Comminution circuits for gold ore processing ScienceDirect
2005-1-1 Since, semi-autogenous grinding (SAG) ball-mill circuits represent the single largest type of gold milling comminution circuits, the chapter focuses on SAG. At mines, where ore has become more competent during the life of the mine (and ore rarely gets softer as the mines go deeper) or at operations, where the SAG mill was undersized during
Comminution Circuits for Gold Ore Processing
2016-1-1 Amelunxen et al. (2011) captured this impact well, and converted this variability to NPV estimates relative to an SAG mill circuit (assuming that the SAG was designed based on median ore hardness). Sizing of the secondary milling circuit needs to consider this variability in comminution response in primary milling.

AG/SAG mills are normally used to grind run-off-mine ore or primary crusher product. Wet grinding in an AG/SAG mill is accomplished in a slurry of 50 to 80 percent solids. 2D and 3D simulations of particles in a SAG Mill
Milling of Amenable Gold Ores SpringerLink
The objective of milling gold ores is to extract the gold for the highest financial return. To recover the maximum amount of gold, the ore must be finely ground in order to liberate the gold particles for gravity separation and/or chemical extraction.

MILLING CONTROL & OPTIMISATION
2012-2-7 ore treated was very difficult to mill. In the first two days, the mill experienced numerous power dips (overloads), and on at least seven occasions the feed to the mill had to be completely stopped to grind the mill out. Also, the mill load varied in the range of 125 to 165 tons. These disturbances propagated throughout the milling circuit and
Throughput Optimisation in Milling Circuits Process IQ
Each milling circuit is unique, and as such the goals and most optimal control strategy might differ for individual cases. Process IQ is an expert in implementing control systems for SAG and Ball milling circuits, making use of advanced stabilisation and optimisation strategies developed by Mintek.
