Gülsoy, H. Benzer CONCLUSIONS In this study, the performance of the existing grinding circuit in Madneuli copper plant was determined. The results showed that the existing performance of the grinding circuit could be improved and the fineness of the flotation feed could be increased to the desired value. Two alternatives were proposed.

By intensifying the amount of grinding power within the circuit, a finer grind size (similar to the width of a human hair) has been achieved to maintain the same throughput volumes, while preserving copper recovery. Originally designed in the early 1970's, only a handful of components differ between the new and existing mills onsite.
