IsaMill, meeting the needs of the mining industry for over 20 years. Initially developed as the enabling technology for fine grained zinclead orebodies of McArthur River and Mount Isa deposits it was soon realised that this compact, highly energy efficient grinding machine could be equally applicable to a variety of other mineral applications and duties. In 20 years since technology development the IsaMill is now used in a range of metalliferous applications including base metals (copper, lead, zinc and nickel), PGMs, iron ore, industrial minerals, coal and gold processing, and is the optimum choice for regrinding, fine and ultrafine grinding and mainstream grinding duties. IsaMills were first installed at Mount Isa in 1994 – now over 125 IsaMills are installed and supported across six continents. With a full product range to suit the smallest applications (75 kW) to the largest (8 MW) backed up by a world class, global contingent of process and mechanical support staff, there is an IsaMill to suit your needs. “... our clients get more than just a mill, they become part of a technology partnership.” – Greg Anderson, IsaMill Technology Manager, Glencore Application of the IsaMill technology in gold processing started 15 years ago with the installation of 1.1 MW mills into KCGM’s Gidji and Fimiston operations. The current installation of the 3 MW IsaMill complements these first commercial installations.
