Known for its striking red hues and remarkable durability, granate is a group of silicate minerals widely used in abrasives, jewelry, and industrial applications. With a hardness ranging from 6.5 to 7.5 on the Mohs scale, garnet is valued for its toughness and diverse color spectrum.

Garnet Crushing and Screening Process Flow
1. Basic Process Framework
Objective: Process raw garnet ore into properly sized materials suitable for subsequent beneficiation operations.
- Pre-processing
Pre-screen raw garnet ore to remove oversized waste rocks (>30 mm) and surface-adhered soil impurities.
- Trituración primaria
Utilice trituradoras de mandíbula for coarse crushing to reduce ore size to a range suitable for secondary crushing.
- Secondary & Fine Crushing
Employ trituradoras de cono o roll crushers to further break down particles, minimizing needle/flake-shaped grains and improving isotropy.
- Grading & Screening
Separate crushed materials into specific size fractions via cribas vibratorias, directing each fraction to downstream processes.
2. Scenario-Specific Adaptations
Alluvial Garnet (Placer Deposits)
- Skip crushing; feed raw ore directly into depuradores trómel for clay removal.
- Screen into two fractions: 0–8mm and 8–30mm, followed by precision classification.
Hard-Rock Garnet (Primary Deposits)
- Add molienda post-primary crushing to achieve liberation size for mineral separation.
- Proceed to fine-mesh screening for particle size control.
High-End Abrasive Garnet
- Integrate shape optimization (e.g., vertical shaft impactors) post-crushing to enhance angularity and cubical grain formation.
3. Key Control Parameters
Particle Shape
Prioritize “jaw + roll crusher” configurations over hammer mills to reduce flaky particles (<15% by volume).
Screening Accuracy
-
- Implement screen mesh wear monitoring to prevent oversized/subsized contamination.
- Apply anti-static measures to minimize fine-particle blinding.
Size Compliance
-
- Enforce strict multi-deck vibrating screening with standardized mesh sizes to ensure narrow size distribution (±5% tolerance).
Nota: Adjust equipment parameters (e.g., crusher gaps, screen inclination) based on ore characteristics (e.g., hardness, clay content).
50TPH Garnet Crushing & Screening Process Plant
This is a complete set of 50TPH garnet crushing & screening process plant, mainly including 4 parts: feeding, crushing, screening, and re-screening.
Alimentación
Firstly, the garnet ore is fed into the raw ore feeding hopper. There is a vibrating feeder under the hopper, which can feed material to the jaw crusher evenly and smoothly.
Trituración
The jaw crusher is a primary crushing machine. The output material will be conveyed to the next secondary cone crusher to get finer material, then it goes to the tertiary crushing machine, a double roller crusher. The output from the roller crusher will be conveyed to the vibrating screen.
Proyección
Vibrating screen is a 3-layer screen with mesh size 4.5mm/12mm/25mm, under-screen material 0-4.5 mm goes to a linear vibrating screen for re-screening. Middle material 4.5-25 mm returns to the double roller crusher for crushing again. Over-screen +25 mm will convey back to the cone crusher.
Re-screening
The linear vibrating screen is a fine material screening machine. It has 2 layers(1 mm & 3 mm), which can screen out products 0-1 mm, 1-3 mm, 3-4.5 mm, as per the customer’s request.
