The life of the mine is a key element in the design of any crushing plant. Short-term mine lives (three to eight years) require a very careful approach to design, layout and construction. Since the crushing plant's structure and enclosure can represent the largest single cost element in a primary crushing plant, it is imperative to optimize ...
Mineral processing - Dewatering, Filtration, Separation: Concentrates and tailings produced by the methods outlined above must be dewatered in order to convert the pulps to a transportable state. In addition, the water can be recycled into the existing water circuits of the processing plant, greatly reducing the demand for expensive fresh water.
