The SAG mill was originally operating in a ball mill duty and it has a low aspect ratio (diameter/length) which changes its operation relative to typical high aspect mills (Powell, Morrell and ...
Single stage SAG Mills are very beneficial in reducing CAPEX for plants with a staged throughput approach. When future tonnage is to be increased, the SAG Mill can feed downstream ball milling to boost capacity. Fuller-Traylor SAG/AG Mills range in size from 4.3m through 12.2m in diameter with powers as high as 28,000 kW.
Semi-autogenous grinding mills (SAG mills) are tumbling mills that most commonly have a shell diameter-to-length ratio of around two. With this high aspect ratio, SAG mills generate both thrown and cascading ball-milling actions with shell linings shaped to lift and to throw alloy steel grinding balls of up to 150 mm (6 in.) in diameter. These

The minus 152 mm (-6 in) product is conveyed onto a 29,940 Mt (33,000 st) crushed ore stockpile, reclaimed by three vibrating feeders, and then conveyed to the SAG feed chute at a targeted rate of 136 Mt/hr (150 st/hr). The control strategy for the SAG mill is fairly basic. Parameters which can be adjusted are feed tons per hour and mill speed.
Methods to Estimate AG/SAG Mill Grinding Power Requirements. (1) Using the results of SMC data. (2) Using SAG Power Index (SPI) data. (3) Using the 1989 Barratt method updated on Alex Doll's Web site (February 16, 2015) (3) Using Don Burgess' method (11th Mill Operators Conference 2012) They seem to give very different predictions for ...
In this study, the relationship between acoustic emissions and hardness of different rock types (model quartz, model calcite, and real iron ore) coupled with binary mix ratios of model quartz and iron ore (1:3, 1:1 and 3:1) was investigated in a laboratory-based AG/SAG mill. The acoustic emission response and sensitivity of the mill were ...
Abstract. Maintaining the work balance between the primary SAG mill and secondary ball mill (s) is an overlooked bottleneck, and thus opportunity, in an increasing number of circuits worldwide. As ...
The single stage SAG/AG milling option is ideal for starter projects with significant exploration and expansion potential. Currently a number of the largest SAG mills designed are installed in single stage configuration. This paper discusses the challenges associated with the process design of single stage SAG/AG milling circuits, the design ...

A SAG mill has the advantages of high operation rate, large output, and large crushing ratio, which makes SAG mills have the characteristics of short process time, low management cost, and suitability for large-scale production compared to other mills.
The minus 152 mm (-6 in) product is conveyed onto a 29,940 Mt (33,000 st) crushed ore stockpile, reclaimed by three vibrating …
The operations of AG/SAG mills are known to be sensitive to the changes in feed particle size distributions presented to the mill [].The variation of feed particle size significantly affects the overall process control, product quality, and economic performance of the mill [2,3,4].Poor product quality from the AG/SAG mill poses significant challenges …
Ball mill:Ball mills are the most widely used one. Rod mill:The rod mill has the highest efficiency when the feed size is <30mm and the discharge size is about 3mm with uniform particle size and light overcrushing phenomenon. SAG mill:When the weight of the SAG mill is more than 75%, … See more
This paper will show that by using best practices, design tonnage can be achieved in SAG milling circuits at start-up with no added capital being required, and that SAG technology …

Abstract. Towards the development of an improved and more efficient online monitoring system in an industrial AG/SAG grinding mill, the present study employs a laboratory-based AG/SAG mill and acoustic sensor to investigate the acoustic characteristics of different mill operating conditions. Specifically, mill operating conditions …
the correct power required to grind ore in a SAG mill, by developing ore hardness variability functions for the ore body to be mined. This paper describes the next …
SAG mills respond well to a bi-modal feed, as reported in the work of Putland, Siddall and ... This inefficiency can be addressed by adding another stage of crushing to reduce this top-
SAG mill power consumption (Pc) in kW, in 4 grinding circuits (GC1 to GC4) at different % of the fresh feed in the size range −6″ +1″ (−152 +25 mm). It is important to notice that the behaviour shown in Fig. 4 is affected by the dependence of the power consumption on the mill sizes. This fact will be addressed later on in this paper. 3.
This deficiency is addressed below. ... the SAG mill and pebble recycle stream. Based on experience and the energy curve database, a typical primary crusher and the SAG mill can be assumed 1,000 m apart, consuming about 0.44 kWh/t in conveying power. Another 250 m of conveying can be assumed to be required for the pebble
in a single stage SAG mill. Cyclones work best when the cyclone feed size is limited to 5 mm top size, as noted above when referring to screen selection. The product size is also a function of liberation and downstream requirements. SAG Mill ore hardness kWh/t: Energy required to grind an ore from F80 of 152 mm to T80 of 1.7 mm.
