A SAG mill, or semi-autogenous grinding mill, is a type of machine used in mining and mineral processing operations. It uses the crushing and grinding action of rocks to reduce materials such as copper ore into smaller pieces for further processing. Unlike traditional mills that rely on steel balls or other media to break down materials, SAG ...
