Fast Market Research announces the availability of the new Timetric report, "Base Metals Mining in Kazakhstan to 2020", on their comprehensive research portal
Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/29/2015 -- Mining has traditionally been an important industry for Kazakhstan's economy, with coal and copper being the two key commodities although zinc and other commodities are also significant. As of January 2015, Kazakhstan, with 6 million tonnes (Mt) of copper and 10Mt of zinc, had the world's 13th and seventh largest copper and zinc reserves respectively.
Report Highlights
-The East Kazakhstan and Karaganda regions have some of the country's significant copper deposits, such as the Yubileyno-Snegirikhinsky and Zhezkazgan mines, the latter having a total ore reserve base of 239.5Mt, with 0.6% copper grade at the end of 2013.
-Zinc reserves are mainly located in eastern and central Kazakhstan. Zinc is predominantly extracted from pyrite-polymetallic deposits from the Altai ore basin, developed by Kazzinc Ltd.
-In 2014, Kazakhstan's zinc mine (or metal content in the ore) production was an estimated 425,899t, down by 1.9% over 2013. This was due to a fall in production at the country's largest zinc producer, Kazzinc Ltd: the company produced 7.8% less than in 2013.
