The argument is simple, as Outotec's Lynch-Watson succinctly noted: "Rejecting waste rock early is the most direct way to reduce comminution cost. When done properly, preconcentration can actually increase recovery, leading to a real win-win scenario: less power consumption and more metal production."

1. Introduction. The high energy consumption of crushing is one of the main motivations to study the comminution of minerals. Tromans [1] listed several examples of energy consumption per country, showing that the energy spent in comminution constituted 1–16.7% of the total energy consumed by the industry. The exact value depends on the proportion of the …
Excessive energy consumption, material variability, inefficient size reduction, fines generation, sticky and wet materials, large civil works, unplanned maintenance or downtime and other aggregate crushing challenges can derail a plant's profitability.

Other cases of target functions can be: minimum power consumption with a restriction of a specific flow, maximum flow with a restriction of power consumption, minimum power consumption with a restriction of a given reduction ratio, among others. 2.3.3. Case study for this paper: jaw crushers
Whereas crushing is usually a dry process, grinding is usually performed wet to provide a slurry (liquid) feed to the chemical concentration process [15]. With rock reduced to a manageable size by crushing, grinding mills then reduce the rock even more to a particle size that makes chemical processing viable.
