The final selection of the flow sheet was completed after DRA conducted a techno-economic study on four possible comminution circuits ranging from conventional crushing and ball milling to fully autogenous (AG) milling. The results from all the above mentioned work indicated that it is possible to treat the MMZ ore at the desired

Traditionally WGM has stockpiled and processed separate campaigns of open pit and underground ore. The ore is processed via a conventional semi-autonomous grinding (SAG) / ball circuit (SABC). The low aspect SAG mill operates in a closed circuit with two 20" cyclones, whilst the ball mill is also a closed circuit with a 10" cyclone cluster.

Semi-autogenous grinding is of interest of possible capital & operating cost savings over conventional crushing & grinding flow sheets. Semi-autogenous grinding (SAG) mill performance is influenced by ball charge, rock charge and feed properties.SAG mill throughput is sensitive to changes in the ore type and a collaborative effort, between ...

The designs of autogenous and semi-autogenous (SAG) grindings mills are described followed by the description of their methods of operation in grinding circuits involving crushers and ball mills. Methods of estimating SAG mill volumes, mill charges, feed size and power consumptions and optimum speeds of rotation during operation are described.

The treatment process flow includes primary crushing, semi-autogenous/ ball milling, flash flotation and conventional flotation, bio-oxidation and carbon in leach (CIL) gold recovery. Gravity Recoverable Gold (GRG) is recovered at the Mill and BIOX® Circuits via Knelson concentrators. MILLING AND FLOTATION

2.1. AUTOGENOUS (AG) AND SEMI AUTOGENOUS (SAG) MILL OPERATION Semi autogenous grinding is one of the most used processes for comminution. The process involves feeding rock particles and water into the grinding mill containing a fraction of steel balls usually below 10% and running at a fraction of its critical speed.
