Comparison of HPGRBall Mill and HPGRStirred Mill Circuits to the existing AG/SAG MillBall Mill Circuits Abstract In the past 20 years, the energyefficient comminution technologies, including high pressure grinding rolls (HPGR) and high speed stirred mill, have been developed and adopted in the hardrock mining operation in order to reduce
AG and SAG mills are now the primary unit operation for the majority of large grinding circuits, and form the basis for a variety of circuit configurations. SAG circuits are common in the industry based on: High singleline capacities (leading to capital efficiency) The ability to mill a broad range of ore types in various circuit configurations, with reduced numbers of unit operations (and a
TO DETERMINE WORK INDEX FOR HIGH PRESSURE . GRINDING ROLLS . ABSTRACT. The use of High Pressure Grinding Rolls is gaining significant interest as a replacement for SAG milling in the . comminution of hard rock ores because of the potential for reduced costs in terms of energy and grinding ball consumption.
The development of the Los Bronces mine affords the opportunity to assess the use of High Pressure Grinding Rolls as a viable alternative to a SAG mill for ball mill feed preparation. The high pressure grinding rolls (HPGR) is a relatively new comminution device that offers realistic potential in dramatically reducing comminution energy requirements. As such, it is viewed as an alternative to the existing, less
A#215;b, the slope at the origin of a t 10 versus E CS chart describing a dropweight test. Mia, the coarse size class grindability measurement in a Morrell Mi equation. Related indices are Mic for crushers and Mih for high pressure grinding rolls. Mia = #215; (A#215;b) [based on reinterpretation of Doll, 2016]
In the past 20 years, the energyefficient comminution technologies, including high pressure grinding rolls (HPGR) and high speed stirred mill, have been developed and adopted in the hardrock mining operation in order to reduce the energy consumption and improve the process performance.
This expansion was accomplished via the installation of secondary and high pressure grinding rolls (HPGR) crushing of the ore, with the semiautogenous grinding (SAG) mill receiving a combination of primary, secondary and HPGR crushed feed. This design, criteria and rationale for selection was presented at the SAG Conference 2011.
For grinding to a P80 of 160 m, the HPGRball mill circuit required 21% less energy than the SABC circuit. The main savings result from the lower energy required by the HPGR as compared to the SAG mill. However, an additional secondary crusher and conveyer system

High Pressure Grinding Rolls (HPGR) POWERBASED EQUATIONS General The approach divides comminution equipment into three categories: Tumbling mills, eg AG, SAG, rod and ball mills Conventional reciprocating crushers, eg jaw, gyratory and cone HPGRs Tumbling mills are described using 2 indices: M ia and M ib
Aug 19, 2019#0183;#32;HPGR wear vs conventional mills. Ball, SAG and rod mills all require their grinding media to be regularly replaced, unlike a HPGR. High Pressure Grinding Rolls have lower maintenance overheads than ball and rod mills, primarily because the grinding media in conventional mills needs to be replaced on a more regular basis.
Over the past several years, the combination of higher energy and steel costs and the recent commercial deployment of highpressure grinding rolls (HPGR) technology in hard rock mining have led many multinational mining companies to evaluate the suitability of HPGR technology for their particular comminution circuits. HPGR technology is perceived to require a higher capital investment while
It is a combination of improved technology, reduced fine grind requirements and maintenance benefits that led to Los Andes Copper replacing the SAG and ball mill crushing circuit proposed in its Vizcachitas coppermolybdenum project preliminary economic assessment (PEA), with a threestage crushing circuit that uses high pressure grinding roll (HPGR) technology in the tertiary crushing stage
High pressure grinding roll circuit, assumes operating in closed circuit with a screen: GMSG, 2016. Ball mill circuit: GMSG, 2016. Discussion. This model requires that the product of the secondary crusher and HPGR be coarser than 750 #181;m. This is reasonable as no HPGR circuit operates anywhere near that size range (as of 2020).
The following paper extends this approach to encompass jaw, gyratory and cone crushers as well as High Pressure Grinding Rolls (HPGR). The technique is applied to three different comminution circuits and their overall specific energies are compared. All of the calculations involved are described in
two stage crush, ball mill, Pajingo. a crushing circuit including high pressure grinding rolls (HPGR) at Argyle Diamond Mine. Recent feasibility studies for the Boddington Expansion Project have considered the use of HPGR for hard rock multistage crushing and ball mill circuits at high tonnage rates (Parker et al, 2001).

High pressure grinding rolls (HPGR) are used for size reduction or rocks and ores. They compress the feed material between two rotating rollers, one of which is in a fixed position and another roller that is floating. The two rotating rollers generate such a high pressure that it grinds the feed material to the desired smaller grain size.
and SAG mill circuits in hard ore applications by P. Rosario* and R. Hall Synopsis The application of high pressure grinding rolls (HPGR) has been growing in the mining industry for the last 10 to 15 years. The major benefits supporting this trend are better energy efficiency, improved grinding capacity, and higher metal recovery in
High Pressure Grinding Rolls (HPGR) is a mature technology that is proven to reduce capital and operating costs in full scale plants when compared to other comminution technologies. Read more SGS comminution experts have developed a simple testing methodology to avoid some of the difficulties associated with using HPGR.
Typical energy savings of 1020% can be expected when installing HPGR vs. a SAG mill. Wipf (2005) showed why conventional Bond Work index tests on HPGR product is likely to under estimate the energy savings that can be achieved by installing HPGR. Energy efficiency of HPGR is, however, orespecific.
The wear parts within our High Pressure Grinding Roll are longlasting, but also very easy to replace when they do wear down. Up to 2030% reduced energy consumption Energy efficiency is key to running a profitable operation, so saving 20 to 30% could pay huge dividends.
