AUTOGENOUS AND SEMIAUTOGENOUS MILLS
2010 UPDATE
ABSTRACT
This paper is derived from a document that compiles autogenous and semi-autogenous mill
installations worldwide, through the end of 2010. Updates have been solicited from all major mill
manufacturers and most have responded.
A review of AG/SAG mills sold to date and in the last five years indicates that the AG/SAG mill
market is very healthy and the trend is larger diameter mills with high diameter-to-length ratios. Ring
motors (gearless) are the preferred drives for large mills even though the power transmitted through a gear
drive is expected to near 11,000 kW per pinion in the near future.

INTRODUCTION
This paper is derived from a document that compiles autogenous and semi-autogenous mill
installations worldwide. The list is maintained by Stuart M. Jones, Jr. (author), and is included in the
appendix. This list has been the inspiration for similar papers in the past several SAG Conferences.
Updates have been solicited from all major mill manufacturers and most have responded. Information
from this list is compiled to illustrate the growth of the AG/SAG mill market and the use by industry and
selected geographic areas. It covers the market growth through the end of 2010.
Although this presentation is general in nature, it provides good basic reference information. The
AG/SAG list is a living document and is updated regularly.
DEFINITIONS
An Autogenous (AG) Mill is a tumbling mill which utilizes the ore itself as grinding media. For
some ores, an autogenous mill combines the size reduction steps of crushing, coarse grinding and fine
grinding. Ore which can be ground autogenously is said to be amenable to autogenous grinding. The ore
must contain sufficient competent pieces to act as grinding media.
2|Page
A Semiautogenous (SAG) Mill utilizes steel balls in addition to the natural grinding media. The
addition of balls (typically 6 to 12 percent by mill volume of 100 mm diameter or 125 mm diameter balls)
increases the ability of the mill to deal with ores of varying hardness characteristics and varying amounts
of natural grinding media. A semiautogenous mill can effectively treat a wide variety of feed materials.
These mills are ideal for the scrubbing and coarse grinding of wet sticky ores to prepare feed for final
grind in a ball mill. They are also used in single stage grinding of ores to a final product size.
Each type of mill should be described in a consistent manner. Inconsistencies still exist with
respect to mill dimensions, leading to occasional confusion. It is highly recommended that mills should
be designated by inside shell diameter times inside shell length following with the length inside liners
(effective grinding chamber length) in parenthesis following the length. This is illustrated in Figure 1.
Figure 1 Definition of Mill Diameter D, Mill Length L, and Effective Grinding Length EGL
An example would be an 11 m x 4.5 m (4.2 m EGL) 9,000 kW SAG mill. This should
clearly dimension the mill for both the mechanical designer and the process engineer. If
everyone uses such dimensions, confusion will be minimized.

Table 1 First of its kind AG/SAG mills
2010 - Metso has sold the largest SAG mill to date, a 12.8 m x 7.62 m 6.86 m EGL (42 ft x 25 ft 22.5
ft EGL) 28 MW (37,520 HP) Gearless SAG mill to Newmont Mining Corporation for their Yanacocha
Minas Congas Gold-Copper project in Peru.
2010 - The largest dual pinion drive was sold by FLSmidth with an 11.0 m (36 ft) diameter SAG mill in
Canada at 2 x 7,500 kW (2 x 10,055 HP).
2007 - FLSmidth has sold the largest Ball Mills to follow a SAG mill, two 8.53 m x 13.6 m (28 ft x 44.5
ft) 22 MW (29,480 HP) Gearless Ball Mills for the Antofagasta Minerals, Esperanza project in Chile.
2007 - CITIC has sold the largest value AG Mill order for ultimately six 12.2 m x 11.0 m (40 ft x 36 ft) -
28 MW (37,550 HP) Gearless AG Mills for the CP Mining project in Australia.
2006 - Metso has sold the worlds largest AG and Pebble Mills for an expansion at the Boliden Aitik mine
in Sweden. The mills include two 11.6 m x 13.7 m (38 ft x 45ft) 22.6 MW (30,300 HP) Gearless AG
Mills and two 9.14 m x 11.6 m (30 ft x 38 ft) 10 MW (13,400 HP) Pebble Mills.
In the last 5 years, the grinding mill market (and in particular the AG/SAG mill market) has
experienced tremendous growth. It peaked at record levels in 2006. Orders for 2006 and 2007 combined
almost exceeded the total for the ten previous years. In 2008 and 2009, the global economic recession held
capital purchases for mining to a lower level, but recovery was well underway in 2010 and there are many
large projects (involving AG/SAG mills) in the planning stage in 2011. AG/SAG mill market in the last
50 years is shown in Figure 2.

Figure 2 AG/SAG mill Installed Power Sold in the last 50 years
Grouping the above data to coincide with SAG Conferences shows tremendous growth in mining
in the last 5 years as evidenced in Figure 3. The last 5 years average 3 to 4 times the previous periods.
Figure 3 AG/SAG mill Installed Power Sold in the last six 5-year periods
Through December 2010, over 1500 AG/SAG type mills were sold. To date, the total installed
power is close to 5,000 MW as shown in Figure 4. This is an amazing 49% increase in installed power
sold in the last five years. This practically means that approximately a third of all AG/SAG installed
power has been sold in the past five years.

Figure 4 Cumulative Installed Power Sold until 2010
Figure 5 shows the installed power sold by ore type. In the last five years, copper has taken the
lead from gold as the most mined ore (even though orebodies often contain both copper and gold).
Copper, gold, and iron mining dominated all other ore mining combined.
Figure 6 shows the top 10 countries buying AG/SAG milling for the period from 2006 to 2010.

Table 2 summarizes the top 10 countries buying AG/SAG mills within the last four 5-year periods.
Figure 7 shows the installed power sold based on mill diameter. The 12.2 m (40 ft) mills have
been very popular with a total of 21 units sold so far.

Figure 7 Large AG/SAG mill Installations
AG/SAG milling has taken its place as an important alternative in the process of comminution.
Size reduction is the most expensive operation in most concentrators accounting for 60 to 70 percent of
the total concentrator operating costs. Selection of the optimum size reduction methods is essential to the
financial success of a mine. The design of most large new mining concentrators includes the use of
AG/SAG milling for size reduction. Almost all medium size operations and many small operations
consider AG/SAG milling as well. These types of mills will continue to be installed wherever new mines
are developed.
AG/SAG mills are available in various types of basic configurations. The North American style
mills have high diameter (D) to length (L) ratios typically 2:1 or greater. The European and South African
mills have low D/L ratios of 1:1 or less. Each type of mill has its appropriate application. For some
applications the low D/L ratio mill creates a product with higher surface area while consuming more
power per ton of product. The initial cost of low D/L mills is less than high D/L mills.
From the installation list, we can see that majority of the installed power comes from high D/L
ratio mills. During the past five years, 87% of the mill power purchased came from high D/L ratio mills.
Part of this statistical lean toward the high D/L ratio mills has been due to the very high powered high D/L
mills which have been designed and sold, 22 in the 20 megawatt class in the past five years. In response to
market wishes, mill builders have offered designs for larger low D/L ratio AG/SAG mills. The largest sold
to date are 11.6 m x 13.7 m (38 ft x 45 ft) - 22,600 kW (30,300 HP) Gearless AG Mills. Still, most of
these mills are 5,000kW or smaller.

MILL DRIVES
The optimum selection of drives for AG/SAG mills is important for both the economics of the
project and the successful operation of the plant. Gear manufacturers adjust their capabilities as larger
machines become available. The largest gear drive we have identified is 8,490 kW. This is higher than the
7,500 kW pinions mentioned five years ago. Ring motor drives (gearless) have been formally sold for as
large as 28,000kW. Larger motors are available. The drive selection is often site specific.
Gear driven AG/SAG mills have been sold from as small as 110 kW to as large as 15,000 kW
(20,115 HP). Ring Motor driven (gearless) SAG mills have been sold in sizes from 8,200 kW (11,000 HP)
through 27,980 kW (37,520 HP).
The first SAG mill to utilize ring motor design were the two 9.75 m x 5.18 m (4.57 m EGL) -
8,200 kW SAG mills sold to Chuquiquamata in Chile in 1986. Today a total of 72 ring motor driven SAG
mills have been sold, the largest rated at 27,980 kW (37,520 HP). In the past five years, 40 ring motor
driven AG/SAG mills have been added to the list. The significance of Ring Motor design is important
because mills are no longer limited by drive constraints. It remains to be seen whether the latest 12.8 m
(42 ft) diameter SAG mill will be a new standard for large mills, or whether larger diameters will follow.
In 2006, many suggested that HPGR technology would replace AG/SAG mills in the future.
Reviewing AG/SAG mill progress since our last paper, we note that in the last 5 years, the 11.6 m (38 ft)
mill population has grown from 8 to 18, the 12.2m (40 ft) mill population has grown from 2 to 15, and a
new 12.8m (42 ft) mill has been added to our list. We have seen no demise of the AG/SAG mill. These
Ring Motors driving these giant mills range from 18 to 28 MW. Of these large mills (11.6 m to 12.8 m),
16 are in South America (Peru, Chile, Brazil), 8 are in Australia, 2 are in Canada, and the others are in
9|Page
Kazakhstan, Pakistan, Sweden, Mexico, Panama, Mongolia, Indonesia, and Zambia. These large mills
make it possible to process as much as 144,000 metric tons per day (mtpd) of ore in a single grinding line
at interesting savings over the cost of a multiline plant.
The census of AG/SAG mills confirms that most recent installations are processing copper, gold,
iron ore, zinc, and nickel. Most large AG/SAG mills are variable speed. Variable speed is inherent with
ring motor electronics. There is some justification for use of a variable speed drive to allow the operator to
make speed adjustments as ore hardness changes. When soft ores are encountered, the SAG mill load can
drop rapidly and liners can be damaged if the mill is not slowed down. It is common for SAG mills today
to have variable speed drives. It is however an expensive option with conventional motor drives.
Mill designs are off the shelf today for a SAG mill of up to 28 MW followed by two Ball Mills of
up to 24 MW. It is possible to have a single processing line capable of handling of over 200,000 mtpd of
ore.
CONCLUSION
The AG/SAG mill market has been presented. The SAG mill (and in a limited way the AG mill)
will continue to be applied in the mining industry in a wide variety of applications. SAG mills and ball
mills in the mining industry will continue to grow in size with SAG mills up to 30,000 kW and ball mills
as large as 24,000 kW. Conceptual design and pricing has been developed for Gearless SAG Mills of
13.4 m (44 ft) diameter with 32 MW (42,900 HP) and Gearless Ball Mills of 9.1 m (30 ft) diameter and 28
MW (37,500 HP). Single grinding lines will process 200,000 mtpd of ore and more.
Large gear driven mills will approach 11,000 kW in single pinion drives and 22,000 kW in dual
pinion drives. Ring Motor drives will become more common as engineers begin to understand the
convenience and long term savings possible with these drives. However, due to various motor failures
during the past few years, more motor maintenance time need to be factored in with these type of drives.
Small concentrators will utilize SAG milling to a greater degree in either low aspect or high
aspect ratio designs depending on economics. Computer modeling will help us better understand, better
apply, and better utilize these mills. Advanced computer control of the concentrator will help us obtain a
better return from equipment investments.
Thank you to all mill suppliers who have contributed data and added value to our installations
list. The authors welcome additions and/or corrections at any time.
