Langlois was an underground polymetallic mine producing zinc, copper and silver. Ore was treated in a 2.5kt/d plant utilising differential flotation to produce separate Cu and Zn concentrates. The mine is owned by Nyrstar following the acquisition of Breakwater Resources in 2011. It has had a stop-start history with operations having been suspended a few times since its first commissioning in 1996. The mine has been under care and maintenance since December 2019.
