Addressing Your Most Critical Gold Recovery Challenges
When evaluating a complete gold mining machinery sales package, operations face several interconnected challenges that directly impact profitability. Unplanned downtime in a primary crusher can cost between $15,000 and $50,000 per hour in lost production. Inconsistent recovery rates from poorly calibrated processing equipment can result in 5-15% of potential gold reporting to tailings. Furthermore, managing multiple equipment suppliers for a single circuit creates logistical complexity, extends commissioning timelines by weeks, and complicates after-sales service and parts procurement.
Are you experiencing these issues? How would your operation change with a single-source solution designed to eliminate compatibility gaps and maximize recovery efficiency from start to finish?
Product Overview: Integrated Gold Processing Plants
Our complete gold mining machinery sales offering provides a fully integrated processing circuit, from primary ore reception to final concentrate production. This turnkey solution is engineered for operational coherence and maximum gold yield.
The typical operational workflow involves three key stages:
- Primary Crushing and Sizing: Run-of-mine (ROM) ore is reduced to a consistent, conveyable size.
- Milling and Classification: The crushed ore is ground to a specific liberation mesh in a ball mill within a closed-circuit hydrocyclone system.
- Gold Recovery: The liberated gold is recovered via a tailored method, such as gravity separation (e.g., centrifugal concentrators) or leaching (e.g., CIL/CIP tanks), followed by electrowinning and smelting.
This solution is applicable for greenfield projects, plant expansions, and operations replacing aging, inefficient equipment. It is designed for hard rock lode deposits; alluvial/placer operations require a different configuration.

Application Scenarios
#### Mid-Tier Hard Rock Mine Expansion
- Challenge: An existing operation needed to double throughput but was constrained by space and incompatible legacy equipment. Downtime during tie-in was a critical financial risk.
- Solution: Implementation of a modular complete gold mining machinery sales plant designed for parallel operation, which was commissioned offline and connected during a planned maintenance shutdown.
- Results: Achieved full design capacity of +400 TPH within one week of final tie-in. The expansion increased overall gold production by 92%, with no disruption to existing output.
#### Artisanal & Small-Scale Mining (ASM) Upgrade Project
- Challenge: A cooperative was using mercury-based extraction with poor recovery (<40%) and significant environmental/human health risks.
- Solution: A compact, containerized complete gold mining machinery sales solution featuring crushing, milling, gravity concentration, and an IPJ cleaner cell for mercury-free processing.
- Results: Gold recovery increased to over 85%. The consistent concentrate produced commands a premium from ethical refiners. Environmental compliance was achieved immediately.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. How do you ensure technical compatibility with our existing infrastructure?
Our engineering team conducts a full site audit prior to proposal. We design the new circuit interface points—such as conveyor connections, power supply tie-ins, and tailings disposal—to integrate with your specific site conditions..jpg)
2. What is the typical operational impact during commissioning?
For greenfield sites or standalone plants, there is zero impact on existing production. For brownfield integrations, we develop a detailed phased implementation plan executed during planned outages to minimize operational disruption.
3. What are the lead times for critical spare parts?
We maintain a global network of distribution centers stocking high-wear items like pump impellers, mill liners,and screen panels. Our service level agreement guarantees shipment of critical spares within 24-48 hours from regional hubs..jpg)
4. Are training programs included for our operations team?
Yes. Every sale includes comprehensive classroom instruction at our facility or yours combined with hands-on operational training during the plant commissioning period under the guidance of our field service engineers.
5. Can the plant be relocated if the ore body is depleted?
The modular design facilitates disassembly relocation,and reassembly.A structural integrity assessment is recommended post-move,but core modules are engineered for at least one relocation cycle without major refurbishment.This protects your long-term capital investment in this complete gold mining machinery sales package
