Mipac has published a new addition to its growing series of practical guides for mining professionals: A Guide to SAG Mill Management. This resource is designed to help operations teams unlock the full potential of their SAG mills; boosting throughput, protecting equipment, and improving downstream recovery.
The guide explores foundational and advanced control strategies, from feed rate and mill speed adjustments to Model Predictive Control (MPC) and Advanced Process Control (APC). It also addresses common myths and FAQs, offering clarity on instrumentation, automation, and implementation timelines.
“SAG mill control is often underestimated, but it’s one of the biggest levers for improving plant performance,” said Eddie De Rivera, Mipac Managing Director. “This guide helps teams move beyond guesswork and build control systems that deliver consistent, measurable results.”
The guide complements Mipac’s existing thought leadership resources on flotation, leaching, smelter operations, and control system upgrades.
