JKTech's 4.0 Litre capacity Isa Mill is now available for fine grinding test programs. Contact JKTech's Laboratory Services Manager to discuss your requirements.
Capability
Using the IsaMill, JKTech can provide evaluations of:
|
- IsaMill grinding in comparison to other grinding methods
- the energy efficiency and consumption of various media types
- impact on mineral liberation using quantified mineralogy
- the effect of IsaMill grinding on flotation performance
- the effect of IsaMill grinding on leach performance
- the effect of IsaMill grinding on particle shape and relectance
- preliminary plant flow sheet design using IsaMilling |
Reporting
A brief one-page report is produced which details:
- Test conditions
- Media Consumption
- A 'signature plot' which relates Specific Energy (kWh/t) to product particle size (P80)
- Product size distribution data from each pass of the IsaMill |
Sample Requirements
A test program on the IsaMill requires 30 kg of -1mm ore. Coarser ore may be sent, however this may incur some sample preparation charges.
The client also needs to nominate the media to be used - if unusual media is specified, samples of this may need to be provided. Generally, Magotteaux's Keramax MT1 ceramic media, various River Sands or steel balls will be used.
The Isa Mill is a grinding technology based on high intensity stirred milling, using inert media that was developed for the processing of fine grained ore bodies. The IsaMill can reduce the energy requirements, and media and capital costs of fine grinding.
The patented Isa Mill is marketed by Xstrata Technology, based in Brisbane.
