A global life cycle assessment for primary zinc production

Zinc concentrate is sold as a commodity, so depending on market forces, a zinc smelter may process zinc concentrate from a variety of mines. How the supply chain is linked has an impact on transportation assumptions. In 2009, the assumption was made that smelting companies used concentrate produced at their own mines.

Iron processing

Most processes rely on density differences to separate light minerals from heavier ones, so the ore is crushed and ground to release the ore minerals from the gangue. Magnetic techniques also are used. The upgraded ore, or concentrate, is in the form of a very fine powder that is physically unsuitable for blast furnace use.
