Mine to mill is a process for optimisation of mining and processing recovery and costs. The choice of either selective mining or bulk mining techniques is a major consideration, however evaluations rarely undertake careful consideration of Mining Recovery and Mining Dilution in the context of mine to mill optimisation.

Say a copper mine produced 1Mt of metal in 1999 at 90% recovery. The remaining 10% of copper, around 111kt, went to tailings. If the average copper price in 1999 was US1,500/tonne then that 10% represented US million of metal. Fast forward 20 years and at today's price, US5,842/tonne, if that material could be reprocessed and an extra ...

R = 100 c (ft)/f (ct) Where: c = Assay of Concentrate f = Assay of Feed t = Assay of Tailing Using this equation, let us calculate percent recovery for the situation where copper heads are %, and the concentrate assays 30% copper. The tailing is actually % copper, but due to an error in sampling and assaying is thought to be % copper.

The oxide float tails and a large proportion of the mixed float tails are then treated by atmospheric leaching to extract copper from the remaining copperhosting minerals, which include cuprite, malachite, chrysocolla, and delafossite. Some native copper is recovered by flotation and some of it is recovered by leaching.

Initial copper recovery for the samples from both the panels as a function of particle size is presented in Figure 2. With increase in grind size from 150 µm to 250 µm, a substantial decrease in the copper recovery was observed for the NOW sample. This is due to a decrease in the surface liberation of copper minerals beyond 150 µm.

Sag mills in the gold and copper operations would vary from 6% 15% and are normally grate discharge types in most cases the densities of the slurry in the mill is over 65% and that goes for ball mills also. Off course you have a upper limit or the balls will "float" out. Higher densities allow better grind and increase residence time in the mill.
