Circulating Load Equation
So do a material balance around the circuit, figure out the mass flow rate of solids in the cyclone underflow and divide that by the mass flow of solids in the circuit feed. You can then get more complicated if you want, and track the circulating load of some sub-fraction, the water, radioactive tracers or whatever.
Grinding time for ball mills
First you need the volumetric capacity of the mill, this is the volume of the mill at rest where the ore just reaches the discharge level (often about 1/3 of the internal volume). From this you need to subtract the volume of the grinding media. You now have the unit capacity. Then take the volumetric feed rate of the new ore per time.
