The breakage rate distributions are affected by a number of operating conditions. Morrell and Morrison (1996) modelled the effect of ball charge, mill filling, feed size distribution and mill speed on each breakage rate. The resulting 5 empirical equations are embedded in the current JKSimMet Variable Rates AG/SAG
Total grinding power consumption decreases and SAG mill capacity increases significantly. Later tests, with other types of ore, have shown lesser differences between those size distributions. However, the effects on power consumption and mill capacity have been the same, confirming the strong effect of small variations in the ultrafines production.
xG is the mill feed d80, not the circuit feed. For SAG mill, the xG value has to be determined by scalping of the full size distribution. The particles larger than the minimum pebble size (given by the pebble extraction grate opening) has to be excluded from the distribution to calculate the top ball size!
Particle Size Distribution Effects that Should be Considered when Performing Flotation Geometallurgical Testing K C Runge1,2, E Tabosa3 and A Jankovic4 ABSTRACT Flotation recovery in geometallurgical modelling is usually predicted based on relationships developed from batch flotation testing of different ore types. These batch flotation tests are usually performed at a constant set of
Thus, it follows that the expenditure of equal amounts of work produce practically identical products from the same feed, regardless of the density of the grinding media.) When the ball charge is fixed, variation of the quantity of ore in the mill brings about no significant selective grinding between the different sizes of material in the feed.

Some oper-ations have recognised an opportunity in the relationship between feed size and mill performance and manipulate feed size to obtain
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 comminution survey has clearly shown that the effect of steel in the mill and ball size greatly influences the progressive grinding of ‘critical size’ material, and that the role of the pebble crusher in the SAG circuit should not be underestimated on this type of ore.

GEOMETALLURGY APPLIED IN COMMINUTION TO MINIMIZE DESIGN RISKS ABSTRACT Every comminution testwork program should include the appropriate ore characterisation tests to describe the variability of ore breakage properties, but there are several ways to interpret the data and define the design criteria for a project. The most simplistic way is to

The design of the ore stockpiling and conveying system contributes to fluctuating size distribution with significant short-term segregation occurring under certain operating situations. Depending on ore type and feed size distribution, each SAG mill will process between 700 and 3000
Highlights Ore effects on the product shape were studied in order to monitor breakage events in SAG mill. The quantitative shape properties were fitted well to the 3-parameter lognormal distribution. An increase in ore strength corresponds to a decrease in product size, angularity and elongation. By increasing ore hardness, the main breakage event changes from impact to

mill contents of an autogenous industrial mill was measured in terms of size and mineral distribution, during a survey conducted at LKAB operations in Sweden. The breakage and transport in AG/SAG mills was found to depend on the physical properties and proportion of the different components in the mill feed. Consequently, the overall performance of

The obtained data shows a non-linear trend between the measured mill throughput and the proportion of soft component in the feed, as well as the effect of fresh feed composition in mill product size distribution and load. Therefore, a new multi-component AG/SAG mill model structure was developed to account for these observed effects, and it was
