Gold Mining Equipment Overview
Gold mining operations require specialized equipment for crushing, grinding, recovery and refining. The specific equipment depends on the ore characteristics and gold recovery method.
Crushing Equipment
Primary Crushing:
- Jaw crusher: Most common for gold ore primary crushing
- Gyratory crusher: For very large operations
Secondary/Tertiary Crushing:
- Cone crushers: Standard for secondary and tertiary crushing
- Impact crushers: For softer gold ores
Grinding Equipment
Common Configurations:
- Ball mill in closed circuit with cyclones
- SAB (SAG-Ball) circuit for harder ores
- Rod mills for pre-grinding
Gold Mining Equipment Requirements
Gold Recovery Equipment
Gravity Concentration:
- Knelson concentrators: For coarse gold recovery
- Jigs: For heavier materials
- Shaking tables: For fine gold
Leaching:
- CIL (Carbon-in-Leach) tanks
