SAG is an acronym for semi-autogenous grinding. SAG mills are autogenous mills that also use grinding balls like a ball mill. A SAG mill is usually a primary or first stage grinder. SAG mills use a ball charge of 8 to 21%. The largest SAG mill is 42' (12.8m) in diameter, powered by a 28 MW (38,000 HP) motor. A SAG mill with a 44' (13.4m ...

Autogenous Mill. Autogenous mill is a type of grinding equipment that crushes material by mutual impact, grinding and peeling effect among material grains. In 1880, cylindrical grinding mill was invented. In 1899, it was used at a gold mine. Since then, it was discovered that autogenous grinding of ore is possible.
An autogenous mill of ID 6.7. m and an effective grinding length of 2.1 m was fed with ore of SG 3.8 to 20% of its volume.. The mill was operated continuously 24 hours per day at 1200 t per day and 75% of the critical speed.The solids in the mill charge were at 80% solids. Estimate:1. The power consumption per tonne per day.

Semi-autogenous grinding uses a minimal ball charge in the range of 6-15% while autogenous grinding uses ore only. SAG and AG Mills operate by lifting ore/grinding media and dropping it on the operating bed of the mill charge. High impacts from lifting ore and media promote impact breakage which is the primary mechanism for size reduction …
