Grinding throughput on a gold mill
Industrial engagement · published in a trade magazine
Problem
Grinding is the largest energy consumer on a mill. Setpoint drift and harder, lower-grade ore make it difficult to hold throughput and particle size at the same time.
Method
Two-year collaboration with the plant process-engineering team. Controlled 25-day trial from 10 January 2024 to 5 February 2024. Modes alternated every 48 hours. Only periods with at least 85% active hours were compared — 265 hours in each mode.
Measured result
+6% throughput (435 t/h vs 412 t/h). 115,347 tonnes processed vs 109,079 tonnes. Particle size (p80) held. Energy intensity (kWh/t) stayed essentially unchanged. Extrapolated full-year effect at this plant: about 2,694 additional ounces of gold, about US$781,000 incremental annual profit net of all-in sustaining cost.
