census, and is known for it's isolation and desolation. The local high school has the only dirt football field in the contiguous United States. (Some schools in Alaska also play on dirt fields.) The little desert town of Trona was the "shopping center" for the infamous Manson family in 1969. Charlie Manson and his so-called "family" lived in the mountains behind Trona, near the ghost town of Ballarat, and visited Trona when they needed supplies. Trona's "claim to fame" are the Trona Pinnacles, the largest collection of tufa towers in the United States. Tufa is a type of calcium carbonate called travertine, that was formed by underground freshwater springs discharging into the prehistoric salt lake.
