operation of SAG mills. SAG mills are currently the technology of choice in hard rock milling operations for reducing primary-crushed ore to ball mill feed. In recent years, the trend has been towards larger-sized SAG mills with diameters of 10.4 m (34 ft) and above, with the largest being 12.2 m (40 ft) in

Keys to best practice comminution

In this example the SAGDesign (SDT) ore hardness is 10 kWh/t (to grind the ore from F 80 152 mm to T 80 1.7 mm) and the SAG ground Bond Ball Mill Work Index is 15 kWh/t. Table 2 shows alternate equipment selections that will produce 471 t/h, (10,400 t/d and 3.8 million tonnes per annum) at 92% availability.

The analysis is expanded to consider the case where stockpiles are

AG

Therefore select a mill to draw at least 5440 Hp at the pinionshaft. Based upon the pilot plant test results, the volumetric loading for the mill can be determined. Normally, autogenous and semi-autogenous mills are selected for a 30% volumetric loading; however, with soft ore, and conglomerates it is not always possible to build up a 30% …

Research on performance of a laboratory-scale SAG mill …

The performance and particle behavior of the SAG mill are greatly affected by rock shape [7, 9, 10, 18, 23, 24], DEM simulation with irregular rock particles can better reproduce the real working condition of the SAG mill.In this paper, four shapes of rock particles are adopted, and their shapes are spherical, cylindrical, cubic, and ellipsoid respectively.

(PDF) Multi-component AG/SAG mill model

The JKMRC has been studying and modelling industrial AG and SAG mills for over 40 years, but the ability to simulate the effects of blending hard and soft components on mill performance remains ...

Autogenous Grinding & Semi Autogenous Grinding …

b. Intermediate autogenous mills (or intermediate pebble mills) which process a fine crushed product (minus 5/8″ to minus 1″) obtained from an intermediate crushing plant. The grinding media in these mills are rock pebbles of suitable size (3″ to 6″) screened out of the intermediate crushing circuit.

Operation Analysis of a SAG Mill under Different …

A SAG mill grinds through the impact of rock and grinding media, while an autogenous mill grinds only through the impact of rock. An autogenous mill is more suitable for smaller particle size requirements, while a SAG mill is more suitable for the roughing process and is a relatively mature process. A SAG mill has advantages,
