IN MILL FEED SIZE OP TIMISATION Adrian Dance, Senior Control Metallurgist Highland Valley Copper PO Box 1500, Logan Lake B.C. Canada V0K 1W0 [email protected] ABSTRACT As a part of its investigation into run-of-mine ore fragmentation, Highland Valley Copper discovered the role of primary crushing in the optimisation of mill feed size.
As for hard ore, multiple trade-off studies have reported the performance of HPGR- versus SAG-based processes, with energy savings of between 11% and 32% (Ballantyne et al., …
This paper describes the effect of grinding conditions on the flotation performance. Different media and mill construction materials were tested at bench scale aiming at evaluating the effects of the pulp electrochemical potential and the ... The major conclusions were that Salobo's copper ore is hard to treat mainly due to its high Bond …
The ball mill is a rotating cylindrical vessel with grinding media inside, which is responsible for breaking the ore particles. Grinding media play an important role in the comminution of mineral ores in these mills. This work reviews the application of balls in mineral processing as a function of the materials used to manufacture them and the …
This article concerns the issues of modeling and the optimizational approach for the performance of ore comminution circuits. A typical, multi-stage comminution circuit was analyzed with the high-pressure grinding rolls unit operating at a fine crushing stage. The final product of the circuit under investigation was, at the same time, a flotation feed …

1.1. Types of Copper and Properties. The copper most commonly used for sheet and strip applications complies with ASTM B370. It consists of 99.9 percent copper, and is available in six tempers designated by ASTM B370 as: 060 (soft), H00 (cold rolled), H01 (cold rolled, high yield), H02 (half hard), H03 (three quarter hard), and H04 (hard).
Copper processing is a complicated process that begins with mining of the ore (less than 1% copper) and ends with sheets of 99.99% pure copper called cathodes, which will ultimately be made into products for everyday use.The most common types of ore, copper oxide and copper sulfide, undergo two different processes, hydrometallurgy and …
