Guangxi Typhoon Has No Immediate Impact on Local Zinc Smelter Production

Affected by the 10th typhoon this year, "Maysak," many areas in Guangxi were hit by continuous heavy rainfall. Places including Fangchenggang, Qinzhou, Guigang, and Nanning experienced rainstorms to heavy rainstorms, with locally extreme rainstorms, causing severe waterlogging in some urban areas, surging river levels, and risks at multiple reservoirs. Based on this, SMM conducted a survey of zinc smelters in Guangxi and learned that production has not been affected yet, but severe port waterlogging has hindered the transportation of raw materials and finished products. It is also learned that in July, some lead-zinc mines in Guangxi have already suspended production for maintenance due to the impact of the rainy season.

Layer 3: Capacity and inventory collapse – war-damaged Middle Eastern production facilities are slow to restart.
