Balls Cracking After SAG Reline (3 replies)
Please join and login to participate and leave a comment.
Good Evening Everyone. First time posting in the forum here!
We just recently relined our SAG mill and we have had some operational issues since starting back up. We have had a massive amount of filings ending up in the discharge magnet and I examined ball fragments from the magnet and it is not typical small round pieces of scat. It is though the balls are cleaving and breaking apart.
I believe the excessive amount of filings are due to operator error in underloading the mill but I am still uncertain about the ball fragments? A product of getting dropped out of the mill and readded?
I did the % volume calculations and It looks like only about a 1% difference so I don't think it's a matter of the mill being overcharged.
Any help or comments would be appreciated!
thanks,
