Metso has signed an agreement for the supply of metallic mill linings for SAG mills and Megaliner™ mill linings for ball mills to a copper and gold mine in South-East Asia.
The customer selected Metso’s metallic mill lining solutions after a performance test; it said in a statement.
In the test, Metso’s linings achieved better grinding efficiency, higher throughput, and lower energy consumption than linings from another supplier, the statement noted.
