Gold Mining Machines and Sandstone Crushing Plants in South Africa

South Africa’s mining sector demands robust crushing and screening solutions for gold ore processing and aggregate production. Leading manufacturers offer tailored equipment for high-capacity operations, combining jaw crushers, cone crushers, VSI impactors, and vibrating screens to optimize yield.

Core Equipment for Gold & Aggregate Processing

1. Primary Jaw Crusher
– Model: JC120 (1200×850mm feed opening)
– Capacity: 150–350 TPH
– Power: 110 kW

2. Secondary Cone Crusher
– Model: HCC36 (Fine/Medium chamber)
– Max Feed: 185mm
– Output: 45–180 TPH

3. Tertiary VSI Crusher (for shaped aggregates)
– Rotor Speed: 1,500–2,200 rpm
– Throughput: 60–400 TPH

Typical Sandstone Production Line Configuration

Raw ore → Vibrating Grizzly Feeder → Jaw Crusher (Primary) → Cone Crusher (Secondary) → VSI Crusher (Tertiary shaping) → Vibrating Screen → Finished Aggregates (0–5mm, 5–10mm, 10–20mm).

FAQ

Q1: What’s the lifespan of crusher wear parts?

A1: Manganese jaws last ~6 months in granite; concave/mantle ~8 months at 12hr/day operation.

Q2: Can one plant handle both gold ore and aggregates?

A2: Yes, with modular designs—replace cone crushers with ball mills for gold grinding circuits.

Project Case: Limpopo 250TPH Plant

Client processed auriferous quartzite and produced construction sand simultaneously. Configuration included JC98 jaw crusher + HST315 cone + 3YK3070 screen. Achieved gold recovery rate of 92% while yielding 800T/day ASTM-certified sand.
