The cumulative grinding rate for ball milling circuits, but equally applicable to any fine grinding circuit, is derived by Roberts . He showed that the amount of material ground through the various mesh sizes in a wet ball mill is proportional to the power provided by the ball charge and the cumulative percent plus size of each mesh size in the ...Web

fractions. The long residence time of the gold within the grinding circuit can cause some of the GRG to become non-gravity recoverable due to smearing on to grinding media, mill liners and gangue minerals. This effect is minor as more than 98% of the GRG entering the ball mill remains gravity recoverable after grinding (LaPlante, 2000).Web

The plant achieved its design rating within 1 month of operation, however, it did so at a finer grind size than that required by the design. A typical grind size of P80 = 75 p.m was usual for the circuit. The reason for this finer grind from the circuit as a whole was the finer product size distribution of the product from the SAG mill.Web
