A method includes separating, in a first stage of separating, crushed ore material by size into a first fines stream and a first coarse stream; grinding the first coarse stream in a second stage of grinding; feeding the product of the second stage of grinding back to the step of separating; feeding the first fines stream from the step of separating to a recovery circuit; producing a rejected stream from the recovery circuit of crushed ore material that does not meet the target mineral size; separating, in a second stage of separating, the rejected stream from the recovery circuit into a second fines stream and a second coarse stream; grinding the second coarse stream in a third stage of grinding; and feeding the product of the third stage of grinding back to the recovery circuit.

A grinding plant, comprising: a first mill (10), arranged to grind a product having a greater grain size, provided with an inlet (11) and an outlet (12); a second mill (20), arranged to grind the product to a smaller grain size, provided with an inlet (21) and an outlet (22); wherein the product in outlet from the first mill (10) is fed to the second mill (20). The plant further comprises a screen (30), interposed between the two mills (10, 20).
