Variable Speed SAG Mill 911 Metallurgist
The minus 152 mm (6 in) product is conveyed onto a 29,940 Mt (33,000 st) crushed ore stockpile, reclaimed by three vibrating feeders, and then conveyed to the SAG feed chute at a targeted rate of 136 Mt/hr (150 st/hr). The control strategy for the SAG mill is fairly basic. Parameters which can be adjusted are feed tons per hour and mill speed.
