Overview of Wet Grinding Mills: Simple Structure, Reliable Performance
What is a Wet Grinding Mill?
A wet grinding mill, often called a gold mill or wet pan mill, is a traditional but highly efficient grinding device that utilizes the principle of roller grinding. Its core structure includes a sturdy base, two heavy-duty grinding rollers, and a circular grinding pan. During operation, an electric motor drives the grinding rollers to roll on the grinding pan, using immense pressure and friction to grind the ore slurry (a mixture of ore and water) in the pan to the desired fineness, preparing it for subsequent cyanidation, amalgamation, or gravity separation processes.
Why is it particularly suitable for gold refining?
Gold ore usually has high toughness and density, and the unique integrated crushing-grinding-mixing working method of the wet grinding mill effectively separates gold minerals from gangue. Its wet operation environment is not only dust-free but also continuously forms a slurry, which is very beneficial for subsequent extraction processes. Compared to large ball mills, it has lower investment costs and simpler operation and maintenance, making it especially suitable for processing gold-bearing quartz veins and other ores.

Four Core Advantages of Choosing Our Wet Grinding Mills
1. Excellent Cost-Effectiveness
With 20 years of design and manufacturing experience, we have optimized every process from casting and heat treatment to assembly. Through large-scale production and supply chain management, while ensuring that core components (such as grinding rollers and grinding pans) use wear-resistant materials such as high-chromium alloy, we effectively control costs, providing customers with the most competitively priced high-quality wet grinding mills on the market.
2. Outstanding Wear Resistance and Long Service Life
Quality is reflected in durability. The key wear parts of our wet grinding mills are made of specially formulated high-hardness alloy steel, and undergo a scientific heat treatment process, resulting in wear resistance several times higher than that of ordinary materials. This means lower frequency of spare parts replacement and a longer equipment service life, leading to lower total cost of ownership in the long run.
3. High Recovery Rate and Stable Grinding Fineness
The stability of equipment operation directly affects the gold recovery rate. Our wet grinding mill design ensures uniform and continuous grinding force, producing a slurry with uniform particle size that meets requirements, thereby maximizing the exposure of gold particles and creating optimal conditions for subsequent chemical or physical gold refining and capture steps, helping to achieve a higher overall recovery rate.
4. Simple Operation and Convenient Maintenance
A simple structure means fewer failure points. Our equipment is easy to install, intuitive to operate, and daily maintenance only requires attention to lubrication and the condition of wear parts. Even if the grinding wheels or grinding plates need to be replaced, the modular design makes maintenance quick and easy, minimizing downtime.

Success Story: The Best Proof of Reliability
In a medium-sized gold mine project in Ghana, Africa, the client's previously used equipment had low grinding efficiency and severe wear. After replacing it with two wet grinding mills provided by us, not only was the initial investment cost reduced by approximately 30%, but the stable discharge fineness also increased the gold refining recovery rate of the entire processing plant by approximately 8%. The equipment has been running continuously and stably for over 18 months, and the client highly praised its affordable price and excellent quality.
Related Equipment Recommendations: Building a Complete Gold Processing Flow
A single grinding equipment needs to be combined with other equipment to achieve maximum efficiency. We recommend that you combine the wet grinding mill with the following equipment to form an efficient production line:
• Jaw Crusher: As a primary crushing equipment, it first crushes large ore blocks to a particle size suitable for feeding into the wet grinding mill.
• Centrifugal Gold Concentrator/Shaking Table: Used to recover coarse and fine gold particles from the slurry discharged from the wet grinding mill through gravity separation. • Gold Refining Tank/Electrolysis Equipment: Used for the final refining and purification of gold concentrate.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What is the difference between a wet mill and a ball mill, and which one is more suitable for me?
A1: The main differences lie in the working principle and investment cost. Wet mills use crushing and grinding, resulting in lower energy consumption and more economical investment and operating costs, making them particularly suitable for small and medium-sized projects seeking high cost-effectiveness. Ball mills typically have higher output, but also higher investment and energy consumption. If you are a startup mine or have a moderate processing volume, a wet mill is often a more affordable and efficient option.
Q2: What types of gold ore can your wet mills process?
A2: Our wet mills are very suitable for processing various gold-bearing ores, especially gold-bearing quartz vein ore and oxidized gold ore. For placer gold deposits, they are usually used in conjunction with crushing equipment. Before ordering, we recommend that you provide ore samples for grindability testing so that we can recommend the most suitable model and configuration for you.
Q3: What kind of delivery and installation support do you provide?
A3: We provide complete export services, from equipment packaging and sea freight to the destination port. We will provide detailed foundation drawings, installation manuals, and operation videos. For large orders, we can dispatch engineers for on-site installation guidance and technical training to ensure smooth commissioning.
