A well-designed gold processing plant integrates crushing, grinding, and sand-making equipment to maximize ore recovery. The core of such layouts often includes jaw crushers, cone crushers, vertical shaft impactors (VSIs), and screening systems tailored for abrasive gold-bearing ores.
| Equipment | Model | Capacity (t/h) | Power (kW) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Jaw Crusher | PE-600×900 | 50-120 | 75 |
| Cone Crusher | HPT-200 | 90-250 | 160 |
| VSI Sand Maker | S8-1145 | 60-280 | 250×2 |
| Vibrating Screen | 3YK2160 | 80-500 | 30×2 |
Primary crushing with jaw crushers reduces ore to ≤150mm. Secondary cone crushers further crush to ≤30mm, while VSIs shape particles into high-quality sand (<5mm) for leaching efficiency. Screens classify materials for recirculation or final stockpiling.
– Q: How to reduce VSI wear?
A: Use tungsten carbide tips and maintain feed size below 40mm.
– Q: Optimal screen mesh for gold sand?
A: 3-layer screens (5mm/10mm/20mm) balance productivity and grading.
– Q: Dust control measures?
A: Install water sprays at transfer points + bag filters on crushers.
