ZALTA™ GRINDING AIDS

Zalta grinding aids are designed to work in these demanding environments. Based on proprietary chemistry, this family of products reduces ore cohesion and adhesion throughout the grinding circuit, increasing throughput and eliminating production bottlenecks.

ZALTA™ GRINDING AIDS
As high-grade ore deposits become depleted, mining companies must frequently tap into lower-quality ore. Accessing these ore bodies is often difficult and complex. Advanced chemistries and more energy are required to process and extract the ore’s most valuable elements.
 
Zalta grinding aids are designed to work in these demanding environments. Based on proprietary chemistry, this family of products reduces ore cohesion and adhesion throughout the grinding circuit, increasing throughput and eliminating production bottlenecks.
 
Zalta grinding aids lead to gains in grinding productivity by reducing cohesion and adhesion in the ore slurry. This decreases the viscosity and/or yield stress as the slurry moves through the ball mill, improving grindability by both cascading motion and freefall ball-striking motion.
 
Key benefits include:
 
Improved ore throughput in grinding circuit
Reduced energy at a given throughput
Improved extraction
Reduced maintenance
Improved environmental performance
Decreased capital expenditures
