Yenipazar zinc mine

Yenipazar is a polymetallic deposit that contains Au, Cu, Pb and Zn within the minerals chalcopyrite, galena, sphalerite and the Zn – bearing silicate minerals gahnite. The mining method proposed will be a conventional open pit mine and a differential flotation circuit that will produce a copper, lead and zinc concentrate and gold dore. The project is expected to come into production by 2024 with a mine life of 12 years.
