Rayalu Stenographer Grade-II Prepared by MINERAL ECONOMICS DIVISION PREFACE The present report on ‘Market Survey on Lead & Zinc” is the 34th publication in the series of Market Survey Reports brought out by the Mineral Economics Division of the Bureau in continuation to the Market Survey on Copper. The lead and zinc metals has also witnessed the volatility in prices like copper that attracts the attention to study the entire gamut of raw material security of resources, production scenario both on international as well as national front. The upsurge in infrastructure development has resulted in increased demand of zinc whereas the requirement of lead acid batteries for automobiles as well as power back up systems has resulted in huge demand of lead. Looking at the domestic demand and the fact that HZL is the only primary supplier of lead and zinc, it was felt necessary to take up the study on lead and zinc metals. In this survey, domestic demand has been forecast. The supply position analysing the resources and production in the country has been dealt with in detail. The scrap processing industry to augment the supply position for meeting both the domestic demand and export market is also discussed. An attempt has also been made to analyse the foreign markets. The co-operation extended by various Central and State Government Departments, producers, processors and consumers of lead and zinc and the agencies concerned with trade, National laboratories and different manufacturers’ associations who responded to our questionnaires is thankfully acknowledged. We are also thankful to Central Pollution Control Board, State Pollution Control Boards, Bombay Non Ferrous Metal Association Ltd., and India Lead-Zinc Development Association (ILZDA), New Delhi for their co-operation. Our thanks are also due to the Indian Embassies and Foreign Embassies in India who responded to our request for information. It is hoped that this Market Survey Report on Lead & Zinc will be useful to the producers, exporters, processors, consumers and planners to formulate export strategies.
