Lead and zinc are usually found together in mines; almost 70% of total global mine production of lead comes from reserves that contain both minerals. Thus, lead concentrate is produced inevitably when producing zinc concentrate; there is a strong correlation between the mine output of these metals. Since zinc is more abundant in the Earth’s crust, lead and zinc mines generally contain more zinc than lead.

Product Description

With a GDP of $415 billion in 2019, Iran was the third largest economy in the region that year. While the country’s economy was steadily growing after the drop in 2012 due to the sanctions, it dipped once again in 2019 thanks to the return of the sanctions. Iran is one of the largest producers of lead and zinc in the world; Angouran mine in Zanjan province is one of the rarest mines in the world, with high-grade oxide ore. On this account, multiple lead and zinc ore processing plants have been developed in the country. Currently, most of the country’s zinc output is exported as ingots, while lead is exported in concentrate form.

Market drivers of Iran’s lead and zinc concentrate

Refined zinc output is mostly from mine production. Thus, refined demand can significantly affect the concentrate market. Further, stronger demand for galvanized steel over the coming years will support the zinc market.

The market for galvanized steel is growing in the region. Demand for galvanized steel is expected to grow with the expanding population and the increasing urbanization. Since refined zinc is not easily available in most countries in the region, a major portion of their demand is expected to be met through imports from Iran. This will boost demand for zinc concentrate.

A major portion of refined lead production in Iran comes from recycled batteries. Imports have always been a major source of old batteries for refined zinc producers in Iran; as the trade of batteries was restricted over the recent years, producers resorted to using lead concentrate. The trade restrictions are expected to be implemented more strictly over the coming years, limiting the availability of batteries to refined producers.

Overview of Iran’s lead and zinc concentrate market

Owing to rich reserves, mine production of lead and zinc in Iran has increased over the past years. However, the US sanctions and trade restrictions have put pressure on output over the recent years. As sanctions ease in the coming years, output of lead and zinc concentrate is expected to grow.

Breakdown of Iran’s lead and zinc concentrate market

Iran’s lead and zinc concentrate market is categorized in terms of oxide and sulfide ore. Mine production is also analyzed separately for major mines. Angouran, Mehdiabad, Gooshfil, Nakhlak, Sormeh, and Kooshk are some of the major lead and zinc mines in Iran.
