Zambia’s gold mining industry relies on robust crushing and sand-making equipment to process ore efficiently. Key machinery includes jaw crushers, cone crushers, impact crushers, and sand washers, forming complete production lines for aggregate processing.

| Equipment | Model | Capacity (t/h) | Power (kW) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Jaw Crusher | PE600×900 | 50-160 | 75 |
| Cone Crusher | HPT300 | 120-350 | 315 |
| Impact Crusher | PF1315 | 100-280 | 220 |
| Sand Washer | XS3500 |

A typical Zambia gold mine processing line follows:
1. Primary crushing with jaw crusher
2. Secondary crushing via cone crusher
3. Tertiary shaping using impact crusher
4. Sand washing and grading
