An apparatus is disclosed for mixing salt with a liquid to generate a salt slurry for spreading on a road surface for snow and ice control. The apparatus includes a chute having an inlet and an outlet, the inlet receiving therein the salt. The chute defines a passageway which is disposed between the inlet and the outlet. A first roller is disposed adjacent to the outlet of the chute, the first roller having an axis of rotation and a first and a second end. A second roller has a first and second extremity, the second roller being disposed adjacent to the outlet of the chute. The second roller has a rotational axis which is disposed parallel to the axis of rotation of the first roller. The rollers cooperate with each other so that the chute guides the salt between the rollers. An arrangement is provided for rotating the rollers relative to each other such that when the salt is guided between the rotating rollers, crushing of the salt is permitted. Also, a device is provided for selectively moving the axes of the rollers towards and away from each other such that when the rollers are rotated relative to each other, the crushing of the salt is controlled. A control device selectively controls a flow of the liquid into the chute so that the liquid mixes with the salt for generating the salt slurry. A rotatable spinner is disposed below the rollers for receiving and spreading the generated salt slurry on the road surface.
