small scale gold production line China

Compact Gold Processing Line for Small-Scale Operations in China

China’s small-scale gold production sector demands efficient, modular solutions. A typical setup includes jaw crushers, hammer mills, ball mills, and centrifugal concentrators, designed for 1-5 TPH throughput. Key equipment parameters:

<50 kg/h Au concentrate

Equipment Model Capacity Power (kW)
Jaw Crusher PE-150×250 1-3 TPH 5.5
Hammer Mill PCΦ400×300 2-5 TPH 11
Ball Mill MQY900×1800 0.65-2 TPH 18.5
Cen. Concentrator S-TLF20 >0.75 kW

Aggregate Production Synergy

The same crushing units serve dual purposes—gold ore processing and aggregate production. Hammer mills generate 0-5mm sand for concrete, while jaw crushers produce 10-30mm gravel for construction.

FAQ Highlights:

– Q: Can this line process hard rock ores?
A: Yes, with tungsten carbide-lined crushers for quartz veins (up to Mohs 7).

– Q: Water recycling options?
A: Modular sedimentation tanks recover >85% process water.

Sichuan Case Study:

A 3TPH plant achieved 92% gold recovery using:
1) PE-200×350 jaw crusher → 2) Two-stage hammer milling → 3) Knelson concentrator + shaking table combo. Final sand byproduct met GB/T14684-2022 construction standards.

This integrated approach maximizes ROI for artisanal miners transitioning to mechanized operations while complying with China’s environmental regulations on tailings management.
