MODULE #5: FUNCTIONAL PERFOMANCE OF BALL MILLING

For any process, including ball mill circuits, we can say that output equals input multiplied by efficiency*. Output = Input x Efficiency In a ball mill circuit, the "output" can be defined as the production rate of fines of the circuit. As for any output, ball mill circuit output is a function of both its inputs and efficiencies.

Production of Gold

The Ball Mill, B-101, grinds the 0.25" ore until it is in the range of 160 microns. The ore leaving the ball mill is sent to six hydrocyclones that separate the larger particles from the smaller particles. The top stream leaving the cyclone is 75% of the feed into it. This top product is 160 microns or less.
