Enduron® HPGR
For gold mines using carbon-in-leach (CIL) processes for recovery, we've found the best results are achieved with a HPGR performing tertiary grinding before a ball mill further reduces the product. In this role, the HPGR significantly uplifts the capacity of the circuit and provides flexibility both in dealing with feeds that a ball mill ...
Model:Morrell HPGR and ball mill - SAGMILLING
Ball mill circuit: GMSG, 2016. Discussion. This model requires that the product of the secondary crusher and HPGR be coarser than 750 µm. This is reasonable as no HPGR circuit operates anywhere near that size range (as of 2020). There is a minor correction required for open circuit secondary crushing (the 1.0 factor becomes 1.19).
