These mills are used as industrial mining equipment to perform tasks such as processing, crushing, separating and locating of precious metals from mined coal. Precious metal industries such as gold, platinum, silver and copper use AG and SAG mills extensively. Other metals such as lead, nickel and zinc also are extracted using AG and SAG mills.

SAG mills are typically operated with feed water and ore entering through a feed trunnion and into the mill shell, where breakage occurs. Then, when the material has been sufficiently comminuted, it flows through the grate as slurry and pebbles. This

SAG milling can be optimised to achieve maximum breakage and throughput (or any other number of objectives). The relationships between the key variables are highly non-linear and shift as the ore hardness, steel load and liner conditions change. Traditional and basic control and modelling techniques are therefore not veryfective.

Mill Power Draw. The motor power draw required to turn a mill from rest to the operating speed includes the energy required for the initial starting torque and mechanical arrangements to rotate the mill.
