The purpose of the primary crusher is to reduce the ROM ore to a size amenable for feeding the secondary crusher or the SAG mill grinding circuit. The ratio of reduction through a primary crusher can be up to about 8:1. Feed: ROM up to m. Product: 300mm (for transport) to 200mm (for SAG mill) Feed Rate:

water usage. The crushed ore is transferred to a semiautogenous (SAG) mill or ball mill where the ore is further reduced in size. Water is added to the ball mill, in which a slurry that usually contains from about 20 to 55 percent solids is produced (Singh, 2010; International Mining, 2011) (see fig. 2). The
Principle of SAG Mill operation SAG mill. SAG is an acronym for semiautogenous grinding. SAG mills are autogenous mills that also use grinding balls like a ball mill. A SAG mill is usually a primary or first stage grinder. SAG mills use a ball charge of 8 to 21%. The largest SAG mill is 42' () in diameter, powered by a 28 MW (38,000 HP ...
The Madsen gold project is located in the Red Lake district of northwestern Ontario, approximately 440km northwest of Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada. Considered to be one of the highestgrade, undeveloped gold projects in the world, the mine is anticipated to recover 911,497oz of gold. Pure Gold Mining purchased the historic Madsen gold mine in ...
SAG mill breakdowns are costly events for producers. As an example, early in 2006, Cia.

Figure 2 Singlestage SAG Mill Grinding Circuit Flowsheet . The circuit feedrate of 125 tph to 150 tph was primary crushed to an F80 size of between 105 mm and 120 mm and the SAG mill slowed down and charged with a 7% (by volume, v/v) load of 125 mm balls. The smaller diameter CAVEX 400 cyclones produced an overflow P80 size of 90 µm to ...
The origins of the RoM mill also drove the philosophy of single stage grinding to final product, nominally 75% to 80% passing 751lm. Much of the early AG/SAG model development work at the JKMRC was based on Australian and North American style mills and operations and hence had not been validated under typical South African RoM mill conditions.
Single stage AG/SAG milling AG/SAG mills as a primary grinding stage in a circuit with or without additional stages of comminution Inclusion of pebblecrushing circuits in the AG/SAG circuit Circuits above, but with feed preparation including two stages of crushing—typically referenced as precrushing
The crushed pebbles fall directly onto the SAG mill feed belt and return to the SAG mill. SAG mill product feeds two parallel ball mills of m× m (internal diameter×length), each with a MW twin pinion drive. The ball mills are operated at a ball charge volume of 3032% and % critical speed.
The singlestage autogenous grinding (AG) or semiautogenous grinding (SAG) mill is a lowcost option for milling relatively low tonnages.

SAG mill and two 26 ft ball mills, all made by Metso. The drive systems that enable the mills to operate at benchmark levels of reliability, efficiency and availability were made by ABB, whose solution comprises a MW gearless mill drive (GMD) for the SAG mill, and two 13 MW lowspeed dualpinion ringgeared mill drive (RMD) systems for the ...
This research is focused on the Phase I SABC milling circuit of the Wushan porphyry copper mine. Improvements to the existing circuit were targeted without any significant alterations to existing equipment or the SABC circuit. JKSimMet simulations were used to test various operating and design conditions to improve the comminution process.

Coarse Grind Coarser than 80% passing 106 m. If determined to be reasonably powerefficient, single stage SAG milling is likely to be the most profitable grinding circuit design. 2. Medium Grind 80% passing size between 106 and 75 m. To mill in single stage SAG configuration, the feed must be consistent, not too coarse or too fine.
