Vedanta Says India Unit’s Zinc Output Up 40% In Fourth Quarter

Diversified miner Vedanta Resources Plc on Tuesday (11 April) said the refined zinc production at its India unit rose nearly 40 per cent in the fourth quarter, boosted by higher output at a mine in Rajasthan.

Refined zinc production rose to 215,000 tonne in the quarter ended 31 March, from 154,000 tonne a year earlier, the company said in a statement.

Full-year integrated zinc production at its Indian unit fell 12 per cent to 670,000 tonne due to lower availability of mined metal in the first half of the year, Vedanta said.
