a large effect on profitability. Mill operators have long used operating work indices to evaluate grinding circuit efficiency, with great utility. Operating work indices can be used to evaluate individual units in a conventional circuit or the overall performance of an autogenous-semiautogenous (AG-SAG)/ball mill circuit, but they are of

Semi-autogenous Outotec SAG mills, as they are often called, can accomplish the same size reduction work as two or three stages of crushing and screening. Often used in grinding at modern mineral processing plants, SAG mills reduce the material directly to the desired final size or prepare it for the following grinding stages.

Since the days of mandatory high cost pilot plant testing in 6 ft × 2 ft SAG mills autogenous griding/semi-autogenous grinding (AG/SAG), mill specifi c energy is now calculated by various empirical formulae and pilot testing carried out in small laboratory mills. Barratt (1989) described a method using Bond Indices than adding a single factor of 1.25 to arrive at the AG/SAG specifi c energy.

The semi-autogenous mill is a new type of grinding equipment with both crushing and grinding functions. It has the advantages of simple process flow, small investment, short construction cycle, and easy operation. It can directly grind raw materials or coarsely crushed materials to 0.074mm. The grinding ratio can reach 4000-5000, which is ten ...

Autogenous grinding is a process of grinding ore in a rotating cylinder, using large pieces of the same ore. Autogenous mills operate mechanically like ball mills; however, the media used for grinding differs. Simply put, in autogenous grinding, the media is also the material that is being ground, whereas in other milling methods steel or ...

It can, therefore, be concluded that autogenous grinding was not suitable with this particular gold ore, but semi-autogenous operation with about 8% ball charge was the preferred option. Based on these test results, a 6.7 m diameter × 2.1 m length SAG mill and a 3.3 m × 6.1 m ball mill were installed for commercial operation in closed circuit ...

Semi-Autogenous Grinding (SAG) is a method of grinding rock into fine powder whereby the grinding media consist of larger chunks of rocks and steel balls. A SAG mill is generally used as a primary or first stage grinding solution. SAG mill is a tumbling mill with a large rotating drum, is filled with ore, water, and steel grinding balls.
