Mines Prioritize Grinding Efficiency and Flotation Recovery
Cost Pressure Reshapes Grinding Media Choice
Mine operators are shifting from price-per-kg thinking to total cost of ownership as energy and reagent costs stay elevated. The result: a careful re-evaluation of grinding media — ball size, chrome content and cylpebs — matched to ore abrasiveness and pulp chemistry.
Flotation Consistency Becomes a Priority
With metal prices volatile, plants cannot afford recovery drift from inconsistent flotation reagents. Buyers now rank reagent consistency and technical support alongside unit price. A stable collector/frother program protects concentrate grade and tonnage month after month.
Richase Support
Richase Group Limited supplies grinding media and mineral-processing reagents with consistent chemistry and reliable delivery, and helps operations profile ore before recommending a media and reagent program.
