These are shown in Figure 52 for a key size marker, the percent passing 75 µm in the mill discharge. Figure 52 - Surface plots of AG product -75 µm (%) at mill power draws of (a) 120 kW and (b) 130 kW (reproduced from Vizcarra et al. (2018)). The results indicated that reducing excessive fines production could in fact be achieved by (a) (b)
