Semi Autogenous Grinding Mill

A typical comminution circuit for Ni–Co sulfide ore is presented in Figure 2.2.7 [1]. 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.
