Extending zinc production possibilities through solvent …

To date many primary zinc ores have not been treated due to their low zinc content that does not allow processing by the traditional RLE process. With the MZP 11–15 it is possible to treat these raw materials because the MZP solvent extraction circuit will produce an electrolyte that can be processed in any EW tankhouse.
