Hey guys, my name's Jason with Mount Baker Mining and Metals and today we're gonna
be running a sample of these oyster shells through one of our six by ten jaw
crushers, and the goal here is to crush these up and liberate this rope so it
can be hand picked out from the shell after it's crushed. So let's get this
thing fired up we'll see how it goes.
So I wasn't really happy with the throughput through the jaw crusher, so
now we're gonna try the same oyster shells with rope attached to one of our
16 by 12 hammer mills with no screen and see how that works.
So here's the rope and shell after the hammer mill, and as you can see it ran
way away faster to hammer mill I was much happier with the throughput from
the hammer mill. But the rope came came clean, it didn't roll up or bind up in
the hammer mill at all because there wasn't any screen. The shells I think
actually I crushed a little bit finer than to the jaw crusher, so I think
overall it was a great test. Tight now we're working with one of the largest
oyster growers on the west coast to help solve their issue of this rope which
they're telling us is one of the biggest environmental problems they have in the
industry today. And they're looking for our primary crusher to liberate the rope
in the shell, and then a secondary crusher that's going to take the broken
shell with no rope and crush it down to fine powder so they can use it in their
in their growing operation. So I hope you guys enjoyed the video if you have any
questions or comments please let us know. You can find our contact info in the
description below. So thanks for watching and we'll see
on the next one.
