1. OUVERTURE ENTRAÎNÉE PAR POINT DE DOULEUR

Gérez-vous une opération de traitement de l'or où les taux de production et de récupération sont sous pression constante ?? The challenges of hard rock gold liberation are significant. Many operations face high perton processing costs due to inefficient particle size reduction, excessive energy consumption from outdated crushing methods, and unplanned downtime from equipment not built for continuous, service abrasif. En outre, inconsistent grind size can directly compromise cyanidation or gravity recovery efficiency, leaving valuable material in the tailings.

Vivez-vous:
Coût opérationnel élevé: Energyintensive primary crushing that creates excessive fines before milling even begins?
Recruitment & Retention Issues: Difficulty finding and keeping skilled personnel to run and maintain complex, temperamental milling circuits?
Libération incohérente: Variable ore hardness leading to poor control over final grind size and suboptimal gold recovery?
Frequent Maintenance Stops: Unplanned breakdowns of undersized or improperly specified equipment halting your entire processing line?

The right stamp mill for gold mining addresses these core issues by providing a robust, mechanically simple, and highly effective solution for coarse gold liberation and primary ore reduction.

2. APERÇU DU PRODUIT: Moulin à timbres en or robuste

A modern gold stamp mill is a specialized piece of mineral processing equipment designed for the coarse crushing and preliminary liberation of goldbearing quartz rock. Il fonctionne sur le principe du largage répétitif de poids lourds (timbres) sur du minerai introduit dans une boîte à mortier.

Flux de travail opérationnel:
1. Présentation du flux: Runofmine (ROM) or primarycrushed quartz ore is fed into a steel or cast iron mortar box.
2. Percussions mécaniques: Powered by a central camshaft, multiple heavy steel stamps (5002000 livres chacun) are lifted in sequence and dropped onto the ore.
3. Réduction des particules & Fusion: The repeated impact fractures the rock. Optionally, mercury can be introduced in the mortar box to form a gold amalgam during crushing.
4. Décharge de boue: Crushed material is washed through a fine screen at the mortar box discharge with a continuous water flow, créer une bouillie pour un traitement ultérieur (par ex., tableaux de concentrations, alimentation pour cyanuration).

Champ d'application & Limites:
Idéal pour: Small to mediumscale operations targeting coarse freemilling gold, historical mine restarts, remote sites with limited technical labor, and operations where simplicity and reliability are paramount.
Limites: Less energyefficient than ball mills for fine grinding (<100 engrener). Not suitable for refractory ores requiring ultrafine liberation. Amalgamation practices require strict environmental and safety controls.
