A Brief Summary of Zinc Oxide Processing Methods

2017-6-19 Two plants processing zinc oxide ore had been in operation but are now close due to mine exhaust. Padeang (Thailand) with 70,000 tpy zinc metal and Skorpion (Namibia) with 150,000 tpy zinc metal. Padeang ore was similar to the Bongará oxide deposit (calamine: 23% zinc) whereas the Skorpion ore is a clay containing 10% zinc.
