CEZinc 

 Description

CEZinc is an electrolytic zinc production facility. The facility is well located for receiving zinc concentrates by rail or by boat and benefits from its proximity to its North American zinc consumers.

 Brief history of the operation

CEZinc commenced operations in 1963 with a capacity of 65,000 tonnes/year. The Noranda Income Fund (Fund) was created in 2002 to acquire the assets of CEZinc and operate it as an income trust. Xstrata holds 25% of the units of the Fund and provides management services and concentrate supply for the operations.
