A SAG mill is used to grind and crush large pieces of rock into smaller pieces of rock, gravel, or dust. It is commonly used in the mining industry. Q2. How does a SAG mill work? A SAG mill uses a combination of impact and attrition to grind the material. The grinding media in a SAG mill are larger than in a ball mill, and there are fewer of ...

The design of large mills has become increasingly more complicated as the size has increased and there is little doubt that without sophisticated design procedures such as the use of the Finite Element method the required factors of safety would make large mills prohibitively expensive. In the past the design of small mills, u…

INCREASING SAG MILL CAPACITY AT THE COPPER MOUNTAIN MINE THROUGH THE ADDITION OF A PRE-CRUSHING CIRCUIT. ABSTRACT. Copper Mountain's …

 — Adding another SAG mill to the two existing ones at the mill. A SAG or semi-autogenous mill uses steel ball and the ore itself to break up the rock into fine particles in order to separate the copper and gold from all the non-valuable constituents of the ore, or gangue. Before 2019, the mill could operate at 250 ktpd.

single stage SAG mill at Minera Yanacocha's Gold Mill facility located in northern Peru. The Gold Mill was commissioned in March 2008 with a 32' x 32' EGL, 16.5MW single stage SAG mill, to ...

 — The SAG mill had a 6–8% ball charge and the power consumption was 8 kWh/t, which agreed well with the expected value. 9.6. Problems. 9.1. In an SAG mill the dimensions of the mill were 9.75 m × 3.5 m and the specific gravities of the mineral and that of the balls charged were 4.1 and 7.9, respectively.

from its 30 ooot capacity stockpile by a single Nico 11.7m by 2.4m apron feeder. The minus 250mm feed is milled in a two-stage grinding circuit, being fed into a 9.7m diameter by 4.7m SAG mill at a rate of approximately 2000tph. SAG mill discharge is sized at 6mm by an Allis-challllers 3.7m by 8.5m low-head vibrating screen fitted with

Sossego mill processes 41,000 tons of copper ore per day and its design capacity is around 470,000 tons/year of copper concentrate. Figure 1 shows the process flowchart. The Sossego mill circuit ...

 — One example of this trend is the use of improved mill drive technologies, e.g., the use of gearless mill drives (for large SAG mills) or of large, geared drives with low synchronous motors and variable frequency drives. ... Integrating advanced sensors for real-time ore characterization and wear rate monitoring can further boost circuit ...

The filling rate of steel ball in the shell of the semi-autogenous mill is a main item to distinguish SAG mill and autogenous mill. In order to eliminate the impact of the accumulation of rock, the autogenous mill allows to add about 3% of the ball (Φ80 ~ Φ120), SAG mill steel ball filling is generally 8% ~ 12%, even up to 15%.

 — "Several new large copper and gold concentrators have been built and commissioned around the world in the past five to eight years. The success of the ramp-up from these very large concentrators has varied. CITIC SMCC Process Technology was engaged to assist some of these mines by gaining a better understanding of the factors …

Example of a Closed Circuit SAG Mill Cyclone Overflow and a Ball Mill ...

 — The installed power in the primary mill is generally much greater than in conventional circuits. Since the semiautogenous or autogenous mill is dependent at least in part, if not entirely, on the ore to grind itself, a small change in ore grinding characteristics can produce a relatively large change in the grinding capacity of the mill.

 — 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.

SAG Mill Dimensions: The SAG mill was designed for monzonite ore, with allowance in the mine schedule for reduced throughput when treating the harder volcanics. The latter forms -8% of the orebody and have the potential to reduce7 throughput by up to 30% if treated by themselves, while maintaining the same grinding circuit product size. Speed ...

 — How Overflow Type Ball Mill Works. Material Feed: The raw material is fed into the mill at one end and travels through the mill by rotation. The feed enters the mill at a specific rate, ensuring a controlled …

 — The advantage of the grid type ball mill is that the ore discharge speed is fast, it can reduce the over-crushing of ore, and at the same time it can increase the output per unit volume. 1. Large row of ore mouth design, stronger processing capacity for lithium ore, up to 160t/h; 2. Equipped with an automatic control system PLC, reducing labor costs, …

circuit by further crushing 35% of SAG mill fresh feed. Such figures would represent yearly additions of 8.3 kt in copper and 250 kg in gold productions.

Rely on our proven track record of AG and SAG Mill superiority. Since the early 1980s, we have been designing and manufacturing Semi Autogenous Mill (SAG Mill) and Autogenous Mill (AG Mill) under the Fuller-Traylor …

 — Frood-Stobie Mill could be shut down and only the dewatering and filtration facilities at Copper Cliff Mill would remain active. Pilot Plant Studies Bench scale tests and pilot plant campaigns were conducted to design a flowsheet and size equipment for a primary grinding circuit to handle 24,000 t.p.d.of ore.

A SAG mill of diameter 9.0 m and width 6.0 m was charged to 40% of the mill volume with ore of SG 3.2 when the porosity was 38%. With grinding time the ball load changed from 10% to 5% and the bed porosity to 12%.
