A pilot-scale HPGR with a roll diameter of 300mm, a roll length of 150mm, and powered by two 15kW motors was used for the test program. The HPGR is equipped with pressure, gap, speed and torque sensors. A bin over the HPGR helps maintain choke feeding conditions. The pilot-scale HPGR circuit is shown in Figure 1.
o HPGR was expected to consume less energy per tonne of ball mill feed compared with conventional solutions o It was also expected that ball mill specific energy consumption would be lower (compared with conventional solutions), this resulting from incipient cracks present in BM feed particles • High mechanical and process availability
Comparative pilot scale ball mill tests were performed on all three ore types. Batch flotation tests were then performed on selected HPGR samples to determine the effects on PGM recovery. In order to determine the benefits of the HPGR in terms of energy consumption, throughput and PGM recovery, ball mill tests were also performed as a comparison.
HPGR and ball mill circuit. This is a highly experimental model. Use at your own risk! The high pressure grinding roll (HPGR) and ball mill circuit can be thought of as a variation on the classical single stage ball mill (SSBM) circuit with the final stage of cone crushing replaced by an HPGR.

HPGR wear vs conventional mills. Ball, SAG and rod mills all require their grinding media to be regularly replaced, unlike a HPGR. High Pressure Grinding Rolls have lower maintenance overheads than ball and rod mills, primarily because the grinding media in conventional mills needs to be replaced on a more regular basis.
The work indexes of ball mill by HPGR are lower than that by jaw crusher. As the target particle decreases, the Bond work index of ball mill of the crushed product by HPGR increases faster than ...
Fig. 4 shows the final mass-water recovery for the flotation tests performed on the HPGR and ball mill products for the (a) Merensky and (b) UG2 platinum ores. The relationship between mass and water recovery is a good indication of the amount of floating material obtained irrespective of the total water recovered ( Wiese et al., 2006 ).
The result of on-size pellets was greatly improved by HPGR compared to ball mill grinding. The results of BSA supported a relevant increase in the percentage of pellets between 10 and 16 mm when compared to the one obtained with ball-milled/HPGR ore blend (72%), at the bentonite dosage evaluated.
