Webinar overview

In this Insights webinar, Rob MacDonald, Molycop Vice President – Cast High Chrome Media, will provide a clear, practical overview of when and where Cast High Chrome is the right choice. Rob will explore the product’s properties, best-fit applications and how it complements rather than replaces forged media, giving mining professionals greater flexibility in choosing the right media for their circuits.

The webinar will focus on the growing role of Cast High Chrome grinding media in modern comminution circuits. As mines look for smarter ways to improve efficiency and reduce operating costs, Cast High Chrome has become an increasingly important option. With its wear resistance, reduced corrosion potential and suitability for applications such as gold, copper and regrind circuits, it offers performance benefits that can make a real difference in plant operations.

According to Rob:
This is about choice. High chrome isn’t here to replace forged – it’s here to give customers another proven option that can unlock value in the right applications.
Molycop’s investment in dedicated high chrome manufacturing capacity, including its new Cikande facility in Indonesia, reinforces the company's long-term commitment to providing customers with choice, quality and local supply.
