The ability to model comminution techniques has been key in the mineral processing
industry and other industries where size reduction of rocks is a key focus. With the need for …

This paper explores the relationship between energy and the generation of minus 75 micron
material. Rittinger's law of comminution states that the energy input is proportional to the …

Low energy surface breakage has a high frequency of occurrence and thus plays a
significant role in grinding processes. Yet this superficial breakage is poorly understood …

Comminution energy accounts for 35% of the utilised energy in mining of copper and gold.
There exist potential economic and environmental benefits that can be realised by reducing …

Modelling the comminution process accurately is essential for successful optimisation of
current circuits as well as modelling and simulation of novel and complex circuits that are …

This paper benchmarks comminution circuit performance from various operational sites
against a novel testing method developed to measure practical minimum comminution …

An understanding of the fundamentals of different breakage mechanisms is critical for
successfully modelling comminution processes. Due to the high frequency of low energy …

With many of the world's richest ore deposits already depleted, deposits with complex
mineralogy, higher competence and lower grades are now being targeted and mining …

Comminution, which refers to the process of rock breakage, is an extremely energy-intensive
activity in mineral processing. It consumes approximately 37% of the total energy used in …
