— Hearn concluded by saying that "the traditional use of steel liners in large SAG mills presents a number of challenges. For instance, there may be bending stress inside the steel liner due to inexact fitting on the mill's curved surface, and the higher rigidity of steel compared to rubber makes it less than optimal for absorbing the energy ...

— The main goal of a SAG mill is to maximize ore treatment. However, the objective of how many mass that the mill can process is limited. Some conditions, such as excessive ore volume, composition, particle size distribution, hardness, underestimated spin speed, incorrect percent solids, among others, can lead to overload.
