Autogenous grinding is gaining in popularity, as the grinding media costs are much less, and this process does not produce as much slime or fines as traditional rod and ball mills. Autogenous mills can handle both wet and dry operations. In some applications that require the grinding of minerals, such as talc, asbestos, and mica, dry semi ...

An autogenous or semiautogenous circuit, as the name implies, uses the ore itself to assist in the grinding process. In this type of circuit, the ore must be competent so large chunks of ore can be used to grind smaller chunks of ore. https://

Size reduction occurs through a primary crusher followed by semi-autogenous grinding (SAG). Large rocks are screened from the overflow and are sent through a pebble crusher, which recirculates the ore back to the SAG mill. The smaller material after SAG milling is …

The AG mill (autogenous grinding mill) is a medium-free grinding machine. In order to improve the processing capacity, 2% -3% steel balls can be added (also known as semi autogenous grinding mill or SAG mill). Raw ore or coarse crushed ore from the mine can be directly fed into the AG mill (SAG mill) for grinding.

Semi Autogenous Grinding Mill an overview. As mined ore is typically less than 0.25 m in size. It is ground to a particle size of 80% passing 100 μm in a semi-autogenous grinding mill then sent on to leaching using sulfuric acid and sulfur dioxide under atmospheric conditions. A schematic flowsheet of this part of the process is shown in ...

The feed material is lifted by the shell lining of the mill during rotation. Because of the gravity the material falls down and breaks as a result of the material impact. If the material is very hard or if the crushing is to be accelerated, grinding media can be added to the autogenous mill. In this case we speak of semi-autogenous mills.

Semi-autogenous grinding (SAG) and autogenous grinding mills are used for grinding large chunks of materials into smaller pieces which can be later used for processing. Such mills are used in the primary stage of grinding process where pieces of raw materials need to be grounded for further processing or sorting.

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.

Over the years the design and operation of single stage autogenous and semi autogenous grinding mills has been a rather hit and miss affair, with some great successes and some dismal failures, with the majority of installation somewhere between. Yet the simplicity, low capital and seemingly simple operation make this a circuit of choice for many.

Mills that grind hard ores with fracture characteristics that do not lend themselves to fully autogenous milling are charged with a small amount of steel balls to assist in the size reduction. These are known as semi-autogenous grinding (SAG) mills. In the mining industry all of these types of mills are in use.

Semi-autogenous grinding uses a minimal ball charge in the range of 6-15% while autogenous grinding uses ore only. SAG and AG Mills operate by lifting ore/grinding media and dropping it on the operating bed of the mill charge.

SAG mills (semi-autogenous milling) is a type of grinding carried out with a small amount of ball charge and with the help of bigger parts crumbling the smaller parts of ore. In addition to being preferred in gold, copper, platinum and silver mines, SAG MILLS are preferred in mines such as lead, zinc, alumina and nickel.
