China’s zinc ingot output is expected to remain flat at 5.53 million tonnes in 2016 compared with 2015, an SMM zinc analyst said at the 2016 (11th) Shanghai Lead & Zinc Summit March 17.

SHANGHAI, Mar. 18 (SMM) – China’s zinc ingot output is expected to remain flat at 5.53 million tonnes in 2016 compared with 2015, an SMM zinc analyst said at the 2016 (11th) Shanghai Lead & Zinc Summit March 17.

TCs of domestic zinc concentrate are expected to fall. China has 260,000-tpy new zinc smelting capacity in 2015, and 280,000-tpy in 2016. But these capacities contributed limited output. Moreover, some zinc smelters including Zhuzhou Smelter slashed output.
