Bolanos zinc mine

In 2015, Bolaños operated the El Alacran underground mine and a conventional Pb-Zn flotation plant, with an actual capacity of 35kt/month (420kt/a) and there are not any expansion plans in place. Until the end of 2012 Bolaños processed some old tailings. Since then only fresh ore from the underground mine has been milled.
