2021-10-5 This paper presents an assessment and trade-off study of high-pressure grinding rolls (HPGR)-based vs. autogenous grinding (AG)-based milling options for a 65 kt/d copper/gold project. The study relied on pilot trials to determine the applicability of potential single-stage (SS) AG flowsheet options and their energy efficiency.

Coarse Grind – Coarser than 80% passing 106 µm. If determined to be reasonably power-efficient, single stage SAG milling is likely to be the most profitable grinding circuit design. 2.

Read More2021-3-15 Adoption of autogenous or semi-autogenous grinding (AG/SAG) would lead to a significant simplification alternative to such plants. Within the scope of AG/SAG grinding, several approaches can be used in size reduction. For instance, the mill may be operated in the absence of steel grinding media (AG) or with steel balls (SAG) (Gupta and Yan, 2016).

Traditionally, the process selection choice was between a conventional, well-tried, three-stage crushing circuit followed by ball-milling, or single-stage crushing followed by a Semi-Autogenous (SAG) mill and ball mill. The latter is preferred for wet sticky ores to minimize transfer point chute blockages ...
