Although HPGR technology has been recognized since the late 1980s as a potential powerful tool for heap leaching, operational applications did not proceed until the most recent years. Today, at least four gold operations have implemented HPGR systems from three manufacturers (thyssenkrupp, KHD and FLS) into their crushing circuits.

ABSTRACT Heap leaching is a well-established extractive metallurgical technology enabling the economical processing of various kinds of low-grade ores, which could not otherwise be exploited. However, despite much progress since it was first applied in recent times, the process remains limited by low recoveries and long extraction times. It is …

HPGR to handle tough ores that do not lend themselves ideally to SAG milling. Fig 1. Growth in HPGR applications in diamond iron ore, copper and gold ore processing. Source: Knecht (2004) Baum (1997) and Baum et al. (1996, 1997) showed on the basis of photomicrograph and petrologic examinations of HPGR product grains that HPGR …

In addition to lower operational costs, the use of HPGR technology induced micro-cracking of the samples tested which enhanced cyanidation leach kinetics. Therefore, HPGR was selected over SAG milling in the comminution flowsheet. This paper summarizes the results from the comminution and cyanidation testwork program that led to the selection ...

The Piston Press Tests (PPTs) are capable of assessing the HPGR technology at the scoping, pre-economic analysis, and pre-feasibility stages of project development.
