SAG mill make use of steel balls included with some large and hard rocks for grinding. These mills utilize the balls in making the large fragments of materials broken into pieces. The ball charge of a SAG mill is about 9% to 20%.This process takes place inside the large rotating drum of SAG mill which is filled with balls partially.

SAG Mill Operation. SAG mills operate differently from ball mills, which rely on the impact of balls to break down the material. SAG mills use a combination of impact and attrition to grind the material. The grinding media in a SAG mill are larger than in a ball mill, and there are fewer of them per ton of ore.

Ball mills, conversely, contain grinding media up to 50mm in diameter, occupying between 25% - 40% of mill chamber volume. To effectively reduce material size, each type of mill needs to generate different charge load actions, or the type of motion characterised by the mill's contents. SAG mills generate higher levels of impact reduction and ...

purposes, SAG mills utilise a combination of steel balls and coarse ore to achieve the desired discharge particle size [2]. An essential performance metric for a SAG mill is its throughput, which measures the volume of processed ore per hour [3]. SAG mill throughput maximisation stands as a critical priority, given its profound financial outcomes.
